What do people think of PT Cruisers, and owners of them?

Question 1
What do people think of PT Cruisers, and owners of them?...  Do females think a guy who owns them are worthless losers?
Do guys think that guys who own them are homos?

Or are they ok?

Answers
1)   I don't judge people by the car they drive, and no one who's smart does. They seem to mainly be driven by older guys for some reason, at least around here. - D

2)   PT Cruisers are decent cars, much better than the HHR. They even have a considerable aftermarket support. - Oli

3)   PT cruisers are a failed attempt to make a fairly modern car look classic. - Reed Osell

4)   Well, they're anemic and a tad out dated. Instant indication of being branded as a family guy. Married, kids, etc. Unless you plan on street rodding it? Then you still have the chance to be branded as a family man. But, a much Cooler family guy.

Guy/Gals pretty much brand one another the same way Regarding cars. Now a guy driving a new Beetle or one of those lil faddy squished looking euro cars? Ok, now you'd be branded a homo. - DFTR

5)   We rented one for a trip. Not a bad driver but really underpowered with the stock 4 cyl.

If you are looking to buy, get one with the Turbo 5 Speed - roadrunner426440

Question 2
Is it worthy to buy an used 2002 Chrysler sebring 92k miles for $3900?...  I am looking to buy an used car 2002 Chrysler Sebring with 92k miles, Please let me know if there are any major issues that can rise with this car?

Answers
1)   Nothing wrong with that car, but I think the price is a little high. Try to get the seller down under $3K and you will have a good deal. - Barry White

2)   They are a pretty reliable car but as far as the price that might be a little high. Check with Kelly Blue Book at KBB.com and input the cars info as far as price and reviews go and also try NADA.com as both will tell you expected price and reviews. And as always try to get a carfax report on the veichle. - ctrnavy

3)   Do not buy any Chrysler Sebring, especially with the 2.7L V6.

Go to www.carcomplaints.com and read the horror stories of the Sebring. Just punch "Chrysler Products". - Joe

4)   You should also consider that such a car may be expensive to insure. Check your insurance rates before buying one, for example here - carinsurance.deep-ice.com - Victor

5)   No. Not unless it is a cream puff that has been taken extremely good care of. Then maybe. Look it up in the Blue Book. - Jackolantern

Question 4
Is a '99 Chrysler Sebring for $2,995 worth it (110,000) miles worth it?...  New York, v6 engine. Jxi.
I know it depends on what the mechanics say and I plan to get it checked and all but I'm just wondering what everyone thinks about from the description.

Answers
1)   Not sure about the price as I have left US 4 years ago, but I would consider 3 points:

1 - Even new Chryslers are not considered standards of reliability, so I would be wary of a 99 one. Having said that I once bought a 5-year old Grand Cherokee with 62K miles that worked flawlessly for 2 years, so be really sure you have a good mechanic with you.

2 - Unless you're looking at the convertible Sebring, I would consider looking at Japanese models (even smaller ones) or even some Ford ones, as they are more reliable.

3 - Although a V6 is better than a four cylinder, facts is Chrysler V6s were never that potent so you might find a Jap four banger that works almost as well as this Sebring in terms of driving and power, especially the Hondas. - robertodemoraes

2)   I bought a 97 with on 90,000 on it and had lots of engine troubles. The engines are made by Mitsubishi and the parts are expensive. My car stopped sending spark to the plugs and a new distributor cost almost $400 bucks! That still never solved the problem. I was told the computer burned out and that was waaaaaaaaaay more than I wanted to spend. - tjsnfrd

3)   The car is decent, but I wouldn't pay that much for it. - Barry White

Question 5
2001 chrysler sebring 2.7 liter?...  on this car does the engine get removed with the transmission and does the engine have to be removed from the bottom of the car where on the internet will it show me

Answers
1)   You can remove the engine from above without removing the trans. Get a manual for more details. - C-Tech

2)   Don't know why you are having your engine removed, but being a 2001 Sebring with the 2.7 liter engine, I can guess why.

I suggest you go to www.carcomplaints.com and punch in Chrysler products. You will see that the 2001 Sebring is probably the worst car built, and that the 2.7 liter engine is a "defective" engine, with most complaints being engine failure due to oil sludge.

I would try and find another engine to drop in besides rebuilding the 2.7 liter. - Joe

3)   The engine and trans. were installed together from underneath bolted to the front cradle and front wheel assembly at the factory. You can remove the engine from the top separate from the trans. It should tell you how at O Raleigh auto repair on the net. - Jackolantern
