A cultural icon of the early 2000s, the Chrysler PT Cruiser is defined by its 1930s-inspired retro styling. It's now an affordable entry into the collector market, where turbocharged GT models are the most desirable.
Typical sold price of a Chrysler PT Cruiser ranges from $1,227 to $17,601, based on 240 sales tracked on Hypercars. 26 currently for sale.
Chrysler launched the PT Cruiser for the 2001 model year, and its retro-themed design was an instant sensation. Penned by Bryan Nesbitt, its 1930s-inspired looks on a practical front-wheel-drive chassis resonated with a public tired of bland sedans. Over 1.35 million were sold during its 10-year run, making it a cultural icon of the early 2000s.
Collectors are now drawn to the PT Cruiser for its unique design and affordability. The most desirable versions are the turbocharged GT models, which offer a surprising 230 horsepower, and the various limited-run "Dream Cruiser" and "Street Cruiser" editions. The convertible, introduced for 2005, adds open-air fun and is a sought-after variant, especially in GT trim.
The market for PT Cruisers is very accessible, with an average sale price around $8,300. While many are simply inexpensive used cars, the top of the market shows that pristine, low-mileage examples can fetch up to $27,000. This suggests a growing appreciation for the best-preserved cars, making it a great time to find a future classic.
Based on 71 sales, prices range from $327 for project cars to $27,000 for pristine, low-mileage special editions.
