This is an extremely well maintained, clean car, always driven by non smoking adults, without kids or pets. It has never been wrecked or abused

I am the second owner, the original owner having been a personal friend, from whom I purchased it 6 years ago.

The car has always been serviced by professionals, mainly at a Chrysler dealer by the original owner, or by me, the second owner, a professional auto tech.

They say about real estate that it's all about location, location, location. With cars, in my experience, it's not about the year the car was built, or even how many miles it has travelled. It's about condition, condition, condition. And condition is determined by three things: maintenance, maintenance, maintenance. Could you buy a car for less than my reserve? Yes, you could. Could you buy a car in this condition for less that will pass Maryland state inspection? I don't believe you could.

The exterior color is Steel Blue Pearlcoat. It has a tan cloth interior.

Features include:

Dual front air bags

Air conditioning
Power steering and brakes
Keyless Entry with 2 remotes and keys
Power door locks
Power windows, fronts with "auto down" feature
Power mirrors with defrosters and "fold in" feature for on street parking
Factory color keyed carpeted floor mats
Dual front vanity mirrors
Luggage compartment shelf/cover
Reclining/adjustable front seat backrests
Split folding rear seat back rest
Multiple possible seating arrangements for hauling/moving large objects (see photos)
AM//FM/CD/Cassette stereo sound system
Rear privacy glass, great for filtering out the heat of summer sun

I am not a dealer, but I am a professional auto tech. It has had routine service with an oil/filter change at least every 3000 miles, usually more frequently, never less.

Recent service history is as follows:

At 102,000 miles, I went over the car carefully and did the following:

Replaced timing belt, and tensioner bearing
Replaced water pump
Replaced serpentine belts and tensioner bearing
Replaced both front wheel hub bearings
Replaced both front lower suspension arm bushings
Replaced front sway bar bushings
Replaced rear shock absorbers
Installed zerk (grease) fittings in lower ball joints to permit periodic lubrication
Drained, flushed, refilled cooling system

Most recently I went over the car carefully and did the following to it to bring its maintenance up to date:

1. Installed new front brake pads

2. Overhauled both front brake calipers

3. Completed fresh engine oil and filter change, and a check of all fluid levels, tire pressures, etc.

4. Replaced spark plugs, checked engine compression (excellent), cleaned throttle body

5. Checked battery condition (good), cleaned/serviced terminals/clamps

6. Completed a general check of car under hood and underneath

7. Installed new wiper blades, front and rear

8. Installed four brand new tires

This car is equipped with the 5 speed manual transmission, which makes it fun to drive, and provides better fuel economy. If you have never driven a PT with the 5 speed, you will be surprised at the car's performance. It is smooth, peppy, and quiet, with a much more powerful feel than the automatic transmission version. If you can drive a stick, you will love this car. It has the easiest clutch and shifting operation of any car I have ever owned.

The car starts instantly, runs quietly, and drives smoothly.. The transmission shifts perfectly, the A/C system blows ice cold air, and the heater is strong.

It has no rattles, clunks, squeaks or other noises while underway.

Everything on the car works as it should, from the hand held remote lock fobs to the CD player/radio sound system.

The sale includes a factory cover in excellent condition.

With just over 120K and 2 careful owners in its past, this car has many miles and years of life ahead of it.

It has no significant dents but does have a few small dings and light surface scratches, nothing terrible, just things to be expected in a car a few years old. The most significant flaw in the exterior is a chip on the right side of the rear bumper. If you zoom the photo of the back of the car, and look carefully at the right side of the bumper, you will see it. It could probably be repaired, but I never considered it a serious flaw.

The interior is spotless.

I have worked on lots of cars over the years, and I think this car is every bit as good as the much sought after Asian cars, and at lower costs.. Popular Asian cars, such as Nissan, Honda, or Toyota are good, but equally true is that many domestics are underrated, and the PT Cruiser is one of those highly underrated models.

It is a very comfortable, spacious, solid, reliable car.

I have put it up for sale because I am now semi-retired, use it very little, and will be moving into less space.

If you are interested in the car, I encourage you to inspect it personally. It has a current, valid Maryland emissions inspection certificate, and if you live in Maryland and require a Maryland state safety inspection certificate, I would be happy to have the car inspected. If you live in Maryland, this is required prior to registering it as a new owner.

If you are looking for a nice, meticulously maintained car for an affordable price, this is an opportunity. I live just outside Washington, D.C., which is where the car is located. If you have any questions, email me and I will do my best to answer them. I have advertised the car for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early. I would ask that you bid only if you are serious about buying the car, and I thank you for your interest in reading my listing.

Chrysler reportedly showed its dealers an electric 300 replacement

Tue, Apr 25 2023

The Chrysler 300 is nearly ready to retire after almost 13 years in production. Details about its successor haven't been released, but a recent report claims that the Stellantis-owned brand privately showed some of its dealers an electric model that will take the sedan's torch. Citing anonymous dealer sources, enthusiast website Mopar Insiders wrote that the yet-unnamed model takes the form of a sedan with a fastback-like roof line. Some attendees drew a parallel between the EV and the prototype shown in renderings (pictured) in 2021; others pointed out its proportions and size are reminiscent of the Dodge Charger Daytona concept, which will reach production in the coming years. Nothing is official, but we wouldn't be surprised if the Charger Daytona spawns a Chrysler; the current-generation Charger shares its basic platform with the 300, after all, and building several vehicles on the same platform is a way for carmakers to reap economies of scale. One point worth noting is that Dodge executives have confirmed the architecture that will underpin the next Charger is compatible with the straight-six engine found in several Stellantis products. If it fits in the Dodge, it's reasonable to assume it fits in the Chrysler. Dodge hasn't announced plans to offer the Charger with the straight-six engine and neither has Chrysler; executives haven't revealed what comes after the 300, though company CEO Christine Fuell told Autoblog that there are "quite a bit of new products in our roadmap." The rumor echoes an earlier report that details an alleged 300 successor due out in 2026 with battery power, between 201 and 443 horsepower depending on the variant, and an 800-volt electrical architecture for faster charging. This hasn't been confirmed, however. As of writing, the only upcoming model that Chrysler has announced is a production version of the Airflow Vision we first saw as a very futuristic concept at CES 2020, as a more realistic design study at CES 2022, and with a black finish at the 2022 New York Auto Show. Regardless of whether the 300 gets replaced and what replaces it, at least Chrysler seemingly has a future — it was skating on perilously thin ice when Fiat-Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) and PSA Peugeot-Citroen merged to form Stellantis in 2021. Greg Migliore, Autoblog's editor-in-chief, argued in favor of keeping the brand alive, and dealers pleaded that letting the 97-year-old carmaker die wasn't an option.

Fiat's Marchionne ponders Chrysler going public again

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

Fiat boss Sergio Marchionne says there's a real possibility that its majority-owned Chrysler Group may eventually return to the ranks of publicly traded companies. According to Bloomberg, the Fiat and Chrysler CEO gives that a "50 percent chance" of happening, but he doesn't appear to favor that scenario: "My preference is to be one single company... we belong together."
Marchionne has seemingly been operating under the assumption that Fiat will eventually own all of Chrysler, working to buy up the shares it doesn't own and looking to buy out the retiree trust fund that it shares Chrysler ownership with. Certainly, Chrysler going independent again would be increasingly difficult, as the companies continue to blend products, technologies, facilities and staffing, a trend started immediately after the Italian automaker became custodian of the brand following Chrysler's bankruptcy in 2009.
Marchionne's remarks to the media came at Chrysler's Kokomo, Indiana plant, where he was on hand to announce a major investment at four facilities in the state to build eight- and nine-speed automatic transmissions.
