Guys, I'm sorry, but it looks like a Scion. Dodge, you guys are killing me. I pray that no other car companies get the bright idea to go "Scion"
Now, Dodge Rams... Those are sexy. From past to present. Though I'm slightly less pleased with the 2006, still the sexiest truck on the road.

Silver, interesting first post... why bother??
agreed X2
i always have to wonder why people without a life have to go onto other fourms and bitch complain or cut down another vehicle...and by the way silver i had a ram back in 96 when the style was new and fresh and not basically the same old design for the past 12 years.............D'OHH look im bitching now

What is wrong with looking like a big Scion. I also think they are cool.
+1 they look closer to a Range Rover Sport.brickyard1911 said:Not close to a Scion in my opinion. Looks more like the small Range Rover to me.
I see a couple similarities with other vehicles, but a Scion? I still can't see that one, where, what? LOL
I have a close friend that has a Scion. Nice car, sorta' an iPod extension for him. But as a Nitro owner I gotta' say that a quick ride in Scion will tell you just how very different a car the Nitro actually is. And for looks - Nitro wins hands down.
Silver,
A Scion... seriously, a Scion. Have you really ever even walked up and looked at a Nitro! I'm not knocking the Scion but it's a small overly boxy, close to the ground thing. The Nitro's grill alone is more truck than a Scion (no offense). Let alone all the styling stuff you get on the Nitro like the Rover style louvered fenders, and the height, and the ride, and the fact the designers obviously had the popularity of the Range Rover and Hummer on their mind while designing it. Has anyone ever said... hey that Scion looks a lot like a Range Rover? Don't think so. Okay they're both more square than round but then so's a freight train.
Scion = Honda Element... Nitro = Range Rovers little brother! Who agrees?

Have never seen a scion in person have seen the honda toaster er element & to try and say a Nitro is like either that person needs a trip to the eye doc real soon.
How the heck can you compare a P/U to the Nitro in the first place????
Mine is called the "Nitro Babe Hauler" = Wife's vehicle...

I think that a lot of the exterior has striking similarities to the range rover, but the H3 as well...
Dodge has done very well coming out with vehicals that bring a lot to the table. They pull some from the past... add on new inovation and do a little style copying of the hottest most hip things on the road right now. Magnum, Charger, Caliber and now the best of the line as far as I'm concerned... THE NITRO! Side note: I tested the Caliber it was good looking & fun to drive with good space... but just not big & bold enough in the looks department for me. Now when I think of something big & bad do I think Range Rover/Hummer or Scion... hmmm? LoL!
I have to agree Nitro looks more like a Land Rover or a Hummer 2 than a Scion, The Scion is TOOOOOO square and Low riding. Much more bang for the buck than a Scion. I am not knocking the SCION but it is more of a Teenagers car the The Nitro is for grown ups LOL!
Grown ups with an attitude... LOL! I drove around all day today and had people coming up in parking lots all over asking about the new Nitro. Even the guys from Advanced Auto Parts came out to check out the new ride... so I bought something from 'em. A custom black steering wheel cover that has Dodge Motorsports embosed in red with the checkered flag @ 12:00, 4:00 & 8:00 on the wheel. Looks gooooooooood!

Thought the EXACT same thing. One of the reasons why i'm buying one. I can't afford the RR sport
It could be worse. We could be driving commanders around. Why did Jeep make them so UGLY?

My fahter just recently purchased a Nitro. I thought that for the price, the Nitro has exceptionally good styling and aesthetic appeal. I love the powerful body shape, the height, and those Range Roveresque vented fenders. This is a HOTTT vehicle...
