I do not think this is the '06 PT Cruiser. Pics of several of these "PTs" have been on the internet for over a year in fact Popular Mechanics showed a pic of one of these about a year ago and claimed it was the '05. On the current Cruiser the character line matchs the hood opening gap. On the one in the pic it just stops at the efge of the door.
OK what is this then if not the refresh Cruiser? I believe as do several others on a number of other forums that it is a test mule (drive train) for the upcoming Jeep Scout/Compass. And the grill show would fit a jeep. The Auto makers often put an old body on a new platfrom for testing.
