Theres also a handfull of national pt and mopar show winners, a few in the 11 second quarter mile club, and several featured in magazines

they are not all hideous!

all i did was ask what the one that was there looked like, not whether or not all of them are ugly in this area and what kinda of shorts they wear.

There may be some nice PT cruisers somewhere, but around here, they all have neons, spinning hubcaps, and furry interiors.

I concur.

They're not attacking PT Cruisers, Blasko... They're just stating a fact about most of them around here that we've all come to see.

You probably don't have an average age of 60 like the club here does either. I think I have some pics of them from one of the shows a while back. I'll have to see if I can find them...

*Edit - here's their web site. The worst ones aren't on the page. The first one (owned by Carol) is owned by our paper salesman. He has spent tons of money on that thing.

I am personally attacking pt cruisers with this statement-they're all fucking ugly grocery getters, old guys need more manly midlife crisis vehicles.

If you're modding a pt cruiser, please evaluate your life.

I second this motion, minus the 2.4L Turbo motor.
