PT Cruiser Fail :-(

fRostiE · 29 Jul 2009 at 20:36

Saw this while i was out and about last night... thought i'd snap a few pictures while i was there...

at a distance i wondered about its potential to be tasteful... upon closer inspection it appeared to me to be a bit OTT... does anyone even find these cars attractive when they roll off the production line? This guys just made it worse.

[edit] Actually - now i look at it on the net and not on my phone it doesnt look too bad, swear it was worse in the flesh! [/edit]

theres one round near me, draped in chrome.

all over the window surrounds, bumpers everywhere.

they seem to be quite popular for stupid mods.

Horrid cars why the owners spend the time and money tarting them up is beyond me.

Apparently the 2.0 Petrol produces 140 bhp, and the 2.4 Petrol produces 141 bhp.

:/

It is not "that" bad. I've seen a lot worse.

I know someone who had 600hp out of the 2.0, only 400 when it wasnt run on nitro meth mind

Girls love these.

I don't know why.

Well theres one near me that used to have flames down the side of it but the flames have now been replaced by Star Wars character graphics all over it. I really do need to get a pic of it for the spotted thread.

Sin_Chase · 29 Jul 2009 at 22:41

I've seen far worse, I just think they are inherently horrid cars to start anyway

lordrobs · 29 Jul 2009 at 22:44

I like the paint and graphics combo (not the text) and the wheels. The rest doesn't do much for me.

Cool, they should do a 6.0L V12 Twin turbo with 143bhp

Fido McNasty · 29 Jul 2009 at 22:58

They aren't that bad to look at. Some modified one's yes, but generally they're cool.

Clarkey · 29 Jul 2009 at 23:26

Cruisin'

Ohhhhhh yeah :cool:

:/

The PT Cruiser is probably the most disgusting looking car on the roads today, i'd rather drive a bright pink micra convertible.

Spuderoony · 30 Jul 2009 at 00:01

Audi/Kia-esque wheels. Looked just like the ones on my A3 I just sold.

Le_Petit_Lapin · 30 Jul 2009 at 00:08

have you ever seen inside them?

god they're vile.

GinG · 30 Jul 2009 at 07:49

That doesnt look too bad, I acctually think its tastefully done compared to others I have seen. I would go as far as saying I like it.

Wouldnt say it was fail by a long stretch, seen far worse that have chrome 14" rims etc etc. Stick on tat and chrome.

Chrome trim £9-99p from Lidl

They look like taxi's with funky colours basically.
