• Head-turning styling, passenger/cargo flexibility, generous standard features list for price.

• No high-performance engine option (yet), tight cargo space when rear seat is in use.

  DRIVE=LOVE (ITS TRUE!) - 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By patchman - September 20 - 2:00 am

  I almost forgot. DRIVING IS FUN! Had it a month now, and everything is super. I find it to have plenty of pep with 5 spd, I am usually ahead of the pack leaving lights or down hwy on ramps. Build quality is solid as a vault. MPG has been better than EPA (24 around town to 28 hwy). Comfortable driving position that melts miles away. Nimble and very manuverable. Quiet ride. Most versatile interior in class. It sure fits in the garage great. So far it has been problem free. And my kids think its the COOLEST car dads ever had!

  A Good Vehicle - 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Joe - September 19 - 5:00 pm

  We purchased out PT Cruiser new in 2002 to replace an old ford that was about worn out. My wife picked out the car and I didnt care for it much until I had to transport some building material to the house. Although a small looking car I was surprised at the open space it has when the seats were folded down and the amount of weight it would carry. Was almost like an inclosed pick up and still drove very well.

  Fun to Drive - 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Mike R. - September 14 - 10:00 am

  The car drives and handles very well. All controls are where they should be (except power window switches). Very quiet interior and solid feel to the car. Good build quality. Gas mileage could be better!. Overall a very pleasing car to own.

  Thats a Winner - 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By St. Louis Cruiser - August 3 - 10:00 am

  Chrysler has hit a homerun with this vehicle. Its a pleasure to drive and receives compliments galore. This baby is as solid and well built as they come. Even washing it is a joy. Thank you Chrysler for being creative and progressive. Your gamble paid off.

  built cheap... - 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By hall - June 27 - 4:30 am

  bought pt cruiser for looks, and for the 4 cyclinder engine mpg....it gets very lousy gas mileage for a 4, only 15 mpg....brakes are way to small for car, had to have rotors replaced at 40k miles at a cost of 400. if youre looking for an economical vehicle, a pt cruiser isnt the one your after...keep shopping!

  Gas Mileage not that bad - 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Raymond - June 4 - 10:40 pm

  It gets about 21 mpg average combined driving. While certainly not in the same league mileage wise as a Civic, try fitting a 36 inch TV in a Civic.You cant have everything.The PT costs less than an a Accord, fits the same amount of people and cargo as a minivan and has a much better engine than anything in its price class. If you get 15mpg, you probably have never changed the air filter.

  A Luxury Car Its Not - 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By PW - May 24 - 10:00 am

  The car is excellent for what its supposed to be. However, if you are use to luxury, you wont get it here. Youll get lots of space versatility and reliability. You wont get power, fuel economy, or luxury. The noise level is high, and the stereo hard to hear with any real quality. We have tried for 2 years to love it, but failed.

  A Great Alternative to Any TRUCK - 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By gmh - May 6 - 10:00 am

  Had only minor initial problems. Fixed at no cost and quickly during first year. Clutch fluid leak, was still able to carefully drive to shop. Engine control module fault which actually caused no problem driving just kept idiot light on until module was replaced. Otherwise very good handling and power with typical mileage around town at or better than 25 mpg and highway miles 29-32 depending on speed. Normally as i use this vehicle for work loaded down. I changed my original tires at 63000 miles no bare spots just needed a little better tread depth in snow otherwise could have easily gotten another 5000 on tread left if winter was gone.
