I bought a new 2006 PT Cruiser for my daughter to use while at college. This is not an economy car and does not pretend to be one. I get 23mpg on the highway. This car is styled and performs like a little roadster. Great on winding country roads and fast as a rocket. I only wish I would have gotton a manual transmission. Lot of interior room and plenty conmfortable. I own this car and a 2005 Pacifica. Why does Chrysler cease to produce its best and most origional products?
