Honestly, for what they're asking, I'd rather spend $1000-2000 more and get a WRX. More horsepower and you get AWD 😀. Not a fan of the pt cruisers styling either.

Nothing can save an ugly car, not even a turbo.

Now, if they would just lose the back doors, and put metal panels in the back windows.

PT Cruiser Sedan Delivery 😀

Another 2 door version

It was a few months back. Selling better than either the 300M, Sebring Sedan/Coupe, T&C, Concorde/LHS


Year to date (March '03)

PT Cruiser -- 30,754
T&C (next best selling Chrysler) -- 29,665

Well I guess I am one of the few around here that actually likes the way the car looks. The only problem I see with them lowering the price is if it gets down to the srt-4's price who is going to buy that ugly thing 😉. Chrysler has some of the best looking cars on the road. Hell even the neon is a pretty nice looking car for what it is.
