He bought it not me...but it is a ton of fun to drive. It's the SRT-4 with a turtle shell.

the turbo pt is not an srt-4 by any strecth. not to be rude but personally i hate that car. what do u drive?
 
Ok it should be working now. It's an autostick which is pretty fun to drive but no real 5 speed. It's a tuned down version of the SRT-4's turbo 2.4. I think the boost is tuned down just a bit but not sure. It handles well on the 17's but a little top heavy. My dads an old street rod guy so he has plans this summer to bring the rear end or the whole car down to give it a more level low look. And he's ordering 18in Boyd Coddington smoothies. He wants to two tone but we'll see about that....but after all the mods I think it's be one sweet ride.
 
Here's my current ride. Althought the black MSP left over at my local dealer is looking better everyday. It's not the neon obviously but its the same turbo motor and fun to drive. I said it looks like it's a big turtle and not a neon.

I like the p5 better, no offense , but maybe your dad should have gotten a different color , that white reminds of the Dick Tracey days Ice Cream Trucks

WE looked at the Mazda 6 first but he wasn't too interested in the $26K price tag. And he's always wanted a PT and he got the white for a base to two tone. I liked the bright blue but he has big plans for the white. So we'll see how it turns out this summer.
 
I like it. That is a nice white.

I also think that with a little bit of work, the PT's can look much better... try picturing a PT mixed with a Plymouth Prowler.
 
I saw a california edition PT with a chop top...it was a show car..and it was SWEET

I hope that makes it to production :D
 
Yeah I've seen that one too....pretty sweet. Me and my dad have a '53 Plymouth Suburban we're working on too. Huge A$$ wagon but after we chop, drop and fix it right it should be one sweet wagon too. For some reason we are on a wagon kick (if you can call the PT a wagon).
