Solid Ride

I was concern about the high price of this vehicle, the low crash ratings for the driver (2 stars)in the 2001 models, and the poor gas milage (20-22 mpg city). Still, I have been impressed at how well this car is designed, both in terms of space, comfort, and design-- just very artistic. In time I have come to like this car a lot--crash ratings for 2002 model are now good & milage continues to improve.

So far so good the build quality has been a very pleasant expierence. In the year and a half i've had this pt, it has not had, one problem at all that it needed to go back to the dealer for any warrenty work. And is it usful little hauler the amount of stuff it can hold is surprising. Even with auto. trans. performance is okay 90% of the time. i'm very happy with my PT

We have not had this car very long but so far we love it.Very versital,comfortable,And best of all fun.Some have a problem with the power,but we find it more than sufficiant for a family/commuter car. Its not meant to be a sports car.The interior is as nice as the exterior and it is very comfortable. Would highly recommend this car.

The car drives and handles very well. All controls are where they should be (except power window switches). Very quiet interior and solid feel to the car. Good build quality. Gas mileage could be better!. Overall a very pleasing car to own.

A fun car to drive! The 5-speed has plenty of pick-up for my driving, both around town and on trips. It handles really nicely, and is very comfortable for both driver and passengers. There is plenty of room for whatever I need to carry, and my friends love to ride in it!

Have put over 4000 miles since purchase. While the gas mileage could be better, I am very happy with overall vehicle. A bit sluggish with AC on, once up to 65 mph, it will keep up with the pack. Fun to drive, good looking and quiet riding. Receive at least a compliment per day on style, looks, etc. A good car for individual transportation. Leather seats are great!

I love this car. Accelleration could be much better, gas mileage is lower than expected for a 4 cyl engine. Otherwise, there isn't a thing I don't enjoy. I have put about 30,000 miles on my PT and haven't had a single issue. Please buy this car, it's comfortable, stylish and very very cool.
