  • The best car I have ever owned - 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser

    This is the best car I have ever owned! I like getting in my car everyday to drive to work. People ask me about it all the time. What is it like and how does it handle. I have never had a better vehicle before. Chrysler was inspired to build this and I just love it!

  • Great Car/Bad Gas Milage! - 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser
    By -

    Smooth ride but the worst Gas milage. I owned an 84 Chevey Citation for 7 years before I bought my 2004 Pt. Cruiser. The Citation had better Gas Milage by 40-50 miles.

  • I love my PT Cruiser, BUT.... - 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser

    A beautiful car, my favorite. Look, comfort, etc.. But after 1 month I already had to bring my baby to the dealer... 2 weeks later a second time because the problem (with a front window) wasnt fixed and also because an electronic part died in the engine... a very important piece that needed to be specialy shipped!!! And back to the store a month later for electronic problem and the window. Total visit to the "doctor", in 5 months: 4!!! And the front window still needs work, but I gave up!!

    Replacement for a 1973 Merc Capri v6. Had to replace a classic car with a comparable car. Affordability, quality, and performance were all considerations. Fun to drive, rides great, handles good, not exactly fast (180hp), and several blind spots to get used to. Havent taken it on a long trip yet, but 22-23 mpg combo city/fwy. Mileage could be better. Smaller turbo packs some punch. Wish it was a v6.

  • Enjoyable ride - 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser
    By -

    Ive always driven larger vehicles and after looking at several PTs I decided on a Platinum series. I was suprised by the pep the turbo adds and the roomy interior. Ive driven the car about three months/2000 miles now. People constantly look and ask qestions. The car handles well. The headlights are bright, unlike our Caravan. The local gas mileage is at 18. Highway, well Ive travelled across state once and the mileage wasnt much better. Probably due to the fact I couldnt contain myself. The car is a pleasure to drive. The mid-range acceleration is so smooth and quick. Yikes!!! Maybe the next road trip Ill set the cruise. Until then . . . .
