Jeep Compass Rallye Package from Mopar adds insult to injury

Mopar has just revealed its "Rallye" package for the ugly Jeep Compass compact SUV. It's not a tuning package one might hope but only an appearance body kit, which, one might say, doesn't change Compass' appearance at all. To the better, I mean.

The 2007 Jeep Compass is a really ugly bastard. I mean it is so ugly, even Pontiac Aztek looks more like a beauty queen when compared. Apparently trying to do something about this, Jeep asked its affiliate Mopar tuning studio to make a body kit that would give the anemic-looking compact SUV a tougher look.

The job was done with the help of a new set of 18-inch wheels, roof-mounted rear spoiler, auxiliary driving lights with the Jeep logo, bright exhaust tips, and the "Rallye" chrome badge. Yuck.

The Jeep Compass Mopar Rallye Package will cost $1,985 when ordered with the Sport trim and $1,850 for the Jeep Compass Limited.
