    This is a Great car! I Love the design on both the inside and outside. The seat is the right height for someone in a wheelchair to slide into, without feelng like they are either; falling in or climbing up into it. And the seat belt is easy to buckle for people who can only use one hand.

    Ordered new,Have had this car for 5 months now. It has made several 800 mile plus trips and NO problems. I had a 2001 PT (also ordered new) and the difference in power is unbelievable! No rattles with either PT. No turbo lag with this car, just push the gas pedal and go. Mileage is good, Power is good, insurance is cheap, corners nicely, whats not to like??

    This car is the most fun, I bought one for me and one for my daughter ( whose 19 yrs old). Great in town and on the road, through the mountains and flat ground too. Big trucks dont intimidate me and my PT is small enough I can get through LA traffic without batting an eye. Ive never had a car that gives me more joy. I would recommend it to any and all. I also like the fact that I have almost as much hauling room as I did with my Lumina Van.

    Other than routine oil and filter changes, all Ive done is turn the key and drive. It has never missed a beat and has been driven for extended periods in all terrains. Pleanty of room for kids to golf clubs. Fuel economy is acceptable but could be a bit higher to be perfect. Opt for the cloth seats. They clean easily and appear extremely durable. Great for any member of the family and does not hog garage space.

  • Its Awesome! - 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser

    I have had my PT for all most 2 months. I love it. The car handles well and has unbelievable accelleration for a 4 cyl. Electric Blue Pearl is a beautiful color that goes great with the 17" chrome rims. Everyone that rides with me loves it too. Autostick is good for quick acceleration in short areas (i.e. short passing zones.

  • So cool its hot! - 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser
    By -

    Just back from a 2000-mile trip through the Canadian Rockies in a new GT Turbo loaded with 2 adults, 2 large dogs (back seats removed), 2 sets of golf clubs and baggage for a 7-day vacation. The car rocketed from A to B -- no problem keeping things in the 90-110 MPH range, our Patriot Blue GT wasnt fazed by altitude or exterior heat . The only vehicle to stay ahead of us was a new Porsche 911 -- as Voltaire said, "its never so fast that it couldnt be faster!"

    I have wanted a PT Cruiser since they appeared in the Chrysler catologue but my husband said they didnt have enough power. When they came out with the Turbo...there was no stopping me. I love to drive it. Everyone who drives it says what power it has. My husband has been coverted. I am amazed at what we are able to fit in this car!
