2006 Chrysler PT Cruiser  Touring Convertible

       
                                                                   
 

 

 What could  possibly be more fun than a Turbo Touring Edition?....A  Convertible for sure!!

 

The design of the convertible is quite a bit different from  that of the sedan. For starters, it's a two-door rather than a  four-door. Close examination reveals that the windshield is  raked more radically and uses a different A-pillar design. With  the top up, the convertible looks like a custom chopped-top hot  rod. Pretty cool.
 


 

Drop the top and the "Chopped-Top Hot Rod"  turns into a different car. The convertible's high tail and  integrated sport bar is aerodynamically designed to minimize  wind noise. It's also one of the only true ragtops that's  affordable and has room for four.

 

Outside...the Black Clearcoat exterior really Shines! You  would have to look Very Close to find any issues. There is Not a  Scratch, Ding, or Dent worth mentioning. The color-coded  Moldings, Bumper covers, and Chrome Accents Look Great. Like New  Radials are mated to some awesome looking factory Chrome wheels,  that really finishes out the Look.

 


Well kept and maintained comes to mind when you drop in behind  the wheel. Autocheck Certified with no accidents and a score  that's Off The Chart.
 

 

Very SHARP indeed from every angle!!
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Inside ... more of the same thing you would expect from a  well kept Touring Edition. All interior appliques are in great  shape, as are the gauges, door panels, and dash. Light Tan Leather  seats are clean, soft, and issue-free. Cold a/c, power  windows and mirrors, and a great factory sound
system with CD, all add to the convenience and FUN this  convertible has to offer.
 

 

Power Top works at the touch of a button and I really like  the One-Touch window switch that operate all the windows at the  same time...up or down. So drop the top and have some FUN!
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mechanically....Just serviced and ready to go. This PT  Convertible is powered by Chrysler's 2.4 Liter Turbo-charged  engine that produces a respectable 180 Horsepower. Acceleration  is quite brisk and the handling is precise. All the car for lots  less than new and with only 79,000 miles, there is Plenty of  life and FUN left for the New Owner!
 

 

 We're offering an opportunity to own  this SHARP convertible for thousands less than New. You'll get  one Sharp ride, that's Fun to drive, all at a price that will  leave your neighbors wondering how you did it.

GM, Chrysler bailouts saved 2.6 million jobs

Tue, 10 Dec 2013


The Center for Automotive Research (CAR) has been studying the effects of the General Motors and Chrysler bailouts in 2009. Now that the US Treasury has officially sold off the rest of its stake in GM (and Chrysler has already paid back its loan), CAR has released its study on the effects of the bailout with this concluding note: "CAR is confident that in the years ahead, this peacetime intervention in the private sector by the US government will be seen as one of the most successful in US economic history."
Big words, for sure, but there's plenty of evidence to back up the claim. Bailing out GM alone saved 1.2-million jobs. If both GM and Chrysler hadn't been bailed out, US employment would have been reduced by 2.631-million jobs in 2009 and another 1.519-million jobs in 2010, according to the study. If both automakers were allowed to fail, personal income in the US would have decreased by $173.5 billion in 2009 and $110.9 billion in 2010. Instead, the study found that $284.4 billion of personal income was saved by the bailouts.

FCA-Renault merger talks: France wants job guarantees and Nissan on board

Tue, May 28 2019

PARIS — France will seek protection of local jobs and other guarantees in exchange for supporting a merger between carmakers Renault and Fiat Chrysler, its finance minister said on Tuesday, underscoring the challenges facing the plan. Renault Chairman Jean-Dominique Senard arrived in Japan to discuss the proposed tie-up with the French company's existing partner Nissan — another potential obstacle to the $35 billion-plus merger of equals. Renault and Italian-American rival Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) are in talks to tackle the costs of far-reaching technological and regulatory changes by creating the world's third-biggest automaker. Nissan found out about Renault's merger talks with Fiat Chrysler only days before they became public, four sources told Reuters, stoking fears at the Japanese carmaker that a deal could further weaken its position in a 20-year alliance with Renault. A deal between Renault and FCA would create a player ranked behind only Japan's Toyota and Germany's Volkswagen and target 5 billion euros ($5.6 billion) a year in savings. Some analysts, however, say the companies face a challenge to win over powerful stakeholders ranging from the French and Italian governments to trade unions and Nissan. Patrick Pelata, a former Renault chief operating officer, also criticized the deal plan for undervaluing Renault and threatening to overstretch its engineering resources. By valuing Renault at its market price, the all-share offer attributes a negative 6 billion euro value to Renault operations after deduction of its 43.4% stake in Nissan and 3.1% Daimler holding, Pelata told BFM radio. "That's hardly reasonable," he said. "And I think that shareholders, including the French state, are bound to take issue with this sooner or later." Pelata added: "FCA has big problem because they haven't invested for the future — they have no electric vehicle platform and they've done nothing in autonomous cars." French finance minister Bruno Le Maire told RTL radio on Tuesday that the plan was a good opportunity for both Renault and the European car industry, which has been struggling for years with overcapacity and subdued demand. France sets conditions Le Maire also said the French government would seek four guarantees in exchange for backing a deal that would reduce its 15% stake in Renault to 7.5% of the combined entity.

Chrysler's Hurricane engine detailed ahead of 2016 launch

Fri, 20 Sep 2013

We've been hearing distant rumblings about Chrysler's new Hurricane engine for some time now, but details have been hard to come by. Now, Automotive News is adding some specifics to the scuttlebutt, citing Chrysler documents. According to the industry publication, the Hurricane will blow onto the scene in 2016, but it's not an all-new engine. Rather, it will be rooted in the company's existing 2.0-liter four-cylinder Tigershark powerplant (shown above), albeit with "many new technologies to achieve excellent fuel economy."
It's not clear what sort of technologies Chrysler is referring to, but the Hurricane is expected to continue to use an aluminum block, and the finished product is expected to generate even better figures than the existing 2.0-liter's 160 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque (as found in the Dodge Dart). Automotive News notes that the updated 2.4-liter Tigershark debuting in the entry-level 2014 Jeep Cherokee has its basis in the 2.0-liter lump, but unlike the smaller engine, it's been fitted with MultiAir2 electrohydraulic variable valve timing to realize 184 hp and 171 lb-ft and greater efficiency.
Perhaps the Hurricane will incorporate the latter in its bag of tricks? Either way, we're hoping for a more generous torque curve than the what's in the current 2.0-liter Tigershark, which is something of a slug in the Dart - even for a base economy compact.
