This is your "drawing board" to let us know what changes you'd like to see in the PT Cruiser, whether it's available options, new colors, or even redesign ideas. Replies to this message: charlesf4 (Jan 01, 2008 5:09 pm) arkainzeye (Jan 18, 2009 2:25 pm)

Well I think the PT Cruiser looks VERY cheap looking, the interior looks very encono car, its too small, and the GT version doesnt have enough power. also horrible gas mileage on the GT version, and they should dump the 4-Speed Auto and the 5-Speed Manual and come up with a new 5-Speed Auto and 6-Speed. Also an SRT version wouldn't hurt. And the LAST thing, MAKE THE SIDE VIEW MIRRORS MATCH WITHT EH SAME COLOR AS THE CAR!!!!!!!!!!!

Replying to: k2h (May 31, 2005 7:50 pm) I think the interior is far from cheap looking, the fit and finish for a car starting at around $12K is pretty darn perfect. The base engine with a stick should get pretty fair gas mileage, but we are talking about a less aero dynamic shape than the Neon, and heavier to boot, so how can it get the same gas mileage. Around 25 to 29 freeway is not too bad. Loren

Replying to: k2h (May 31, 2005 7:50 pm) So the PT looks cheap inside and outside,the interior looks econo,GT doesn´t have enough power,etc.etc.. I´m sorry man, but I don´t think ANY other car in it´s price range will offer you more in EVERY ASPECT, with all my respect, you don´t know what your talking about. The PT offers you value, QUALITY, it´s very reliable, and 2006 is the best PT inside, outside here there and everywhere.  My two cents. Replies to this message: charlesf4 (Dec 20, 2006 9:29 am)

#6 of 24 My suggestions... by krony Jan 24, 2007 (4:17 am)
I got an '06 Limited a month ago here are my suggestions: --audio and info center steering wheel mounted controls... would be tough to do and not ruin the clean look of the interior but would be better than reaching through the steering wheel to check my mileage, etc. --better mileage...the power is ok to me since I have a 5 sp manual but I would like 2-5 mpg better (getting 18-19.5 mpg city) --MP3...I have the Aux jack but would like the base single disc CD player to be MP3 capable

Replying to: k2h (May 31, 2005 7:50 pm) I recently rented a Cruiser and I must say that I was quite impressed with the car. For the price range, the Cruiser is stylish and offers tremendous value. Since its introduction, the car has been reliable. I don't see much to complain about with this car.

Replying to: krony (Jan 27, 2007 8:01 pm) 42.2 MPG that would be nice.

Replying to: krony (Jan 27, 2007 8:01 pm) Sorry guys...made a major faux pas on the info in my earlier post. I forgot that the UK Imperial gallon is larger than the US gallon. The conversion is 1.2 to 1.   Here are the corrected numbers: PT Cruiser 2.4 Limited (Manual)ECONOMY Combined Cycle 25.1 mpg Extra Urban Cycle 32.3 mpg Urban Cycle 18.1 mpg    PT Cruiser 2.2 CRD (Manual) ECONOMY Combined Cycle 35.2 mpg Extra Urban Cycle 42.0 mpg Urban Cycle 27.3 mpg   No matter...I'd still rather have the diesel!!
