2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser Toring Edition review from North America
"The best car to drive and for family fun"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far so good. No problems at all.
The only think the muffle vibrates in a couple of occasions, with cold engine and in town. This problem has been fixed by the dealer for free.
General comments?
Excellent vehicle. I re-discover the pleasure to drive.
The looking is cool, buy this car if you want to distinguish yourself from others.
The seats are extremely comfortable, there is space for all the family and luggage.
Luxury interiors, excellent climatization, clear and easy to understand dashboard and instruments panel.
Drives like a minivan, very stable and secure in town and on highways.
Is missing a little power horses, buy I guess the Turbo model can do more.
Fuel economy is pretty good too.
I'm just waiting and looking for the 2006 models that should include an AWD version. At that point the PT Cruiser will be really the best buy car to have.
After years of Japanese vehicles, pleeeease, buy American!!!
My previous Nissan Pathfinder doesn't have a good level of finishing, was not very reliable and I have had to make as friend a petrol station guy...
