Sitting the the parking lot this morning at the college I go to...Salt Flat wheel covers, and functional Side Pipes. Buick hood vents, visor, flame backup light covers, chrome trim, ghetto scoop, and sweet decals.

Good point. I am not a fan of PT Cruisers in any shape or form, but this was just god awful.

Wow, and I thought some of the vehicles around here were bad. That's worse than I've seen around here, that's for sure.

There is a 4 door 80's Escort that is all riced out with dual fart cans, lime green paint, bodykit, green tint and a mural on the hood. Or the Pink Honda with hello kitty badges

Wow weird pt cruiser

Post by: CougarSE on August 29, 2007, 11:42:23 PM

I actually like the hood vents. I imagine the fender trim would look good without the rest of the stuff on the car. The hood vents and fender trim fit the look of a 50's styled car.

Kind of what the PT Cruiser is. Oh and in case anyone wants to know.. the PT Cruiser is alot nicer than an HHR.

Only as far as looks. Inside HHR's are way more comfortable, and have alot more room. A friend has a PT, and Ive driven HHRs at the dealership.

Did you just mention an Escort? How about this one?

I duno about that.. I work at a dealership and we have both. I've had seat time in both.. The HHR feels thrown together and has the same build quality as Geo. Little tiny instrument cluster, flat door panels and poor seats are no comparison to the PT Cruiser.

32V, I didn't mean any offense to that, I had no clue it was your brother's. I found it online, and thought it was something different, so I saved the pic.

EDIT: After looking at that second pic, does it have a 2 tone paint job on it, or am I seeing things?

no offense taken. i always thought his car was good for a laugh. :D you should have seen his corolla. have you ever seen a car with a lighted fish tank in it? LOL!

Title: I gotta have this
Post by: beaterjeep on August 30, 2007, 12:35:27 AM

You gotta be kidding? A lighted fish tank in the car? I thought that was just something they would do, and did, on Pimp My Ride. Although, if it's done right, I'd bet it would look pretty cool.

Title: I gotta have this
Post by: 32VFoxBird on August 30, 2007, 12:42:52 AM

it was a long cylinder tube with fake fish and some kind of fluid in it, i dont think it was water. he had stood up on the floorboard between the front seats, and went to the roof where the dome light would have been. im tellin ya', that car was built from supplies bought at Home Depot. the escort isnt as bad as the corolla........yet.

My fave thing about that PT is the mad phat tires on the rear, though it is a FWD car:toilet:

That is not a ricer. That is a modern take on a '50s style Rat Rod. Not that it's really any better than a ricer, it's just not a ricer.

A Rat Rod is made from parts you 'find', as in stuff off this car, no matter what make or model, stuff from the Junk yard.

This is a Rad Rod.

This is a Hot Rod, (which the PT is trying to be, just just ends up looking like rice).

The PT is the definition of "Auto Zone Special"
