Default Pics of the 2006 PT Cruiser

Saw this on autoblog. I can honestly say I don't even know whey they are wasting their time. Squared headlights? Eventally every car will look like a 300/Magnum I fear.

Hard to tell what it'll look like...
I do like the tires - some rubber between the road and the rim - for the potholes laying in wait for me.
The PT looks like mine after recent snows...

Looks like they flated the whole frontal area.

Looks like they flattened and lowered the front bumper, tweaked he grill and headlights, and put on fatter tires. Nothing fancy. [:I]

doubt this is really what it will be, think i have seen this pic before. know they said it would look like the california cruiser concept of a year or two ago (which this pic does not). i'd expect round projector beams under sculpted headlight lenses with a chrome grill (picture the front of a crossfire on the cruiser and you get the idea). currently, the cruiser is the only chrysler that does not have these design themes, so makes sense that the face lift will change that....

I personally don't like it at all. It has an "econocar" look to the front end now. Maybe that's Chryler's aim...I don't know. Glad I got the 2005 models.

I doubt that the headlights are "squared" at all, the matting over the front end is there to hide the true shape.
