This Year's Model Updates:

A soft-touch electric liftgate switch is now standard on base models of the Chrysler PT Cruiser wagon, along with remote keyless entry. A console floodlamp is included on all PT Cruiser wagons and convertibles.

Pros:
  • Distinct styling inside and out, roomy cabin with great utility, smooth ride, brisk acceleration on turbo models, value-oriented pricing.
Cons:
  • Tepid acceleration with the base engine, less-than-stellar fuel economy, awkward seating position for shorter drivers.

  • OK vehicle.... - 2007 Chrysler PT Cruiser
    By -

    Does all the base-line things youd expect from a vehicle like this. Over and above that, it does seat 4 people comfortably, it has ample trunk space and it looks nice. It is not an economical vehicle. Bet on around 21mpg/overall (terrible for a 4- banger). With the auto, the engine is sluggish. It has been fairly reliable. Most issues were covered under the manufacturers warranty and they were mostly minor (except for the CD- player, which just stopped accepting CDs and the battery going dead at 33K miles). The CD-player was replaced (w/a refurbed one). The battery was replaced (the tech told me, Chrysler refurbs all their batteries and then resells them as new in new cars?????)

  • Fantastic Ride - 2007 Chrysler PT Cruiser
    By -

    I purchased a 2007 PT Cruiser vehicle because consumer repots show it to be economy friendly. The driving performance is amazing. It really holds the road well. I live in the country so most of the roads are 55mph and higher. The vehicle takes a curve with total smoothness and comfort. I have found nothing that I do not like about the vehicle. I purchased it for price, consumer rateings and gas usage. It is extrmely good on gas. My father has a 2007 expedition and the PT Cruiser feels just as smooth of a ride as his 35,000$ vehicle.

  • Love my PT - 2007 Chrysler PT Cruiser
    By -

    I love my PT! My kids enjoy riding it and think it looks cool. I wish it got better gas mileage and I hate the interior fabric. It stains just from water so it makes it bad with 3 kids. Lots of room in the hatch back. Would recommend buying this car.

    What a super deal. Convertible and the wind blowing back your hair. I love the single button top off/down as well as all windows down, too! Gas mileage a bit low but this car is solid. People always comment the cruiser convertible is "sweet",esp. the cream w/black top. One tiny suggestion: hazard button too close to radio controls (you get the idea).

  • My experience with the 07 PT Cruiser - 2007 Chrysler PT Cruiser
    By -

    I bought my 07Cruiser touring edition in 07 and like many features of this car including: the old style look of a 1940s car, the dash board features (outside temp., compass, avg. mi. per gal., mi. till empty..etc.), good cd player, good ac and heat, unique "handle bar" on passenger side, well thought out middle console with 3 cup holders and middle storage with sliding arm rest, smooth ride, good brakes and easy gas pedal, back seats fold down and can come out for plenty of cargo room, stylish interior of textured material. Feels more upscale than you actually pay for it. I recommend this car to those who appreciate old style of cars & who want something that looks nice w/o paying alot.

  • Claustrophobic people shouldnt buy this - 2007 Chrysler PT Cruiser
    By -

    I got my 2007 PT Crusier from a private car broker after I had got into a car accident in my 2000 Toyota Camry in Feb. Now Im a tall girl and my head hits the ceiling if I dont have the seats laid back. I am the claustrophobic type & since the ceiling also slants more down in the front that causes a problem for me too. The drive is a little more rough when I compare it to my old Camry. The PT does not have little cubbies like my Camry did and you sit very high up in the car to the point that you think youre driving a truck. The back seats have great head room though but the leg room is quite small. Its December now and Im trading in my PT. Hopefully tomorrow cause Im sick of driving it.

  • 1 of Americas good values - 2007 Chrysler PT Cruiser
    By -

    Great car for around town and short drives. Easy exiting the car from all doors, better than sedans. Ride is smooth and uneventful and handles well. If you want reliability, fun and good economics, this is your car.

  • nice little car - 2007 Chrysler PT Cruiser
    By -

    Ive owned my 2007 pacific coast highway edition pt cruiser for almost a year. it has a manual transmission and a 2.4 liter engine, non turbo. it gets up and scoots well. it seems to be geared pretty low for what i had expected. it wouldve been nice if it were offered with a 6 speed though. i do a lot of highway driving and average only 26 mpg.

  • Still goin! - 2007 Chrysler PT Cruiser
    By -

    Presently I have 83,000 miles on my PT Cruiser. Ive only had to replace brakes once, tires once and of course numerous oil changes!!! I do a lot of highway driving and get decent mileage, about 25/mpg. Its a joy to drive!

  • Very Surprised on the Cruiser - 2007 Chrysler PT Cruiser
    By -

    Needed to get a FWD car for towing behind my RV and thought to offset GAS with a smaller car. Being a Big Guy was shocked at the room or lack of it in some of these small cars, had to be designed by the same guy who come up with Airplane seats! Got in the PT Cruiser. Liked it at once. Great comfort, smooth ride, okay maybe not the best gas mileage, but all things considered, now wished I got one with more Bells & Whistles. I think the next one will be.
