Default '02 Dream Cruiser or '03 GT Turbo

Im looking at these 2 cruisers but cant decide. Can get either one for the same price at 2 different places, about $14,700. Just 20k on the Dreamer, 30k on the GT. Both mint. Give me some suggestions to consider. I like that the Dreamer is different and not seen as much, but I also would love to have the turbo. My first pick is the '03 Dreamer but havent seen one yet for sale. Thanks for the help. John.

Unless you really like the color of the Dreamer I'd go with the GT, since, if performance is a factor, [8)] you would probably be happier with it in the long run. Good luck, and welcome to the forum, CHEETAH.

With a name like cheetah, you have to go with the GT. We have all decided for you, GT is the way to go.

I like your first pick.


The prices on both seem a little high. You may still be able to find a new '03 GT for nearly the same price.

I have never had a Dreamer but I have had the Limited and now have the GT and I would never trade the turbo for regular engine.

i would buy the GT. the extra 65 hp is a significant difference that is apparent everytime you stand on it! it is worth the extra money. a number of people in my club feel that they should have come up with the extra money for the GT instead of getting the non turbo pt.
but.....the tangerine on the dreamer is a very nice color. one of the guys in my club has one and it looks very nice. on a sunny day, woof--almost as nice as my electric blue.

GT is a must!

Want the gas milage of a regular cruiser? Just don't press the throttle past 25%.

Want the extra joy in life? [8)] + a turbo timer would be nice
