"Face-lift" for 15 year old PT Cruiser

The old girl looks like a new car again! Removed 15 years of dings, scratches and sun damage. Headlight lenses were polished to look like showroom floor perfect. Pinstripes redone to look like original. Good work by Manny ?

I LOVE my 2015 PT!

I have over 100K miles on it with nothing too bad wrong so far. I feel like the money it costs is well spent because I love the way it looks and drives. Also love all the room inside when the rear seats are snapped out. It even fit a long chaise lounge chair that I got for free. I consigned it and got over $100 for it! Lots of moving boxes were no problem either. It’s like a little mini van that’s very fun to drive!

A great little car for city driving

This has been one of the best cars I’ve ever owned. Other than a/c issues, it has been trouble-free. After over 15 years and 220,000 miles it is still going strong. I am surprised that a Chrysler four-cylinder would hold up so well.

Lots to Like

Easy ride, easy drive, practical for hauling lots of stuff. And I like the chrome accents on this limited version. Has a lot of miles and still going strong. Plan to keep it for a long time. Fun and peppy.

My P.T. cruiser

I love my car. I've owned it for 14 years. Great car. When I brought my car it was used as a rental car. Great condition and mileage well kept. I had been looking for a P.T. Cruiser when I found this car.

My pT Cruiser

This car has suited me perfectly and I could not have found a better type. The size is just right not too big but not too small, good gas mileage the hatchback area and fold down back seats gives plenty of cargo room. Drives and handles great I hope it lasts my lifetime!

Well kept convertible

Cute little car that many women love and comment on when I'm out in it. Leather seat are comfortable. The ride is nice. Zips around like a sports car and looks like one too with the top down. Very easy to drive.

I like the shape of this car.

I really appreciate my car. Very reliable. I bought it at 90K. First year put 600 into it. Next 2 years just oil changes. This past year I put a battery, breaks, new hose, tires, cost about $1000. It's working well. I like how I can fit a lot into the back. So it's not fancy, nor does it have much in the way of modern day extras. Although it's got a good radio/CD player, decent sound and it starts up every time. So I'm grateful for it.

Very nice vehicle fun to drive handles nice

I would definitely buy another one of these vehicles to me they’re worth it and the one I got is a convertible so I think it’s really cool because it only has 40,000 miles on it and it’s 17 years old and owned By 1 person

Very happy owner

Purchased our PT Cruiser new in 2005. 18 yrs and 139000 miles later, still think it’s the best dependable car that we have ever owned. Besides regularly scheduled maintenance the repairs have been few.

A Truck Minus the Height

I like my truck, it is the right size for me. It carry things like the big SUV's without the having to lift as high. It does not have that big step up to get in.

Love my Cruiser, although upkeep is becoming expensive

This is the most user-friendly, sensibly-designed and fun car. I am bummed that Chrysler no longer makes them.

Favorite Car

This has been the most favorite car I have ever had, From the moment I first saw one on the street, I wanted one. Since I've had it (2005) I have completely enjoyed driving it, and hope to continue as long as possible. It's not perfect, and through the years I have had different problems, but they have always been fixable. What car doesn't have problems??

It's a fun little car

We bought our PT as a tow vehicle, but we find it's much more. We use it as an everyday vehicle too. It gets good gas milage, has enough power for a get-around-town vehicle, is fun to drive, and easy to service. If I had anything negative at all to say about it, it would be that the motor mounts are worn and expensive to replace and that running a break-away line through the firewall is a job best reserved for professionals rather than do-it-yourselfers like me.

Pt Cruiser

I love my cruiser, even though I've had a sensor go out on it several times making it difficult to drive when it does, but I appreciate the fact it will still drive.

2005 PT Cruiser

She'll take us anywhere and better yet, she'll be sure to bring us back too. She's dependable, economical, fun to drive, and because she's a standard transmission model, she's flat towable behind our motorhome. She's light weight too, so she's inexpensive to tow. If there's a negative, it's that she is slightly underpowered. Don't get me wrong, she'll do 70 or 75 mph on the freeway easily.

I love this car!

What a great little car. Dependable, safe, decent fuel milage, capable of being flat towed, and still a great around-town vehicle. Not bad power for the size of engine.
