While buyers <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/11/buyers-disagree-with-consumer-reports.html">don’t necessarily adhere</a> to what the motoring press has to say, CR’s tests still command enough heft in the U.S. market to make a carmaker dread its verdict. So, how did the Dart do? The good news is that CR, which tested two versions of the Dart, the US$20,680 2.0-liter SXT and the US$24,490 1.4-liter Rallye, praised their quiet cabin, nimble handling and taut yet compliant ride. The bad news is that, neither of them scored high enough to earn the coveted “recommended” tag. “The Dart is the first decent compact car from <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/search/label/Dodge">Dodge</a> in decades,” said CR’s Auto Test Center director Jake Fisher. “It has some solid positives.
