A small cute versatile people and stuff mover with thurst of a truck
Source: MSN Autos

...Pros: Storage space, versatility, seating position, steering feel Cons: Lack of power, poor gas mileage.
I was very easy on the car but wasn't able to get better than 18 mpg.
For a car of this size and only 150 hp such gas mileage is far from good.
The car noticebly struggles when loaded or when needs to merge to a highway traffic.
Overall: If you don't mind 18 mpg and profound lack of power and want instead a versatile people/stuff mover this can could work for you...

..."This is my third Cruiser 01 02 08. All have been good cars.
Easy to get in and out, nice features-does exactly what it promises.
Am again pleased to have one as a runabout. Have yet to need repairs on any of them. Either they are good cars or I have exceptional luck."...

Convertible fun !
Source: MSN Autos

...Pros: Very much a fun vehicle. Turbo gives extra punch, and comes with a sportier suspension package.
Quick, responsive, throaty. All controls are well-placed.
Nice readouts on computer interface in the dash. Cons: Not that roomy, but OK.
Low MPG prevents me from driving much. 19.3 avg, 24.7 on hwy.
I get better mileage from my 99 Buick Park Ave with a 3.8 six-cyl Overall: If you want a great mid-life crisis vehicle, the PT Convertible is your car...

#7
Great Car

...Pros: Extremely comfortable and fun to drive. Easy entry and exit for 55 year old 6'-2" guy.
Great stereo and controls. Lots of room in cargo area with seats folded up or removed.
Lots of legroom in back seats for tall people. Best car I've ever had!
Cons: Wish it had built in GPS. Other than that, no complaints. Overall: Test drove alot of cars foriegn and domestic. Couldn't find anything better for the money...

ULTIMATE VEHICLE
Source: MSN Autos

...Pros: Very quiet,solid,super interior room, and the turbo is fantastic..feels like a small Mercedes,
but then Daimler was part of Chrysler at that time and some of their product design went into this car.
A timeless, fun to drive vehicle! Cons: mILEAGE COULD BE BETTER. Overall: FUN TO DRIVE PERFORMS VERY WELL...

Let's Cruise 'til the wheels wear off...

...Pros: Bring Back The Days of the 'Woody era'! Saw a couple with the side wood panels.
wasn't empesssed but there was effort... Cons: Narrow! Overall: Just takes getting used to; at 6.1 inchs tall, love the leg and head room!...
