I love this car. We have had ours for about 3 years and use it for family and business. Tons of room.

The car is fun to drive and we bought it to pull behind motorhome. The car still gets alot of looks from people and the fun factor for the price is an added bonus.

I absolutely love my Pt cruiser. It is comfortable and stylish. I like the way it hugs the road. I have an anxiety of driving, but not in this car. I feel so safe. I have no regret about purchasing this car. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

The over-all quality of the car is very good. Only problem found is the 4 speed automatic transmission. This transmission has problems in getting stuck in second gear after a complete stop. No codes register so the dealer can't address the problem as per Chrysler. Chrysler .... what ever happened to "customer service" ...

My vehicle has had 5 serious defects. Quality control should be tighter.

I've added a few things and enjoyed everything the factory saw fit to include. The handling is great and the roominess is good even for my 300 lb self! I can get in and out very easy and it is quite comfortable to take on long trips.... this is my second and I can't wait for my third! The convertible WILL be mine as soon as its available!

25000 miles and still the best

I'm on my third year with this car, and it's the best I've ever owned. It's not only fun to drive, it's a great hauler for my dogs, their crates, etc. It's amazing to have a smaller car - which I like - with big- car room. (I know it's classified as a truck, but it sure doesn't ride truck- like!) Now, I'd keep this car forever if they hadn't come out with that incredible- looking convertible. Will I get one? We'll see.

Mellifluous!

Mellifluous means "smooth and sweet, like honey." That's this car. I got it a couple days ago and it has been an absolute joyance. The amount of features is incredible, the most important being the nice ride. Bumps that used to torture my old cars are all but forgotten in this one (I mean, you feel them, but you don't FEEL them). Yes, it has its negatives--a light weight that makes me question its winter fortitude, and 20-25 mpg is a lot less than what I'm used to--but I kept my old car for those things. Overall, though, it's a great car. Granted, I haven't had it very long--but if anything goes awry, I'll be sure to write back!
