I just bought an '03 PT Turbo yesterday (3/26) and I'm totally in love! This is my first new car ever, and it just begs to be driven!
I wanted to get a car that could get out of its own way, and I also wanted unique styling as well as headroom for my 6 foot self. The attention to detail is amazing, you can feel the love that went into the GT's design.
The power and handling is excellent! I drove around all last night, and it was raining here, but I felt like I was driving on dry pavement. With this car I can stop on a dime and give 9 cents change.
I took mine up the steepest roads in my area and I felt no lack of power whatsoever (this is my biggest complaint with my Mazda Protege). I was barely tapping on the gas pedal and it was just cruising along like I was on a flat road. I'm telling you, this car has totally impressed me and it's all mine. <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
I can't wait to get out of work in 3.5 hours so I can go tooling around!
