New inferno red Cruiser

[magbrutus]

Hello everyone, I want to start off by saying this sight has been so helpful to me when I purchased my pre-owned Limited 2001 cruiser.
I want to thank everyone on here. This is my first PT Cruiser and I love this car. I wish I had purchased one years ago. I love driving it.

I purchased the car from a local guy that was going out of business. The car needed a tune up and a complete cleaning inside, It was the dirtiest vehicle I have ever seen. What I liked about it was that when he purchased it new he had flames painted on that ran him about $2,800.00. I feel I stole the car from him or $650.00. Picture's after I cleaned it. Thanks again everyone for all the help I found here.

Looks great. That is a steal if there's nothing wrong with it. The bumpers need touching up but the rest is very nice.

Thank You, I'm going to have both bumpers painted this spring. Other than that, car runs really nice.

welcome.
Is the decimal in the right place? $650 IS a steal....
How many miles? If around 100,000, pland on getting the timing belt and water pump changed...
Sunroof, too - SWEET.

The previous owner put a new engine on the car which now has 78K. He gave me paperwork for the new engine and paperwork for a new clutch just last year, along with front struts, and front ball joints. Odometer now reads 198K.

Only thing I did was a complete tune and cleaning. I will be doing the rear shocks sometime soon. Priced them locally at $22.00 each. I gotta tell you the car runs really nice, seems very dependable, and for the price. I've done a few things inside, like painted the radio bezel, painted the overhead console, and covered the center of the door panels in red suade. In all I spent $35.00 in that alone. I think it came out really nice. I will be doing the headliner next.
