Default Consumer Reports recommends the PT...

Cruiser as a "BUY" (CR top pick) and rates it above-average in RELIABILTIY, SATISFACTION, and DEPRECIATION. The summary review on Page 42 of the April 04 issue of the magazine states "The PT's above-average reliability allows us to recommend it." [^]

It's nice to hear "above-average in RELIABILTIY, SATISFACTION, and DEPRECIATION.", but I think it's the value - what I got for my money compared to the other choices - that make me appreciate the PT.

Someone once told me that I should lease it. That in a few years like 2 I would not want it anymore and it wouldn't hardly be worth anything because the depreciation would be very high. How I would like to hit him in his mouth with this CR now. I still love this car even though it could use some more power and MPG. Im glad I bought it.
