As a proud owner of an '01, (with the best color) "Shale Green" , I plan on keeping my collectors item for a long time.

Same here. I love the PT Rod, but a plum ragtop with a tan top sure would tempt me...

'01 with 17,000 miles on her. Had her since March of '01 . No plans to get rid of her at all....a Panel could tempt me but too many mods to justify a change. I am still enjoying the work involved in the mods but I am running out of things to do and still stay within a budget. Now....If I had unlimited resources...that is a different story.

Bought mine used a year ago, and I plan on keeping it indefinatly(sp?). I really like the 5 spd. I have no complaints about power, it'll get on the freeway as well as 90%of the cars out there and do it on regular gas.

Delivered in DEC 2000
4 window switches, no heated seats
Should've gotten it earlier but there was a delay on the 5 speed and there was NO WAY i would get another chrysler automatic.

I really have no intentions of getting rid of my '01. It currently has around 34K on it, is paid off and has a 7/75 warranty(no deduct). It has been totally trouble free and we both still love it.
My '02 may end up going before the '01 does...not sure. I still have a hankerin for a 5 speed 220 ho GT

I will keep my 2001 when we get the 2005 GT Convertible. I have been driving an 87 JEEP all winter and miss the Cruiser (wife got that one).Still waiting for the VIN # for the Convertible.I really like the 5 spd.(both) it'll get on the freeway as well as 90% of the cars out there.

Got my Inferno red TE 2 years ago this month; it still makes me smile when I see it ~ just like the first day. It had 20,000 miles then and 76,000 miles now..... still with 2 of the tires it had then as well as the same back brakes. I feel like I got a good one so why risk it? My kid brother has 2 Honda CRX's with over 300,000 miles on each of them. Our father was a fanatic about fluid changes so we keep that up too.

As they say in the NRA, "when they pry it from my cold dead fingers"!

I'll be driving my 01 until I have a job and can afford to buy my own car.
