I don't care what you say about the PT Cruiser but this looks pretty cool. I wouldn't buy it but hey it looks nice.

Comments?

I actually like it abit...and I like the lines with the top up too....it's got the old custom chop-top hot rod look to it.

I still don't like it...but then again, I've never been a fan of that basket handle on any car.

Kind of looks like the bastard son of a Dodge Ram and VW Cabrio.

I like it. Cram a big V8 and 6 speed tranny and yo baby! Probably wouldn't fit. But I still like the look.

The latest issue of Autoweekhas a quote by Chrysler design chief Trevor Creed saying that the PT will soon be available with a turbo. While not revealing any torque or hosepower figures, he did say, "It's like the car is 1000 pounds lighter."
