Are 2004 pt cruisers good cars? should I get one?

Question

can anyone tell me about them? like the mp gallon and most of all the saftey.

are they better than 2006 kia rios?

that was the last car I got (and first), great milage but crunched up like a coke can on a car wreck with a 15mph impact in the front, it's totalled, but my dad is buying me another car and I see a pt cruiser I like, would it be a better car?

Answer 1

GLAD YOUR STILL HERE LITTLE LADY JUST GET WHAT YOU LIKE I HAVENT HEARD ANYTHING BAD ABOUT THEM.

Answer 2

Okay from an automotive repair point of view, you will be wasting your money, these vehicles come into my shop regular and for the most part they are junk and that is saying it nice and as for the Kia, please stay away from something that is worst than the PT......

Answer 3

I would stay away from the pt cruisers. I had a friend that had one and she had a lot of problems out of it. Stick with Honda, Toyota, Nissan or Mazda.

Answer 4

It will not be as reliable as the Kia Rio, but you should be able to find one at a cheap price.

They do not hold their value at all and are extremely common, so I would recommend a low miles '02-'03.

If you would like to have a reliable car that has good gas mileage and is safe, stick with smaller Japenese cars.  The Scion xB is a bit larger than the PT, has better mileage and has unique looks like the PT.  You could also look a Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla or Mazda Protege5.  All will be more reliable and hold their value.
