  Always Out Crusin - 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Prior Ford Man - April 12 - 6:20 am

  After driving nothing but Fords all my life, I wanted some style, fun and power in my next car. The PT GT Cruiser gives me all I wanted. I love looking at Tara (my GTs name) and taking her on long drives here in CA. When I need power she gives it and when I need to haul supplies she accommodates with space to spare. Chrysler did a good job making a unique styled vehicle with power to match her great looks. There nothing on the road that looks like her except maybe an old Woody.

  Squeaky Brake Problem Solved - 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Frisco Pete - February 4 - 3:36 pm

  Wife and I owned car for 7 years. A good driver on city street and very stable on highway with solid handling and ride. Engine has very good passing power on country roads even with four passengers. Front and rear seats are very comfortable for long drives [+200 mile]. Many passengers have commented on roominess and comfort when riding in car. I have performed all maintenance since purchased and found it easy to perform oil/filter; spark plug, battery and brake maintenance [see suggestion below]. We found PT Cruiser safe, reliable and a fun car to drive with a design that still turns a head or two after all these years. I think it will become one of the design classics down the road.

  PT GT Rocks!!!!! - 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By PTGTJOE - December 30 - 2:00 am

  I bought the Electric Blue 5 spd with the cloth interior and sunroof; chrome wheels...this vehicle is the best out there for the performance, style and the money...nothing else comes close! Im also 61, and find it difficult to find head room in regular cars...this has room to spare!

  I love my PT! - 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Bushi - December 30 - 2:00 am

  I grew up with hot rods and 40s & 50s autos so the PT immediately took me back to a fun and loving time of building hot rods and custom jobs. It has a the look of a real street rod and the privilage of modern technology. Its not a speed demon but it kicks just fine for a 2.4L 4 cyl. Of course now I wish I had waited for the trubo convertable!

  By sunny hall - December 13 - 10:00 am

  If you can recall your very first car ,there was a special bonding between you and your car. over the years that seems to get lost along the way,it was with my wife and me until we got our crusier,the love of a car was reborn.

  sweet ride from Phat city - 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By spmcd - December 13 - 10:00 am

  I got the DreamCruiser2 because I didnt really want to mess around picking and choosing which extras I wanted on my turbo model. This has em all with two tone leather seats to boot. So much fun, its even better than I expected. The backseat is huge. I love the upright seating position and the Sirius sattelite radio. This car is great for long family trips. Fun for driver, room for two kids and their stuff. I absolutely recommend this car. I love mine more than I love pizza, and thats saying something.

  Great Looking Car - 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By KenSwenson - August 13 - 10:00 am

  The car is quite riding with solid construction. Nicely finished inside and out. Currently I have 7200 miles with no problems. The city fuel economy is a little less then I had hoped. Currently 20mpg in the city and 27mpg on the highway.

  2003 Standard Cruiser - 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Curt Brennan - July 13 - 2:20 am

  We bought ours from the original owners in 2005 with only 17,000 miles. Weve now owned it 10 years (this May) and it has given us absolutely NO PROBLEMS OF ANY KIND, EVER!! So far, Ive purchased one set of tires and one battery (last fall) and thats it!! We like it so much that I just bought a 2005 "GT Convertible" with HO Turbo and only 47,000 miles. We dressed up our current PT and are going "all out" on this one too. This convert is for Summer time driving and weekend cruising. Ive owned Mopars since 1971 (1966 Charger) and Ive had good luck with them all! ;-)
