New 2007 Chrysler PT Street Cruiser Pacific Coast Highway Edition

Chrysler kicked off the annual Woodward Dream Cruise, making a huge splash with the introduction of the new 2007 Chrysler PT Street Cruiser Pacific Coast Highway Edition -- a special-edition PT Cruiser dedicated to one of the most picturesque driving routes in the United States, the Pacific Coast Highway. Announced in conjunction with Detroit's famed Woodward Dream Cruise, the Pacific Coast Highway Edition will be available later this summer as a limited-production version of the 2007 Chrysler PT Cruiser.

"This Chrysler PT Cruiser Street Cruiser Pacific Coast Highway Edition celebrates another great American road, a tradition we started with our PT Dream Cruiser series and continued with last year's Route 66 Edition," said David Rooney, Director - Chrysler Marketing and Global Communications. "The Chrysler PT Cruiser is the perfect vehicle for factory customization because it celebrates the journey, as well as the destination. With more than 1 million PT Cruisers sold since its introduction, hundreds of thousands of PT enthusiasts are enjoying the journey with us."

The 2007 Chrysler PT Pacific Coast Highway Edition is powered by a fuel-efficient 2.4-liter naturally aspirated engine that produces 150 horsepower (112 kW) and 165 lb.-ft. (220 N*m) of torque coupled with either a five-speed manual transaxle or a four-speed automatic. With the five-speed manual, this engine achieves 29 mpg on the highway, which is perfect for long cruises down the Pacific coast.

The U.S. Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for the 2007 Chrysler PT Street Cruiser Pacific Coast Highway Edition will be $20,735 for the manual transaxle version and $21,570 for the automatic transaxle model. Both prices include a $640 destination charge.
