Overview & Reviews

A convertible joins the PT Cruiser lineup for 2005.

• Distinctive styling inside and out, spacious cabin with multiconfigurable rear seats, smooth ride, spirited acceleration on turbo models, reasonable pricing.

• Acceleration can be sluggish with base engine, awkward seating position for shorter drivers, unimpressive fuel economy.

  The best little car we have ever had. Drove it to Wyo and brought mother-in-law back in it.

  My second PT - 2005 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Charles - December 17 - 10:20 pm

  This is my second PT Cruiser. The first one had 3 years and this is almost 2 years old. I have never had to take either one in for service. I feel they have done an excellent job with the convertible. It is extremely easy to operate and fun to drive. The turbo has excellent power. I would recommend this automobile to anyone.

  A pleasant surprise - 2005 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Judybl - December 1 - 3:03 pm

  Needed a fun car to tow behind our Freightliner(Chrysler) motorhome. Always looked down on the PT Cruiser, but tried the convertible and have been in love with it ever since. Standard transmission makes the power of the small engine very adequate- As a pleasant surprise- there is virtually no road noise with the top up, and very acceptable noise with it down. Lowest price model had all the accessories we think are mandatory (remote entry, power windows, and even compass and temperature) Chrysler build quality on this car built in Mexico is impeccable- even better than the Lexus RX300 we traded for it. Would we buy it again- yes.

  Satisfied GT Convertible purchasers - 2005 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By bryan & shannon - November 27 - 10:40 pm

  Purchased black PT convertible GT. Power, style, handling, all as advertised. *Very* impressive 220 hp turbo engine; after driving the non-turbo and 180 hp turbo touring edition, the 220hp is substantively different and we would suggest only the 180 or 220 if any power is required at all or if the car will be driven at high altitudes. Of course style is an individual preference, but folks definitely checked out the car on our trip between LA and San Diego.:) Handling during rainstorm was impressive; lots of standing water but traction control kept the car stable [unfortunately other cars werent so lucky -- several spin outs and accidents on the interstates]. Top goes up and comes down easy.

  Excellent car - 2005 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Pat - November 18 - 11:06 pm

  Great car. I dont know where to begin. I love everything about the car. Its great for familys, people who travel, New Drivers, pretty much anybody. Performance of a car, but SUV and Mini van features. The back seat folds down and comes out. Comfortable for five people. Great for people who need a low cost or expensive car.

  Fun and Reliable - 2005 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Digger - November 11 - 3:10 am

  Fell in love at 1st sight! Ive owned 5 convertibles and the PT is my favorite. Easy to enter/exit, raise/lower top. Solid structure without leaks even after 37000 miles. Reasonably quick and nimble. Fun to drive, to look upon and fun in which to be seen. Trunk access poorly designed. Pricey but worth it just looking at it.

  A head turner - 2005 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Howard V - November 10 - 10:00 am

  Our 2005 PT convertible is a real head turner. I have never had a car that generated so much interest. This car is also very roomy, great leg room front and rear, great headroom in the front. All the controls are easy to use and gauges are excellent. The turbo-charged engine is responsive with no turbo lag and plenty of torque and power. Car is also very quiet. With the top down, it is quiet as a sedan.

  By Stinky53 - November 1 - 8:33 am

  Great smooth ride. Plenty of interior room. Mileage could be better. Great classic look. Gets lots of attention. Dealership was great. No high pressure tacticts. My sister just bought herself a PT Cruiser based upon my recommendation.

  Turbo Cruiser - 2005 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By craig berteele - October 14 - 8:36 pm

  Pop and pep--the PT really can move with 220 HP and a five speed. The styling is still crisp and the look is pure vintage. The car is as versatile as they come. The seat configuations make it very useful in many different situations. The PT has some serious get up and go and can really get you moving in a hurry.
