In 2003, Chrysler introduced a facelifted version for the Sebring Coupe, trying to get more customers for this model, but it had to give up just two years later.

Based on the third generation of the Mitsubishi Eclipse, the Sebring Coupe was not exactly the kind of cars customers expected from Chrysler, and that was easy to see in the vehicle's sales. It was proof that an American design on a Japanese platform can't do wonders.

When Chrysler refreshed the Sebring Coupe, it brought a new front fascia. The new headlights sported a double-bubble on their lower side that emerged into the bumper. Moreover, the grille that filled the apron didn't look like a mouth anymore and sported four horizontal slats and, on the upper side, a chromed trim that supported the carmaker's badge. To underline these changes furthermore, Chrysler added a new set of fog lamps. From its sides, the Sebring coupe sported new side sill moldings, while at the back, the decklid was slightly modified to receive a new Chrysler badge in the middle. Also, the taillights featured a clear area for the reversing lamps.

Inside, the carmaker added a new, six-CD, in-dash stereo, replacing the previous one that could handle just four discs. Built quality, on the other hand, was not significantly improved, and there were still a lot of unusual noises coming from the redesigned dashboard that featured a new instrument cluster, with silver surroundings for the four-dial panel.

Chrysler offered the Sebring coupe with just two engines, one less than its predecessor. The base model was put in motion by a 2.4-liter inline-four, while the top-spec version came with a 3.0-liter V6. Both engines were produced by Mitsubishi. The only available transmission was a four-speed automatic.
