This Year's Model Updates:

The Chrysler PT Cruiser's sporty GT trim level has been dropped for 2008. Chrysler has also reduced the convertible model's trim level availability and made minor adjustments to feature availability. However, there will be a new special-edition model coming out later in the model year, the PT Street Cruiser Sunset Boulevard Edition.

Pros:
  • Roomy cabin with great utility, smooth ride, low price.
Cons:
  • Aged design, tepid acceleration with the base engine, less than stellar fuel economy, awkward seating position for shorter drivers.

  • Love it, love it, love it! - 2008 Chrysler PT Cruiser
    By -

    My husband and I both have a 2008 PT Cruiser. Mine is Cool Vanilla and his is Blue. Being retired we wanted something that was dependable and comfortable to drive. It is easy to get in and out of and I sit higher than my Chrysler LeBaron that I owned before. I just heard they are being discontinued this month and was hoping to purchase another PT Cruiser in 2012 but now that wont be happening. Sorry to hear this!

  • Excellent Value - 2008 Chrysler PT Cruiser
    By -

    I understand that value has different meanings to different people, but the space utility, design, quality of vehicle, and comfort is unparalleled for the money. I bought mine slightly used (it has 1800 miles on it in the same model year) and I use it as my daily driver as well as for many of my familys long trips and it handles the interstate and in-town driving well. The seats fit me well, though, they are smaller than some, and there is plenty of leg and head room for my 62" frame. If I had to replace it tomorrow, I would try to replace it with another PT.

  • Fun and Classy! - 2008 Chrysler PT Cruiser

  • sunset edition - 2008 Chrysler PT Cruiser
    By -

    I love this car! Ive always wanted one and always let my now teenage daughter talk me out of; she left for college & I got my car (Sunset Edition) the color is great and the chrome really sets it off. I do wish the interior plastic molding was better matched and I REALLY miss my cruise control but this car is great. Ive got a 2 yr old and with this car she can see out from her car seat, with my cobalt my 7 yr old nephew couldnt see out. To me the seats are more like the truck I used to drive than a car & I love the way the seats fold and remove; comes in handy with our frequent auctions and yard sales! In ending this one was worth waiting for. I love the dash board clock & emblems.
