PT Turbo

What does anybody think about the Turboed PT Cruiser??
The specs if found are:
215 Hp & 245 ft/lb
3100lbs curb weight
Still ugly (IMO)

It's got more ***** the the standard PT, that's for sure....

Did you know that Chrysler has produced more turbo cars than any other car maker??

I think it's about time they put some power in that thing...

I read a quote somewhere about the PT Cruiser that sums up my opinion quite well: "I like my old cars old and my new cars new."

It's also a super functional package. The cargo area is well designed and can hold a ton of stuff. It's much better than buying a mini-suv type vehicle. I wouldn't drive one, but it's great for other people.

I test drove a pt trubo the same day I drove my rex. Compared to the regular pt, the turbo smokes. The pt trubo I drove had the auto stick. I drove them both down a twisty country road, and I was very impressed with it. It's a little top heavy, but was a very close second behind the rex. I finally chose the rex due to the snow we get, plus it was a few grand cheaper. I would definitely recommend the gt cruiser to anyone.
