The Sebring sedan and convertible share many components and roll out of a Chrysler assembly plant in Sterling Heights, Michigan. The convertible uses elements of the Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder platform. The coupe shares little in common with the sedan and convertible. It is built in a joint-venture assembly plant in Illinois alongside the Mitsubishi Eclipse and Dodge Stratus coupes, and shares the Mitsubishi's engines, chassis, and suspension designs.

Sedans and convertibles feature restyled front fascia, a new grille, and scalloped headlamps for 2004. Chrysler revised the front and rear styling of the coupe for 2003. New wheel designs are available for 2004.

Blackened center roof pillars on the four-door sedan give it the look of a two-door coupe. The roofline flows in a smooth transition from roof to body. The decklid incorporates a spoiler lip arched over large taillamps and thick monotone bumper. We found the outside door handles can be hard to hang onto, particularly when in a hurry. Also, the coupe's mirrors are small.
