2003 PT GT - 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser
By KBzPTGT - January 29 - 2:00 amthe day after we picked up our Electric Blue PT GT w/Autostick, we drove from MD to FL for vacation. I wasnt used to getting only 22-25 MPG. BUT, If thats the price I have to pay to drive this really fun to drive car then its worth it to me. The GT is no race car but has PLENTY of get~up~n~go with 4 adults in it. The auto stick makes it a little more driver friendly. My 2 biggest gripes are: the turning radius is as large as a 18 wheelers and its kinda hard to back up because of the large headrests. Its really to early to tell about reliability. As as of now I would rate this car well above average

Buda Love - 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser
By Lady Ech0 - January 24 - 2:00 amI named my 2003 Steel Blue Cruiser "Buda", because its rounded features just make you smile - like Buda. With a 5-speed manual transmission, the car handles even better than anticipated, corners well at high speeds, and has lots of power. One thing to know, you must have your hands on the wheel while driving, especially on rough roads because the steering is sensitive to the road, probably due to proximity of linkage to wheels and axle. But this is true of many cars. The PT Cruiser is one of the best cars on the road. I love it and I cant wipe the grin off my face while driving my "Buda."

No TurboLag as Stated in RoadTest Review - 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser
By Ernst - January 18 - 10:00 amI just love my PT Cruiser.This is my second PT Cruiser. The first is a 2002 Patriot Blue Limited Edition.It looks great ,handles like a sports car, but the car was just too slow. Now comes along my 2003 Electric Blue 5 speed Turbo. Handling is even better then before. I now have the power to back up the PT Cruisers fast looking exterior. Anybody want to buy a 2002 Patriot Blue Limited Edition PT Cruiser?

My PT - 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser
By Su-z Q - January 13 - 10:00 amThe really only poor feature on this vehicle is the poor gas milage. It says 21mpg for city, thats what we get highway on trips. For city it usually runs anywhere fron 14mpg to 17mpg. I feel for a 4 cyl, thats VERY POOR. It is not a turbo, either.

very dependable bad gas mileage - 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser
By jopaul - December 1 - 8:10 pmits a good car, very practical and dependable. GT not worth the xtra money. Wish it got better gas mileage and handled a little better. Not a very comfortable car on a trip.

form and function - 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser
By trigger46 - December 1 - 10:00 amThis car was the perfect choice for me. The design flows as flawlessly as a well turned ceramic pot. And, like a beautiful bowl, it is functional as well. There is room in this tidy little car to carry all my treasures. The 5- speed was my choice as the automatic lacked enthusiasm. With the rebate and dealer discount, I paid $12,900.(no delivery charge or extra fees). I love this little guy....!

Outstanding - 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser
By User540243 - December 1 - 10:00 amThis vehicle is awsome. I have been able to carry a bigger payload in the PT Cruiser than I was able to carry in our 2000 Voyager. It is a dream for grocery getting and my friends love the interior comfort. I have a 610 friemd who has moe leg room in our passengers seat than his full size sedan. The PT Cruiser has put fun into driving for us.
