The original PT Cruiser offered little for buyers to get excited about with its odd retro design and even stranger color options like dark plum and electric blue. Its conversion to a soft top didn’t improve its aesthetics. If anything, a drop-top made it look more silly than it already did. As far as convertible cars go, the PT Cruiser was an all-around disappointment.
By 1955, the Chevrolet Corvette had been on the market for a few years, tearing up the roads like a pure sports car should.

It looked like an unsuccessful hybrid between a pickup truck, a sports utility vehicle (SUV), and a convertible car.
The 1950s were the era of the sports car, and Ford’s entry into that niche market, the 1955 Thunderbird convertible, hit all the marks.
