I would not say the N/A PT is all that slow but at the time I got it the turbos were out and the GT a year later. Its about 7-8 months old now, how time flies, and was 32 mods before now too. If I had waited about 6 more months and had paid my old car off by then I would be able to get the GT or the turbo with Chrylser finacial and my 3-4 down, more then I had. I had only put about a grand down then because that all I had to give. At the time my moms old car was on its last leg and since I make the money now because she is on disablility, I had to find something to fit the family in and with a good price. So I could pass on a dicently taking care of car with no payment on to her.

You know how most kids get thier first cars from thier parents well, I gave my first car to my parents.

Yes I would like more power but from an older car that had 115 horse to the 150 in the PT is a big difference.

I would test drive both, if allowed, and see which one best suits you. Last word of advice, If you like the color of the dreamer and the fact that it is old by two years now get it. But if you like the power of the one year old GT, the power is something more expensive then a paint job.

Don't get me wrong I will always love my N/A PT.

Turbo is definitely the way to go. My only concern would be the 30K miles on the 03 GT. Ask for an independent inspection if you are not buying from a Chrysler dealer. BTW is it an early build '03 or later?

I'd personally take the DREAM CRUISER with a SUPERCHARGER added to it...... but I'm a little biased [?]
