5 best things on my 2009
1 - Incredibly comfy on a long trip. I've driven cross country in less then 2 days, 17 hours at a stretch. Seats very comfortable, driving position great. I had a 2005 crown vic that would leave me buzzing after a 6 hour trip but not this PT.
2 - Terrific looking paint - I do keep it in a garage. Paint looks like new except for the rear bumper.
3 - very few problems in 72K miles. Couple of door lock motors, blower fan and radiator fan, and a leaking oil pressure switch, motor mounts.
4 - Very versatile - can get an amazing amount of stuff in the "trunk" area plus carry 4 people in comfort
5 - A/C works amazing here in Arizona - one of the best ac's of any car I've had.
5 worst things
1 - lousy gas mileage - pretty much get 22 mpg day in and day out. On a trip might go to 24. If I flog it on short trips might drop to 19.
2 - not a lot of power (mines not turboed) so you have to put your foot in it when you want it to move. Enough power for any normal need but no thrills to be had.
3 - It's almost too cute for such a manly man as myself. But I live with it.
4 - Engine bay is TIGHT when you need to work on it. Luckily it has not needed much.
5 - can't think of a fifth thing....
I never expected it to be such a good car. Only bought it because it was really low priced and I had literally 2 days to buy a car before the "cash for clunkers" deal expired and my old truck was on it's last legs. Compared to the other econoboxes for similar price it was like a cadillac in terms of fit and finish, interior quality look. Also, unlike most of the other econoboxes, you could get a NICE pleasant color interior instead of the cheap dreary black almost all the others had.
Had my 2004 for six months now, really love it and enjoy working on it. Have had many cars and this is the most fun to drive. Not fast but that’s fine. Very practical car.
As an owner of a '03 Limited, I can honestly say that the #1 pain in the butt with my PT is whenever I have to work on something under the hood. There is absolutely NO room to spare.
I also agree with your #1 fun thing, when my PT growls I almost have an orgasm. I love my PT, don't care at all what others think about it either, and hope I can keep it running forever. Great vid. Thanks.
Thanks!!! Always nice to hear someone else that understands what I'm talking about lol. Good luck with your limited edt and thanks for watching!! :D
I've had my PT for 6 years & it's been paid off for 4 years. I bought it used in 7/2011 & it was a one owner. Car had only 70k on it when I got it & now only has 90,500k. I've had to replace a couple of Things here & there, but anytime you buy a used car you're going to have to replace parts. Remember, it's not a new car, so things are going to wear out. Anyway, I have the Limited Edition, so it's the top model & I LOVE IT!!! It also handles very well in snowy conditions. All in all, it's a comfortable ride & made for cruisin' & is a lot of car for little money. I've traveled in mine through a few states & it got great gas mileage! So people that say they hate this little car has either bought a lemon, don't care for Chrysler, or they just don't like a 40s style retro. Me personally, I've never cared for Chrysler vehicles, but this little car I do! Plus there's so many ways you can modify these cars! They're a fun car to drive! ❤️😉👍🏻
Btw, I forgot to mention Hyatt my PT Cruiser is an '02!
"That" not Hyatt lol
Haha, Awesome!! Exactly, things on a used car are bound to go wrong (or on any car for that matter). Haters or no haters, it's a very fun car especially for the $$! And the issues could be a lot worse. Your PT sounds super clean, especially for a 2002!! Always great to meet another satisfied PT owner!! :D thanks for watching!
Here is one advantage of Chrysler vehicles ua-cam.com/video/HTWRgBg67Qo/v-deo.html

Right! Thing is, they also have big tanks for being a smaller car. My PT Cruiser has a bigger tank than my husband’s Grand AM. These little cars go a long way on a tank & are easy on the wallet/pocketbook when it comes to travel & even in town! 👍🏻
To me i think the PT Cruiser is a pretty good car i have had mine for omost a year and im really liking it. For it being my first car I cant complain. mines a 2001 and is close to 200,000 miles and still running strong.
Awesome!! Glad to hear you like your PT too! Thanks for watching!
John Preciado my 2001 pt is only 2 miles away from going to 300000 miles and i take very good care of it
I'm going to look at one today! It's an 06 touring edition. I'm 33 and have kids so I'm not super worried about how fast it drives or how cool it sounds lol, but I'm pretty excited. I'm getting a great price on it so even better 😁
Awesome!! Good luck! It is a lot of fun to drive, and with kids I'm sure it will be practical as well! Thanks for watching :)
Junior Velasquez lol
Don't buy please for your own good. Worst car ever made. Trust me
Man, your videos make my day and I love watching them when there's nothing else to do.
Please keep it up!
Thanks man! Much appreciated!
You gotta take the bad with the good. No car is perfect, there is always be something that you would change about a car that you drive daily. . even if it is only a small thing.
i literally just saw an 05 pt gt turbo convertible on sale in my area for $3500. 119k miles. i just saw it tonight. you cant beat that deal.. a turbocharged car for that cheap.
im sure you will miss this car when you do finally sell it. if you're like me, you build a bond with a car that you work on yourself. you've done brake work, engine work, suspension work, steering work, custom lighting, not to mention all of the time cleaning and detailing it. whether you want to admit it or not, this car is a part of you now. lol
Yep, gotta take the good with the bad!!! Especially with a daily like this. That is a very good deal!! And yes, it's really hard to beat that price with any forced induction vehicle anymore, that's why I don't regret for one minute buying this thing. I will miss the PT GT when shes gone, you are right, it's hard not to form a bond with a car that you do work to and take care of, and I have done a lot of both to this old heifer lol. It will be sad, but I'm sure much better will come!!! Thanks for watching dude :)
True! My family has an 06 PT Touring, absolutely love it, engine blew in February though, blew with 172,000 on the clock... but we refuse to give it up, getting a new engine in January and we can't be more excited!
Awesome!!!!! Great to hear!! I know I've loved mine, it's been a great experience to say the least. Good luck with yours!! Thanks for watching
These cars are so inexpensive. I don't see it worthwhile to put a new engine in one, unless upgrading it. I would just go get another PT Cruser and park the old one. (I wouldn't get rid of it).
I just did this with my Scion Xb, but I actually am planning on fixing it. My front end is messed up, it shakes bad going down the road and keeps destroying wheel bearings.
So I ended up getting a near mint 09 PT Cruiser for $1000.
Love your videos and love that you look like a kid but have the heart of a truly “old soul.”
My 2006 PT Cruiser has 400,000 miles on it (plus a few). I did a video on it rolling over. She needed a new engine in at 289K miles and a new PCM around 360K. The timing belt is a pain to change, but I really can't complain about a car that can go this many miles.
That's awesome!!!
I've only owned Honda's, and one Toyota. I've had two prelude EX SIs, a 2.3vtec accord, an EX CR-V, an EX element, an EX passport, and a corolla S. all of which were amazing cars. I loved the speed of the prelude and accord. I loved the room and capabilities of the the SUV's. recently some ahole stole my car and totaled it and against my will we got a fkn PT Cruiser. needless to say I was less than happy about it. that's the one car I SWORE to myself I would NEVER EVER own...EVER! the day after we bought the car I drove it around town. I can't believe the way this car drives. it is amazing! not only is it fast as hell but it has so much room. I never would have thought that the fastest car I owned was a PT Cruiser. I absolutely love this car.
That is awesome to hear! Even I will say Hondas have plenty of pirks and are extremely reliable, but these PT Cruisers are down right fun!! "Quirky" if you will. I wouldn't trade the experience of owning mine for sure. Is yours a GT as well? And is it a auto or 5 speed? I wish mine was a manual so bad although the 4 speed auto is better than I thought it would be. Thanks for the comment, and good luck!! #ptsquad
I bought my PT Cruiser GT (You can see an exhaust video of it on my channel) as a car for my girlfriend. She loves PT Cruisers, so I made a deal, you get a GT and we'll go find you one. We got ours for $2900 with 130K and really nice. I would have never thought the PT Cruisers were as good as they are... SO much room and it's so tiny. The motor sounds and runs amazing. We have the auto-stick with a Stage 1 PCM and it is really fun to drive.
I think I may make a video reviewing it as well, I've had it long enough at this point to know the goods and bads about it. My biggest gripe is the turn radius. Haha.
Love the video, keep it up!
Thanks dude!! Always great to hear from another happy PT owner!! I'll have to check out you're channel! I didn't even think of the turning radius, but it is odd, you'd think it'd be really good on a car this small but it's terrible. Thanks again for watching, and good luck with yours!!
I think it shares much of its design with the mini vans only smaller .
Even though mine isn’t a GT, I absolutely love my PT Cruiser. It’s a 2006 base model. I was thinking of supercharging it. But I got it in August and it has been extremely reliable, paid $3,300 and it has 65k miles. I have an obsession with PT Cruisers
Hi I've just found your video and I agree with most of your likes and dislikes. Working on the car is a nightmare and if you think yours is bad try working on the diesel version. The 2.2 Merc engine is virtually bombproof but under the hood it's rammed full so much so that the battery is housed under the passenger seat. Getting that out is a swine. The cars electrics can be a pain also, my radio has been replaced and still doesn't light up so changing channels is hit and miss. On the plus side the body is aluminium so no rust and I love the shape, It's what we in the UK call a Marmite car. Marmite is a beef extract that you either love or hate by the way. Oh and the steering lock is terrible but overall?, yes I'd buy another.
I have heard that the 2.2l diesel is even worse to work on! I didn't know that about the battery tho lol. Sounds like a mess! I wish I could see/drive a diesel for myself, unfortunately we never got them in the US. A Marmite car indeed haha, neat expression. But I feel the same way about my GT, I'd definitely buy another despite the quirks! Thanks for watching :D
Had this exact car new at 25 my wife wrecked it at29 . I’m 40 now I miss it so much! My fave car ever owned and ya man you always have to explain it ..>.
About a month ago I bought a 2006 base convertible with the five speed stick, for $4,000. 28,000 miles!!!
I just got an 04 base model and I LOVE it. I grew up on with an HHR and it reminds me of that. It brings back really good memories and the engine is powerful enough for the size of the car. The versatility is great too!
Dustin Hart I’m glad to see you upgraded by your profile pic
That thing sounds awesome!
I have a 2001 pt Cruiser touring. It just reached 80, 000 miles. Still running great. It has some nice black painted rims with chrome ring. It is a silver color. The only problems I had were the brakes but other than that it's fun to drive. The interior still looks new other than the salt from winter. The body is a little rusty underneath. Everything functions the way it should. I love my car.
My cruise control works... it's just sometimes you have to turn it off and on a few times to get it to function
I love my pt cruiser. It has its quirks like every other car, but i bought it used and have had very little problem out of it. I wanted 1 as soon as they came out and finally found the perfect one for me 2 years ago. As i said i absolutely love my car
My 2005 PT Cruiser is going to turn over 205,000 miles next week in January 2019. Still love it!
I 'm a producer and can tell you, son, you got it, great little video...
:D thank you!
I've owned a 2006 convertible for about 3 years now & LUV it, Have had very few issues,the stereo has no guts & the manual gearbox is sloppy from 1st to 2nd but considering it's age, I'm happy, Being here in the tropics of Queensland Australia means having the roof down is fantastic & i can't imagine ever having a hardtop car again.
Gotta be honest & admit my mechanic isn't a big fan, His comment had me chuckling -
"It's sort of like they designed a beautiful 40's looking car & suddenly went, ;Ohh shit, we didn't leave enough room for the motor' & just shoehorned it in"
Hate: Turn radius! It's turn radius is roughly equivalent to the Nimitz. I simply don't know how that is possible with a car that size.
hey I have a 2004 PT cruiser GT Woody white with the wood grain trim plus it is the five speed stick which is a major difference when u drive it love my woody
Nice!!! Woodys are getting super rare to see anymore, especially around where I live... I'm jealous, I want a 5 speed!! Good luck with yours, and thanks for watching
GR8 job 😊
Yeah,I have a PT CruiserLimited for £1000, about $1500, it IS a finicky MF to work on, tight engine bay, and yeah it does have a turning circle of a cruise liner BUT it's quirky, fun to drive and I really love it! Itis also in my favourite colour PURPLE#1lol with tinted rear windows leather seats and a good sterio and not that many about. nice mota...
Lol, yep it is a bear to work on. But that's a perfect way to describe it: "quirky"!! And oooo I like the purple lol!!! Thanks for watching, and good luck!
Nice video! I plan on buying one of these from my uncle. It is a 2002 Dream Cruiser in gold. I researched it and I found that only 600 were made in the gold so that's exciting! My only problem is the damage to the door and fender.
Just got a steal on a PT Cruiser for a first car for my 15 year old. He can't drive it yet, but I am looking forward to driving first!
I have a 2004 PT Cruiser also. It is a clutch. I love it.
I own a 2005 pt cruiser touring and i love it its sporty runs like a dream 183,000 on it its a very fun car to drive
I don't hate the car but it is ill crafted.
It's a parts bin concoction from Chrysler. How they had a 3 year waiting list here in Australia will always be a mystery to me.
Well I say your timing chain video I have actually watched a lot of your video and you make it look EASY so thank you...😁
Don't know if you still own it but I love the PT Cruiser .. and that's a nice GT, especially the 04
Dude, if I was in your shoes, a young lad living in America (greatest country AND greatest cars in the world) I would have picked out something else. Then again, you still have plenty of time and get yourself something awesome...Enjoy this PT while you have it, but please don't spend all your money it I'd say.
I agree! The PT GT was a deal I couldn't pass up, and I'm glad I didn't! But I don't plan to ever make it a prize winner for sure lol. Plenty to happen in the future I'm sure! Thanks for watching man :)
Harry Ireland it’s the best car you can get for the price, imo.
Man, I've owned over 50 cars. From 300c Chrysler's, magnum rts, and Cobalt SS/sc, and for the price, you can't buy an srt4 for what you can buy a gt cruiser for. If you want a fun car to put money in to make a mustang killer that nobody expects, it's a phenomenal car to start with.
I hated the steering. Can't turn around as quickly, so I sold my pt after 3-5 years and got a mazda 3 hatchback
Yeah, the turning radius is pretty bad for the size of the car. It hasn't affected me very much in the kind of driving I do though. I like the Mazda 3, I'm jealous haha! Thanks for watching
V nice video i love this car i just baught a pt crusier few days ago i love the shape and lot of things about this car but some people say it cost you lot of money for mantinance
Pt Cruisers arent a real good investment. Drove a buddies and in my opinion they are really shoddy build quality wise.
No, they aren't. I agree. Even when they were new they were cheap. They it's a lot of car for the price anymore. Thanks for watching!
None of the cars are good investments, besides classic
I just baught 2001 pt crusier . long time i was looking for this car i really love the shape of the pt as i like old classic cars this is so luxury the radio and sound system i love it sunroof i love it seats are heated and big trunk . you can fold the seat you can stay night in car gas vice good .windows are so clear you see so clear outside when i was driving it i felt like i am driving a cart or buggy horses 100 years ago so i am country guy i love old things . it does not look that fast or powerful . lot of things i like @bout this car but since i baught it i have changed the battery changed transmission oil and mufler . i baught it one week ago and now changing the timing belt. Mechanic look so angry as timing belt so hard to change . car has 180k on it outlook and interior i love it so let me see how it goes i will not spend any extra money on it . i hope it goes good i will drive it until it stop or i might sell but positive thing is i really enjoy the drive v comfortable sunroof folding seats interior sound system . in my opinion dont drive it too much just 10 km everyday then you can keep it long time you should not take it too mountains hills or longdrive
I have a 2001 with 90,000 Limited with moonroof and spoiler and rims silver
I enjoyed your video, bro! Awesome!
my pt cruiser 2008 63k 2-4 awesome car luv it luv it luv it red grey leather turning circle crap fuel consumption waaaaaa but its a small price to pay i paid £1900 18 months ago and its never missed a beat i love my pt
Nice!! Yep, you really can't beat it for the price, especially with that low mileage (or km). Lol yeah, the turning radius kind of sucks for being such a small car, and mpg is nothing to brag about. But like you said, it'll never miss a beat, and it rides great. Thanks for watching! :D
good video.
i was just wondering how many KMS did it have when you replaced the timing belt/water pump??
try working on a full size truck with a crammed engine bay then tell me that's hard to work on lol
PT cruisers are great I don’t like that people hate it
You didn't even mention the engine is the same one used in the 2003-2005 SRT-4!!
I know, and I could kick myself for that. For some reason it never occurred to me at the time of filming. That's why so many people underestimate the PT GTs, nobody understands that it literally has the SRT4 motor. I want to make another video soon just talking on that topic. Thanks for watching
Channel C.G.E. It's true man. I have an SRT-4 and am picking up a PT GT HO tomorrow to run as a daily, and just in time for winter. I'll be bulking up the SRT while I'm dailying the PT GT, and I'll be able to deal with it more easily because I'll be driving something quick. I'm excited, which is why I'm watching PT GT videos lol
Oh awesome dude!! Congrats on the new whip! That's my goal as well, to keep my current GT as the daily/cruiser with a few bolt ons and someday get another GT or SRT4 as the power house lol. Best of luck to ya! :D
I only hate the gas mileage and the leaking air on my tires! It has a very sturdy body. Mine is black 2006. 35,000 miles. My air conditioner just ran out. I think it only needs a refill! I run it a lot! Had a Jeep Cherokee for 16 years before buying this car. I call it my Putt Putt Cruiser!
Yes, the gas mileage could be better! I'm already OCD about checking my tire pressure, so it doesn't bother me so much lol! Glad to hear you like your PT as well!! Coming from a Cherokee must have been quite a transition! Good luck :D
Your AC fan may have went out which makes the AC stop working
I saw the last puff of freon blow out. Fans are working. Getting my vehicle serviced next week. Thanks. I will update!
I had the exact same problem and the PT is notorious for the AC cooling fan dying like that. There are several vids here that show you how to fix it though. Good luck.
Ended up being a leak and the heater core. 1900.00. They have to take off the entire dashboard. And now when the a/c is on and I am at an idle it feels like the car is going to stall but it doesn't.
I do hate all of that. But I also hate that it has so many blind spots.
Any thoughts on what replacement coil I should use as an upgrade from the factory?
Thanks for the video man. Im considering a 2005 PT because a friend has one at a really good price. It has 110,000 miles. Can you point out the major things to watch out for at that mileage? Things that should be replaced or need to be replaced soon. Thanks
Glad you liked the vid! Good luck! At 110,000mi, I would say the biggest thing to think about is the timing belt/water pump job. It's best to get that done around that mileage, and to have somebody else do it it can cost upwards of $800 - $1,000. There is potential your friend already had the job done too, if so that is a big selling point. The PTs have a lot of little quirky issues, as an owner it can get a little annoying, but it could be worse!
Ive seen the timing belt break at 91000 miles, so it really depends on the driving habits of the driver.
Interesting to know! I've heard of them breaking before but I assumed it was at high mileage. Thanks for the info
i just bought this same car mine is blue though paid $2300 for it pretty good car too its old ofcourse but gets you where you need to go
Trouble working on it? Try changing the plugs on a Tiger II
Love your videos
Thank you! :D
Love my 04 PT GT... worst thing for me..Turning radius.
Love the black GT !
Thanks!! Me too 😆
I just got a black 03 GT to go with my 04 Dream Cruiser
That’s awesome!!!
Got PT 2005 I think I'm overthinking got a good deal but how much am I going spend fixing ? Has small oil leak & thinks its leaking antifreeze
I recently got a used pt cruiser and need to take it from Chicago to LA. Do you think it would be fine on the road, it’s basically a day trip. With all the bad stuff I’m hearing about the car I got, I’m scared to take it on the road. Please get back to me. Thank you!!
As long as the car feels fine to you (no prominent bad vibrations or weird noises), I’m sure it will be perfectly fine! My PT was worst-case-scenario, and despite that it never left me on the side of the road. They need an occasional bearing or bushing as the mileage goes up, but it won’t blow up on the side of the road! Tbh it’s an awesome road trip car! Good luck and stay safe on the trip, and thanks for stopping by the channel!!
Channel C.G.E. I have heard that people have over heating problems. Would that be a problem for me and yeah man. Great video and thank you!!
I doubt you'll have an overheating issue if you haven't noticed anything odd already. I've heard it's an issue but I've never had a problem with either one of our PTs over heating. I know sometimes the cooling fan is an issue, but the only time you would notice that is when you're parked for any length of time with the car on, on the highway road-tripping it wouldn't cause a problem! :D Thanks and good luck!
I realise this is an old thread, but a few things should be checked, and or, replaced before a long trip. Mainly, the cooling system needs to be thoroughly inspected. Replace the thermostat, and fluids if you don't know when last replaced. Check the hoses for signs of cracking, how pliable they are. If the hoses seem squishy or have cracks when you compress them, replace. Tighten the hose clamps firmly, but not tight, they don;t need a lot of torque applied. Get the car up to temp, turn on the heater, and thoroughly inspect for the slightest of leaks, inside on the floor boards and under the dash, underneath the vehicle, inside the engine bay, while paying attention to the radiator for slight leaks. The PT has two belts the serpentine, and power steering, the serpentine being the more important belt as it drives the alternator which charges the battery which in turn powers the electronics on the car. Look for general ware and tear, fraying of the belts, cracks, and the tension should be firm, but not tight.
That's about it for now, i was bored, and hopefully this will help someone as it applies to all vehicles, not just the PT.
HATE:
#1. Explaining to people what a PT Cruiser is...
#2. Wish he had a manual tranny instead of an auto...
#3. Flaws in paintwork (damaged clearcoat)
#4. Not easy to work on
#5. The age of the car (things wearing out)
LIKE:
#1. Sound of engine, muffler removed (only kids like that)
#2. Wheels
#3. Its looks in general
#4. Sunroof/moonroof
#5. Price; a lot of car for the money
You're welcome.
Love the look and they overheat horrible
I miss my GTPT
Ya gotta love the pt cruiser it blows my hair back spins my wheels
If the jag offs on UA-cam say it's a pos ugly car,then you know you got a chilling vehicle
the manual is super fun
idk if you still have it but i got the came just gold got it for 1000 and already put 20k on it
videos do not need loud noise, if you have something to say get to it, do not think every one will listen to the noise, and will watch the video,
I'm 6'3" would the pt cruiser have enough leg room for me
Always been a Mopar Muscle Baby Boomer, Had the R/T, Chargers, 70 GTX, 69 Road Runner, Cuda, Way to far out of my price range, Should of kept them, like money in the bank, Fast Forward now, 63, Bought a 2003 GT Turbo 2.4 Turbo High output,Doing Mechanic work all my life, The car had a lot of issues as you say, A bitch to work, But all done now, and I got my first speeding ticket in PA, And being honest it was one of their speed traps, that I was warned about, 65 to 45, in about 300 ft, and being out of state, and buzzing with the other traffic, I was the winner, or loser, could of been worse, wrote me for 5 over, I thanked him and went on my wife, And then the sermon from the wife, I was going to my son's
wedding in Ohio, Anyway about the GT, Turbo, I was totally impressed with the performance of this little Red Beast, I'm thinking about having a decal made across the Trunk saying, " Don't Forget to tell your Friends, because all they can see is the hatchback, Very much pleased,
totally agree with you about the stereotypical people about when you say that you have a PT Cruiser I get a weird look but i honestly love my PT Cruiser and people also always gives me compliments also shop there is alot of mixed emotions about these awesome hatchbacks
Michael Richards
Exactly! But hey, haters gonna' hate I guess, right? Lol. Great to hear someone else loves their PT! Thanks for watching! :)
Channel C.G.E. yep I am going to deck my out a little bit has some stuff already done
Cool!! What have you done to yours so far?
Channel C.G.E. it has after market rims and has a decal on it I got it that way I want to put a chrome grill on it Chrome mirrors and chrome accent pieces on the doors there's a couple spots where I have to fix it whoever had it before me I think backed up into something and put dent in the rear passenger side so my father and I are going to fix that next summer and right below the drivers for bottom of the wheel well little spot of rust but nothing we can't fix I would send a picture through here but I don't know how to our if you can lol I actually might take it to car shows here in Ohio once I get it all fixed up
I own a 400hp 05 gt. love the thing to death!
Sick!!!! I would love to mod mine and get more out of it... maybe some day. Good luck with yours! What all have you done to it?
since its the same as the srt4 motor. I have cp pistons, eagle connecting rods, race bearing, ported head, custom intake manifold, Evo 8/9 20g turbo, diablo trinity tuner, 1500cc injectors, tail bov, fmic, south bend stage 3 clutch, sitting on srt4 rims.
mine is a 05 black manual gt. same exact as yours. just manual.
Dude that is sick!! I am so jealous haha!
Grant Gaines how do u put so much hp
Hard to replace Timing Belt on interference engine = $600 scheduled maintenance every 70,000 mile.= Fail.
Love mine too
thats my late fathers favorite car.
He is still with us with comments like this that keep him alive I know it's not the same but it's as real as it gets miss my dad too!
It's actually a dodge neon with a different body...
Actually there are massive differences. Only the front chassis is shared with the Neon. Other than that, totally different.
Love my 5 speed pt turbo! Get a 5 speed...

oops defrost and power windows should be on like hahhaa
Hahaha! Yes, the tranny is pretty laggy for an automatic. The 2007 Touring I drove with an auto was even worse than mine! I would never own an N/A unless it was stick. The turning radius was another thing I forgot, you would think it would be a lot better in a car this small! But oh well.
Moog should hire you as their head salesman!!! Haha!
They're not laggy if you put a Stage 1 PCM on them. It's super fast. It'll chirp 1st, 2nd, and almost third. The transmission is learning one, so if you drive like a dick head, it's do burnouts every time it shifts.
I'm getting a gt on friday for 800
You need to look down and read that shirt you have .

30 seconds in I must say what enthusiast doesnt know the Chrysler pt cruiser mistake? lol
I'm sorry but I'm just gonna come right out and say it but I think the Chrysler PT cruiser looks absolutely UGLY!!!!
The look is a just to disgusting to get over
Pt cruisers are probably the worst looking cars next to the hhr and the hhr truck
Guess you’re entitled to that opinion. Me and a lot of other people love them because they’re unique, retro and pretty damn clean.
May be you look more ugly than pt who knows
Theirs nothing to like about a pt cruiser
There's a lot to like about them.
Channel C.G.E. My family had one there ugly and unreliable
Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Idk what problems yours had, I know mine has had quite a few but most cars with 100k+ miles have the same sort of issues. 🤷🏻♂️ especially if they’re neglected like mine was by previous owners
that car looks like aids gross never would be seen in that thing lol
To each his own.
+Paul chlouba Only guys who are insecure worry about their image. You sound like one of them
