After several reports that the Avenger was going away, new rumors suggest that the Avenger will live on as a performance-oriented, real wheel drive four door on a platform shared with Alfa Romeo. At the same time, Allpar is saying that Barracuda name will not be making a return. If these rumors are true, I think this is good news. Avenger is a perfectly decent name, and Barracuda makes little sense now that Plymouth is gone.
