So true.
The Chrysler 300 and Magnum also made the Click&clack top 10 ugly list.

Yeah, so ugly that over 800,000 have been sold, the performance for a 4
cylinder, 150 hp is about as you would expect, not great but not "horrible".
Unless you are looking to drag race at every light. The turbo, on the other
hand, has no shortage of power.

If you don't like the retro look, the car will be "ugly". If you do, then
it will be fine. I don't know what the "click&clack" thing is, but with the
sales figures and the reviews these cars are getting, people obviously
disagree about them being "ugly".

was not retro enough? I found out that the roof line was supposed to
be straight across, not slanted. That would have been great for me!
Of course, now I drive a restored 1940 Chrysler Royal Coupe. I think
that they should design a PT Coupe based on the 46-48 Chrysler, one of
the best looking Chryslers ever made.

"What do you mean there's no movie?"

I love my 2003 PT Cruiser GT. The car is wonderfully engineered and
well thought out. Some people love the design, some hate it. I know
that all the cute girls at the office wanted a ride in it when we had a
lunch outing, so that should say something.

It has 35,000 miles on it and I've had 2 problems:

1) The oil filter housing had to be replaced. I strongly suspect this
was damaged by a mechanic at Walmart during an oil change. It was
replaced by Chrysler under warranty and has been fine ever since.

2) Air conditioner failed at about 34,000 miles. Replaced under
warranty.

I drive the car pretty hard, and it is VERY quick in acceleration (with
the 2.4L 215 HP turbo GT). You can see photos and my review here:

Forget the naysayers. I have an '05 high output turbo and love it. Poor
turning radius, lamentable gas mileage, yadda, yadda, but a real blast.
Should be some good deals available given the not too attractive '06s now on
the lots.

That's a good point Tom, I forgot to mention the "real blast" part.
I've had my PT GT for a year and a half and I frequently find myself
saying "oh, boy, I get to drive her again" as I start her up and hear
the rumble.

Also, when I catch a glimpse of her in the parking lot. She just looks
so sweet. When I see her in a row of cars the front grille is so
distinctive you just have to admire it.

Load her up with a load of lumber... no problem. 8' long lumber fits
nicely.
Take it home and unload it, then turn it around and take it for spin.
When everyone else is slowing down to climb a hill, just give it a
little gas and surge ahead.

Or if you prefer, take it to the track and blow the doors off of some
unsuspecting Mustang, Eclipse or even quite a few Corvette models.
