Lots of bang for the buck.
As already stated, these cars were inexpensive to buy new and had lots of cool features. And as they aged and got super cheap for resale, that just heightened the value versus cost ratio. And I believe that's why today, even after what will soon be eight years out of production, there's still a very healthy membership of PT enthusiasts here on this forum and new ones signing up everyday. ;) |
Re: Reason for PT Cruiser Popularity...
Here are a couple Links regards the PT Cruiser and its Origins and Designer Bryan Nesbit........
http://www.carbodydesign.com/archive...bryan-nesbitt/ Here is a 2nd link that describes all the various Models of PT Cruisers... A Short History of the PT Cruiser - AutoInfluence Both articles are well worth reading... *Its worth noting that Bryan Nesbit tried to re-capture the Popularity and Universal appeal of the PT Cruiser when he joined GM in 2001, Designing the GM HHR, Solstice and several other GM offerings...Nothing has equaled the PT Cruiser's Unique Style... The PT Cruiser is definitely a Throwback to the 1930's, the PT Cruiser will only continue to grow in Popularity and Collector status, Buy now while still inexpensive....... |

I'd say "comfortable". A lot of smaller cars sit lower, at the expense of comfort. Not so with the Cruiser.

And that still seem to be a lot of PT's out there to be found, that are in excellent condition :coolblue: It would be cool 20 years from now to hear about a barn find PT with practically no miles on it and in pristine condition :cool: |
Re: Reason for PT Cruiser Popularity...
You should put yours in a barn, Rick. Then go find another one to drive. 20 years from now, you can say, "Hey, Look what I found!". :p
