Chrysler PT Cruiser

Auburn Hills, Mich., Sep 1, 2007 - The Chrysler PT Cruiser continues to command attention around the world. Recognizing its success in the global marketplace, competitors have worked to copy the PT’s unique combination of “too-cool-to-categorize” heritage styling, versatile interior packaging and proven quality, but the 2008 Chrysler PT Cruiser demonstrates that its success can be imitated but never quite duplicated.
