2006 Chrysler PT Cruiser 4dr Wagon (2.4L 4cyl 5M)

This vehicle started the retro-craze. It is beautifully ugly! I have enjoyed every second in this still head-turning panel van. Chevy has tried to copy it recently and Ford knows better. I picked the cheapest on the lot because I needed a low cost commuter. Air is my only option, but the Cruiser comes with tilt wheel, power windows, power locks, and a stock stereo and speakers that rival my old '91 Dodge Shadow ES Turbo that I equipped with an aftermarket Sony Explode sound system. The bass on the stock 6 speaker system is incredible! The base 2.4 L 4 cylinder is more than enough to power this vehicle. By 4 cylinder standards it is fairly large and would take most 6 cylinders. I love mine!
I love my Pretty Tight Cruiser

I have had this car for a little over a year. I LOVE the inside design, mine is bright blue so the whole dash is blue. The stock stereo system is actually SICK, it has crazy bass. It's comfortable, fun, and fairly reliable.

I downsized from my F-150 hoping to save on gas mileage, so far, not that great. But the upside is that as currently it stands the radio turns on and off when it feels like it. Only my right front blinker works. My battery dies if you leave the radio on(when it decides to work) for more that 5 minutes. The 12 volt plug in the center console doesnt work. The airbag light comes on just for fun. The automatic door opener in the back works when it feels like it. I'm just waiting to see what else on this car falls apart. But I like the interior design. Oh and yeah water does stain the seats. Thank God I live in San Diego where it doesnt rain that much.
I love this Car!!!

I have only had my P.T. turbo Cruiser convertible for a month and just love driving it, its not a light car but built heavy and strong and tight. This car is great on corners and has an excellent pick up when you give it a little extra gas. the top is easy to put up and down the boot is a little cumbersome 'til you get used to putting it on correctly. It has been fabulous on gas, and Im getting more mileage to the gallon then it represents on the stats. The trunk is not large but the back seats go down and there is an opening from the trunk into the back seat for larger items. This is the most fun Ive had in years. Dolores
Lots of fun!!

I have only had my PT Cruiser for a month but a week after we got it we went on vacation to the Great Smokey Mountains. It was wonderful riding through the mountains with the top down. The transmission was great going up and down the mountains. We didn't use the brakes much. I love the get up and go and the sound of the turbo. The trunk held all of our luggage, plus. You just have to bend over more to get to the trunk but that was fine. I traded a Lincoln Aviator for this car and it was the best thing I have done in a long time. No regrets!!
i like it !

On the whole i like it...they could have finessed it a little better..i think the 2006 has more to offer...The one thing I don't like is that when you step on the gas it has a tendency to fish tail a little.. i am not use to that...
PT ruined 2 holidays with malfunctions.

We fell for the shape of the PT. thus far we had two major failures (engine management system blocked the car because of 'blocked fuel line'??. replaced spark plugs and cables (myself, check the costs!)) and have had the antenna replaced 4 times. Still don't have reception, only in larger populated areas. Consumption in congested cities like where we live is absolutely sky-high. We hit the 14.1 liter/100km every so often. Doors creak terribly, it wakes our sleeping son in the backseat. Materials are bad: seat material stains with water (unbelievable but true!),dashboard creaks,a rattle inside te steering column. Good things? The looks, but the novelty wears quickly. The headroom in the back
Good car for the money

I am not sure how people are getting less than 20 mpg. I have the standard engine, automatic transmission, and am getting 22 city and 25 highway MPG. You cannot drive this car like it's a Corvette. Revving the engine up to 4.5K rpm routinely isn't your friend. I bought the car used with approximately 50k miles, and am really enjoying it. No issues to date so far, and it's a joy to drive. Styling is retro, which is a huge change from my prior car (Lincoln Continental). The engine is a bit sluggish, but it is not a blemish on the enjoyment factor. I have experienced a bit of engine vibration at higher RPM's, but it's not too noticeable. Fit/finish is fine...no issues.
