I HAVE DECIDED TO "BITE THE BULLET" AND SELL OFF A FEW OF MY CARS AND PURCHASE A BRAND NEW VEHICLE.  I ALSO HAVE A JEEP WRANGLER THAT I WILL BE PUTTING UP FOR SALE ON EBAY AS WELL.  THIS WAS A 3RD VEHICLE THAT I OWNED AND WAS USED AS A PROMOTIONAL VEHICLE FOR A BUSINESS I OWN.  IT HAD BEEN WRAPPED AND JUST DRIVEN AROUND LOCALLY.  I PURCHASED IT FROM A NAVY PERSON ON NOVEMBER 27, 2013 AND RECEIVED EXTENSIVE SERVICE RECORDS WITH IT.  ITS A 2003 CHRYSLER PT CRUISER GT TURBO WITH THE 2.4L ENGINE AND HAS 215 HORSEPOWER AND PRODUCES 245 lb-ft OF TORQUE AT A LOW 3,600 rpm, WITH MORE THAN 90 % OF PEAK TORQUE from 2300 to 5000 rpm. IT HAS A 4 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WITH THE AUTOSTICK OPTION.  AS FAR AS I CAN TELL, IT IS FULLY LOADED WITH EVERY AVAILABLE OPTION THAT CAME ON THE GT TURBO MODELS.  IT HAS 177,311 MILES (might get slightly higher as I still drive it) AND RUNS GREAT, AND LOOKS GREAT AND YOU WOULD NEVER KNOW IT HAS THE HIGH MILEAGE BY LOOKING AT IT, OR DRIVING IT.  ITS ELECTRIC BLUE, AND HAS BLACK LEATHER INTERIOR, TINTED WINDOWS, POWER MOON ROOF, CRUISE CONTROL, FACTORY CD PLAYER, HEATED FRONT SEATS, POWER EVERYTHING, A/C, TRACTION CONTROL, TURBO, 17 INCH CHROME RIMS WITH EXCELLENT TIRES.  THE BODY IS IN GREAT SHAPE WITH NO DENTS AND JUST HAS THE USUAL SCRATCHES THAT WOULD BE EXPECTED FROM DAY TO DAY DRIVING OF THIS YEAR AND MILEAGE.  THE PAINT LOOKS GREAT, AND I DID RUN A REPORT ON IT BEFORE I BOUGHT IT (i will provide it to the winner), AND IT CAME UP CLEAN WITH NO ISSUES.  THE LEATHER INTERIOR IS IN GREAT CONDITION WITH NO TEARS, ALL 4 HEADRESTS ARE INCLUDED. NO CRACKS IN THE DASH, ALL THE ORIGINAL MATS ARE THERE AS WELL.  THIS WOULD MAKE A GREAT FIRST CAR OR TOY CAR.

ALL GT TURBO MODELS COME WITH THE FOLLOWING OPTIONS TO SEPERATE IT FROM THE STANDARD PT CRUISER:

- Performance 4-wheel disc brakes and ABS with traction control
- 17" Blade CHROME 5-spoke cast aluminum wheels

FROM THE RECEIPTS THAT CAME WITH IT, IT WAS CLEAR IT HAD ALL ITS REGULAR MAINTENENCE DONE AND I WILL PROVIDE THOSE TO THE WINNER.  I ALSO DID A TON OF WORK TO THE CAR AS WELL AS PERFORMANCE UPGRADES WHEN I BOUGHT IT.  THIS IS A LIST OF THE PARTS I HAVE BOUGHT AND HAD INSTALLED, AND I WILL PROVIDE RECEIPTS FOR THIS WORK AS WELL:

NEW REAR HATCH LIFTGATE STRUTS $37.00

NEW GOODYEAR BLUE RADIATOR/HEATER HOSES $42.00

MOPAR SPARK PLUG WIRE SET $37.94

HEARTHROB 2.5" CAT-BACK DUAL EXHAUST SYSTEM $359.52

EIBACH PRO-KIT 2" LOWERING SPRINGS $200.00

ON 12/10/2013 I HAD MY MECHANIC INSTALL THE FOLLOWING PARTS: WIRES/PLUGS, OIL/OIL FILTER, VALVE COVER GASKET, EIBACH SPRINGS, DUAL EXHAUST SYSTEM, TIMING BELT KIT, A/C SYSTEM SERVICE, AND THE TOTAL BILL FOR THE LABOR ALONE WAS $1,104.92 (RECEIPT WILL BE PROVIDED).

ON 4/7/2014 I HAD THE FOLLOWING WORK PERFORMED: BRAND NEW FRONT LEFT & RIGHT CALIPERS WITH NEW HARDWARE, FRONT LEFT & RIGHT ROTORS, FRONT LEFT & RIGHT BRAKE PADS AND THE TOTAL BILL FOR PARTS/LABOR WAS $572.74 (RECEIPT WILL BE PROVIDED)

Some recent repairs that were performed prior to me buying the care were:

ON 6/29/2013 REPLACED ENGINE MOUNT & A/C SUCTION LINE.  THE TOTAL BILL WITH LABOR WAS $414.98 (receipt will be provided)

ON 8/03/2013 REPLACED 2 NEW FRONT TIRES, MOUNTING & BALANCE.  THE TOTAL BILL WITH LABOR WAS $235.23 (receipt will be provided)

THE CARS RUNS GREAT, HAS GREAT PICK-UP WITH THE TURBO AND STOPS PERFECT.  IT LOOKS GOOD WITH THE LOWERED STANCE, THE SPRINGS GIVE IT A NICE TOUGH CLEAN LOOK, AND THE DUAL EXHAUST LOOKS GREAT FROM THE REAR WITH A NICE LITTLE RUMBLE.  I HAVE NOT HAD ANY ISSUES WITH THE CAR AND DRIVE IT WITH MY WIFE AND KIDS WITH NO CONCERNS.  I HAVE NOT HAD IT VERY LONG SO I CAN ONLY GIVE YOU DETAILS OF THE HISTORY WHILE I HAVE OWNED IT, BUT FROM LOOKING AT ALL THE PRIOR RECEIPTS IT WAS WELL TAKEN CARE OF. 

IN MY OPINION, THE ONLY THING IT MIGHT POSSIBLY NEED IS MAYBE SHOCKS AT SOME POINT.  THEY SEEM FINE, BUT ALL OF MY OTHER VEHICLES HAVE LIFT KITS IN THEM AND THIS IS THE FIRST CAR I HAVE PUT LOWERING SPRINGS IN YEARS, SO IM NOT USED TO BEING SO LOW TO THE GROUND, SO ITS HARD TO TELL.

DUE TO THE AGE AND MILEAGE, IT WILL BE SOLD IN AS/IS CONDITION WITH NO WARRANTY OFFERED.  IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME AND I WILL GET RIGHT BACK TO YOU.  IF YOU ARE LOCAL, YOU ARE MORE THAN WELCOME TO COME BY AND SEE IT AND BRING A MECHANIC IF YOU WOULD LIKE.  I HAVE PERFECT FEEDBACK ON EBAY AND HAVE SOLD NUMEROUS CARS OF MINE WITH NO TROUBLE, SO I ENCOURAGE YOU TO CONTACT ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS, BIG OR SMALL.

THE $500.00 NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT IS DUE AT CLOSE OF AUCTION VIA PAYPAL WITH THE REMAINING BALANCE DUE WITHIN 48 HOURS UNLESS OTHER ARRANGEMENTS ARE MADE.

I WILL NOT SHIP THE VEHICLE, BUT WILL ASSIST THE BUYER IN ANY WAY I CAN.

Fiat-Chrysler CEO: Please Don't Buy The Fiat 500e

Wed, May 21 2014

Fiat-Chrysler's CEO had a strange request for electric vehicle shoppers on Wednesday: don't buy the all-electric Fiat 500e. While CEO Sergio Marchionne was speaking at a conference in Washington, he told the crowd he's tired of Chrysler-Fiat losing money, The Detroit News reported. "I hope you don't buy it [the 500e] because every time I sell one it costs me $14,000," he said to the audience at the Brookings Institution. "I'm honest enough to tell you that." Marchionne said federal and state fuel efficiency mandates are forcing the automaker to build unprofitable cars, according to Reuters. A normal Fiat 500 starts at $16,195, and the 500e starts at $32,650, before federal and state tax credits. There are no sales data to indicate how the 500e is performing.

Fiat Chrysler and PSA boards sign off on merger

Tue, Dec 17 2019

MILAN — The boards of French carmaker PSA, the owner of Peugeot, and Fiat Chrysler in separate meetings on Tuesday approved a binding agreement for a $50 billion merger, sources said. The two midsized carmakers announced plans six weeks ago for a tie-up to create the world's No. 4 carmaker and reshape the global industry. A merger is seen helping them deal with big challenges in the industry, including a global downturn in demand and the need to develop costly cleaner cars to meet looming anti-pollution rules. Both companies declined to comment. A source close to FCA had said earlier the two companies could formally announce the agreement early on Wednesday, followed by a conference call to explain further details later in the day. China's Dongfeng Motor Group, which now has a 12.2% equity stake in PSA, will have a reduced stake of around 4.5% in the merged group, two sources said, in a move that could help make regulatory approval easier. According to the deal approved by PSA's board on Tuesday, FCA's robot unit, Comau, will remain within the combined group rather than be spun off as was originally planned in October, the sources said. The new group will evaluate how to extract value from Comau. Ahead of the meetings, entities representing the Peugeot family, Etablissements Peugeot Freres (EPF) and FFP, unanimously approved a proposed memorandum of understanding for the planned merger, a source familiar with the situation said. FCA and PSA are expected to finalise a deal by the end of 2020 to create a group with 8.7 million annual vehicle sales, a source said. That would put it fourth globally behind Volkswagen AG, Toyota and the Renault-Nissan alliance. It was only six months ago that FCA abandoned merger talks with PSA's French rival Renault. FCA would gain access to PSA's more modern vehicle platforms, helping it meet tough new emissions rules, while Europe-focused PSA would benefit from FCA's profitable U.S. business featuring brands such as Ram and Jeep. However, the deal could still face close regulatory scrutiny, while governments in Rome, Paris and unions are all likely to be wary about potential job losses from a combined workforce of around 400,000. PSA's Carlos Tavares will be chief executive and FCA's John Elkann — the scion of Italy's Agnelli family, which controls FCA through their holding company Exor — chairman of the combined company.

Court ruling to delay Fiat's Chrysler buyout?

Thu, 01 Aug 2013

We've already reported on the attempts of Fiat to purchase the remaining 41.5-percent stake in Chrysler, currently owned by the United Auto Workers' VEBA healthcare trust. And while the issues still aren't resolved, Fiat has received both a bit of good news and a bit of bad news from a Delaware judge.
The good news is that the court ruled in favor on two key arguments of Fiat's, relating to what is a fair price for the Chrysler shares. The rulings essentially slash half a billion dollars off the price of the 54,000 shares owned by VEBA, according to a report from Reuters.
The bad news is that this makes the UAW an even more difficult opponent in negotiations. Its VEBA fund is meant to cover ever escalating retiree healthcare costs, so naturally, the UAW wants to get as much money as possible. Losing a big chunk of cash isn't likely to make the union more cooperative.
