I just drove one (loaded) leather, moonroof, cd, 16" wheels, tint, the whole 9 yards. Sticker? $20,000! It was so damn cool! The interior is the most versatile interior I have ever encountered! The rear deck cover pulls out and makes a table for tailgating parties! The back seats fold down or can be pulled out completely. The front passenger seat folds flat for more cargo area! Based on a Neon the PT gets around 30mpg! They are coming out with a turbo soon. Cooler than a minivan but big enough for a family. I will buy one. You?

Oh, very well then. No, I would not consider buying a Chrysler product because of their poor reliability records. Recent Chrysler models are notorious for peeling paint, electrical problems, failing head gaskets, drivetrain and transmission failure and a host of other design flaws. They are poorly-engineered vehicles, and owning one will put you on intimate terms with their service department. I shudder to think of owning any Chrysler, let alone a turbocharged model. Although the PT Cruiser may be fun to drive (for a minivan), I couldn't bring myself to overlook their terrible reputation, and I feel that if you would purchase one, well, lets just say you better get the extended warranty, and maybe buy a second car for those days when the PT Cruiser is at the shop. |

So it is a forgone conclusion that, no matter what, a Chrysler will break down. Hmmmmm well, that's pretty trite. I think the same sort of web sites and similar comments regarding overall craftmanship can be found for just about every manufacturer. As a matter of fact, if I go to Alldata and look it up, it seems as though they have spared no one! Mercy! http://www.alldata.com/pro/TSB/yr.html |

| Ya don't recall the Daytona? Shadow? GLH? etc. I don't remember CP having a major problem with turbos. | |

No, I didn't say that. However, statistically speaking, you're probably better off with another manufacturer. |
