What We Don't

-Performance in non-turbo model with automatic
-Body lean
 
Styling that incorporates elements of 1930s panel trucks and 1950s street rods is what makes the Chrysler PT Cruiser turn heads. Four trim levels are available, with a choice of two turbocharged engines or a normally aspirated four-cylinder. A PT Cruiser Convertible joined the wagon in spring 2004. Styling revisions, equipment changes and a more powerful, high-output, turbocharged engine mark the 2006 models.   Read More
