We love the headroom in the car, both front and back and there is plenty of back leg room when the seats are all the way back in the front. Only thing that we don't like is the turning capacity. We get 24 to 25 MPG in the city and up to 30 on the highway.

I've had my PT for 2 years now and love it.Its fun to drive and withh all the PT clubs out there theres always fun to be found some shows and clubs really go all out like here in Ohio at Youngs Jersey Dairy in Yellow Springs Ohio family fun and show all in one. The PT could do a little better on gas but I have pulled 32.5 once or twice. All the stars must have lined up just right, Cargo area is great with more than enough room.

After less than a year, power steering died while I was on the highway. After two years, overheating problems started. Took in for service 4 times in 2 years for overheating. First time the dealer blamed it on a bad power steering motor steering motor and topped off the antifreeze. 2nd time no cause found. 3rd time found a bad fan relay. 4th time (58k mi) water pump failed, causing head gasket to blow, warping the head, damaging a piston & a ring. 2 weeks to fix. Chrysler not fully honoring 7/100 powertrain warranty, making me pay ~$500. Front discs & pads at ~40k. Plug wires after 55k. Several other intermittent problems dealer refused to fix under bumper-to-bumper warranty.

Since i have had the pt it has been awesome, fun to drive, quick, the only problem is it only has 40,000 on it and needed front end work, the place were i bought it would not fix it. Other than that i love my candy apple pt. Oh it also needs the retro sound, needs to be a little more louder. Rmc
Gas Mileage not that bad

It gets about 21 mpg average combined driving. While certainly not in the same league mileage wise as a Civic, try fitting a 36 inch TV in a Civic.You can't have everything.The PT costs less than an a Accord, fits the same amount of people and cargo as a minivan and has a much better engine than anything in its price class. If you get 15mpg, you probably have never changed the air filter.
built cheap...

bought pt cruiser for looks, and for the 4 cyclinder engine mpg....it gets very lousy gas mileage for a 4, only 15 mpg....brakes are way to small for car, had to have rotors replaced at 40k miles at a cost of 400. if you're looking for an economical vehicle, a pt cruiser isn't the one your after...keep shopping!

I bought my PT NEW and I love it and I have great gas mileage. I would not sell this car I love this car. I love driving it and it is fun. I have a good pick up speed with it and I would buy another one if I have too.

Very fun and reliable car with excellent features and comfort. This car is fully-loaded and has been very reliable with cost of ownership being quite low. Performance is noticeably impacted by running the air conditioning.
