Here are some pictures of items that are clearly different from my '05 RWD that I can remember. Pictures were taken a little hastily as I didn't expect it to be so cold when I walked out without a coat
Here's the new tail-light cluster, still bulbs (which I actually like) but no more amber turn signal, now the top light blinks. Also notice the integrated side marker.
The new trunk lid with the CHMSL. The crease is quite well done and does add to the lines of the car in a subtile way IMO.
As requested, here's the rims, no difference... (Update: except for the ride hight is higher than the RWDs thus the increased spacing in the wheel well.)
Front driver-side door. As you can see, the stitched leather surfaces together with the real wood trim in the handle. They moved the memory buttons a little and moulded to be more integrated with the map pocket. Map pocket is illuminated (green) when lights are on or when cabin lights are activated.
No more separate button for the fog lights, now it's push to activate. Dial for the cluster illumination/cabin lights seems to be tighter so easier to make finer adjustments.
New keyhole for the "bladeless" key.
New cruise control stalk. Push button on the end to toggle on/off. Pull towards to cancel, push away to reduce ACC (Adaptive CC) distance, the rest you can read from the labels.
New front floor mats with Chrysler and a rubber patch where you legs rest. Front passenger mat doesn't have the rubber patch.
New center console. Notice shorter (and shallower) pocket right of shift. New storage just below climate controls and exposed illuminated cupholders and finished in wood with chrome accents.
Climate control knobs now has less detent and spins more fluidly, so a little harder to get it right where you want it or without looking, IMO.
Center console open with first layer storage.
Center console open with second layer bin. There is a wide, 2 position latch to open with either the first or second layer.
Rear door, same added trims and illuminated map pocket.
Rear passenger vents, now with vent direction controls and heated seat controls.
View of rear seats from front. No more integrated antenna in the rear window and no CHMSL so 1% more visibility
Passenger side front with wood and chrome trims. Don't know why they put the Boston Acoustics badge in the one place without speakers.
Parking brake pedal, now push on, push off.
New position of "Hemi C" badge and no more chrome strip on the front quarter panel.
Side mirror with courtesy (puddle) light illuminated. Light comes on when car is unlocked or when door is open. It does illuminate the door handle and a little of the floor in the dark when the door is closed.
Side mirror with turn signal on.
New antenna, no idea why they put it so far forward, I would say it would look much better if it was closer to the rear window, it looks out of place.
Whole car. Not a nice shot, cloudy day. The color is Dark Titanium Metallic. In a bright light, the car has a reddish hue to it. I like the color, has depth.
Here's the new key with the valet key detached. You can lock the glove compartment with the blade and keep the blade so the valet can't get into that glove. The blade also unlocks the front door in case of electrical system failure. It will trip the alarm if there isn't an electrical system failure though.
Any other item or angle that you'd like to see, let me know and I'll be happy to take one.
Got to rush off to an appointment but I'll post more about the "ownership" experience when I get back.
