2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser Reviews, Pricing & Specs

I totally love how it borders on being ugly but beautiful at the same time. Its unique and it has style and character. Its not just a car, but more of personality. With all the other features you are sure to enjoy driving this small, powerful engine. Dynamites come in small packages.

I got my Cruiser in 2004 as a high school graduation present. Before that I had other cars from popular brands amongst teenagers but they never really did anything from me. Those cars tended to be less stylish and on two of them I had terrible experiences with because of their reliability issues (which was funny because I had gotten those cars because of their reliability records). The cruiser has far exceeded all my expectations, I absolutely love it and dont care what people think.

Wolf in sheep's clothing. Sleeper car, and very practical. Good looking, and unique, very customizable. Handling leaves a bit to be desired, but improvements are relatively affordable. Comfortable on long trips, and just a cool car. Poor resale value, but that's fine if you're buying it used!

I purchased this PT Cruiser GT new back in 2004 and it has been an outstanding vehicle for these last ten years. The PT Cruier GT was initially purchased primarily to be a family car, yet with good looks, power, and lots of bells and whistles. Since then, the GT has changed job descriptions for us and never came up short. A grand tourer for family vacations, grocery getter, bringing home the 55" flat screen TV, hauling lawn and garden materials from the DIY store, etc. I eventually became the primary driver of this Cruiser, using it for my daily commutes back and forth to work. The turbocharged engine easily gets the car up to speed from offramps and merging lanes and the ride is very smooth with just the right amount of firmness. Bad weather has been no problem, either. In addition to ABS brakes, the PT Cruiser has a low speed traction control feature that has helped with snowy roads from this past winter. The car is superbly well planted and the front wheel drive pulls the car through the snow and ice without any drama. This PT Cruiser has been a wonderfully dependable vehicle and should be considered as one of Chrysler's greatest offerings of all times. For the money, you will be hard pressed to find a better car.

I love my PT Cruiser. I bought it new in April, 2005. It was the last 2004 on the dealer's lot and I got a great deal on it. I absolutely love this car. I already (as of February, 2009) have 130,000 miles on it. It has great utility... it's amazing what I can put in the back of the car with the seats folded up... and I can carry even more if I need to by removing the back seats completely. It is very comfortable... I've taken some long trips in the car and I don't mind spending the day in it driving. I really have enjoyed the leather seats that have suede inserts. And the seat heaters area great on a chilly morning. I have only had a couple of problems with the car. The dealer had put the rims and low-profile tires on the car and it was horrible... I went through tires like MAD! Finally, in December, 2007, I bought a new set of rims and decent tires. The car rides better, handles better, and these tires are holding up very well. It has also drastically improved my gas milage. The only other problem I had was the 6-disc changer went out. Fortunately, I had bought a 100,000 mile warranty when I bought the car and it was covered. They replaced the changer and then had to send the defective unit to the factory so they could remove my CDs. They then sent them back to the dealer where I had the repaire done and I picked them up. I really love my car. It's really been good for me.

It is good for a small family. The fact the back seat folds forward is nice when needing to transport things.

Great Car..Love the styling and the appearance. Interior is Comfortable and does not feel tight on long trips. And mine has a woody package so it gets lots of attention. Gas mileage is best with premium gas. No major repairs or issues. Oh heck just plan love it.

well with all the mods I have done to my PT and the zero problems i have had w/ her i can not complain except for what i paid for the stupid thing! 0 to 60 in about 6 sec and the 1/4 mile @ 14.5 @ 107 Mods - intake, exhaust, h&r lowering springs, sway bars to name a few. the Stage one Turbo upgrade is the best. gas mileage - 18 to 20 city and 24 to 26 hwy. not bad for a 260 Hp turbo.

It's cute & the seats are comfortable. There is colored paneling found on the car's dashboard that matches the exterior color of the car. There is lots of space inside for putting groceries in & everything is easy to find in there. The car looks really great in red.

Very quick, but a harsh ride and not a lot of room for the kids
