I know replacing the struts and shocks will help but I want to make it better. Since the pt cruiser is based on the dodge neon platform, is the rear suspension interchangeable? I hope that I'm not the only one to dream of a irs equipped pt

I think the SRT has independent rear. So not a a swap parts thing. It is a 3200 lb hippo. A sway bar will help with the roll some but aggravate the ride issue. Tires and psi rating will have a huge impact on ride. Runflat tires are hard riding as well. Low profile is not good for ride comfort either. But I find my ride good for a vehicle of its size. If the pt has been lowered then the springs used could adversely affect the ride.
