Wife traded in her 1994 Dodge Mini Van with 144,000 miles which we ordered new in February of 94. Now she has to wrestle the PT from me but she wins for two reasons! 1) You all know that one and 2) she can't drive my stick shift 87 Mustang GT Convertible!

Had a 2000 Dodge Neon. Was a nice car, but had some issues with brakes and suspenison. Squeeks and noises seem to be common with American cars.

My previous car (well, still have it; waiting to turn it in in a month .....a lease) was a 2000 Volvo S40. Although I really liked it when I first got it, it was in the shop more times than I care to even mention. About 50% of the work done was MAJOR work (Brakes, mostly), and half the time, the technicians were stumped as to how to fix the car correctly, or that they said it was fixed, but never road tested the car to check! 9 times out of 10, I had to go back to Volvo because the problem wasn't fixed correctly, or strangly enough, in some cases the problem was even worse! I'll be so happy to get rid of that piece of junk!

I checked with countless numbers of people when I considered purchasing my PT, and ALL of the people that I spoke to stated that they had NO problems with their cars! That sold me! So far, after 2 weeks of my PT GT 5spd, I love it!

I traded in my red 2000 Dodge Dakota Quad Cab PU on my new GT Turbo. The truck was fully-loaded, in mint condition, with only 21,486 miles on it. Hated to part with it, but, just didn't need a truck anymore, and, the sporty GT PTC with lots of interior room to haul stuff (fishing gear, dog, etc.), looked like a mighty good exchange. No regrets.<img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

"Other than driving my Inferno Red GT TurboI'd rather be fishing."

Bought the PT because it was a 2001 leftover Limited in Inferno Red with side airbags and traction control. No rebates or special financing. Then gradually sold my other three cars - 93 Seville STS (daily driver - miss the power of that Northstar), 67 Grand Prix convertible (never did really love that car), 63 Principality of Monaco Special Edition Landau Thunderbird (the love of my car life, but I couldn't afford to restore it). Down now to the PT. Hope to keep it forever.

1996 Mystic Cobra was the last car I owned before my PT GT. Sweetest paint job ever on a production vehicle, in my opinion.

03 Silver GT - Stock as of now!
