Love My Cruiser
In 25,000, no problems. Love this car. The PT is fun, versatile, and plenty responsive. I have the woody sides and the car gets lots of attention. I was scared to buy American, but I wouldn't hesistate to buy another one.
IT'S FUN TO SHOW OFF!!!!
I HAVE HAD MY CRUISER A YEAR AND A HALF AND LOVIN' EVERY MINUTE... JUST GOT IT BACK FROM THE BODY SHOP WHERE WE CUSTOMIZED IT WITH SOME GROUND EFFECTS. AT THE SPEED OF 90 IT'S SMOOTH AS ANYTHING AND DOESN'T SHAKE PASSING BIG TRUCKS. IT LOOKED COOL BEFORE THE GROUND EFFECTS AND WING BUT NOW IT'S DOWNRIGHT STRIKING. IT CAN GO TO CAR SHOWS AND STILL CRUISE THE STREETS. NOW THAT'S VERSATILE!!! I ESPECIALLY LIKE THE INTERIOR ROOM. THE ONLY PROBLEM I'VE HAD WAS A NEW SUNROOF SWITCH REPLACEMENT. IT HAS BEEN VERY DEPENDABLE. I LOVE TO SEE THE LOOKS ON PEOPLES' FACES WHEN THEY STARE AND BOY DO THEY STARE!!! GOOD JOB CHRYSLER!!!!

Happy and shocked
Overall I have been very happy with my PT. I like it's reliability, style, and comfort. It is a well built vehicle. The one shock I received today was that the front rotors are non-turnable, in other words they are throw away rotors according to my dealer. I have owned other vehicles for many years and miles and I have never had a problem with worn out rotors. My PT's rotors had to be replaced after only 30,000 miles.
No regrets
I love everything about this car with one exception: poor visibility to the right when stopped at an angle at an intersection. But you just cannot beat the quality of construction, the smooth, quiet ride, the roomy seating, and the fantastic storage. This is one great little car.
Summary
Vehicle is peppy for a 4 cylinder. Overall styling is excellent. Interior is very roomy for 4 adults. Plenty of cargo room!!!! Controls are easy to manage, but power window controls are on the dashboard.
Totally trouble-free!
I have found this car to be very well built, reliable and even fun to drive. It can be a four person sedan one day and a cargo van the next! Great ability to change into many different configerations. The wide is fine, rattle free and I find it can cruise the highways with the best of them. Buy one and you will not go wrong!
California Fun in My PTeaser
I've had mine 3 months and love it. I moved up from a smaller four cylinder so my Cruiser has plenty of power when tied to the 5-speed manual. I never was the racing type anyway. Gets me where I'm going in style and when you red- line it I can't see the real need for more power unless you want to spend more time at the gas pump!! Get one, you won't regret it!!
Sweet Little Car with Big Attitude
I enjoy every minute I spend with this car. It's cute, it rides nice, has a nice radio, it's comfortable. It's stylish and whimsical looking on the outside but very practical and versatile on the inside. Still impressed with the solid build quality... does not feel like a cheap little car.
Fun but underpowered
I think they really engineered the interior space well. Plenty of roo both in the front and back. Like therear cargo area although can't get golf clubs tolie flat. The engine is a dog but I knew that going in. Abit noisy with road noise.
my pt
very fun to drive, but lacks power, and hard to park! very very comfortable on a road trip, and decentgas mileage on the highway.. lots more room inside than you think.
