A simple, flowing wood-grained graphic appears on all four doors, the quarter panels and liftgate. The graphic is a linear Medium Oak woodgrain framed with Light Ash surround moldings. Unlike aftermarket wood accent applications, this vehicle will have a full factory warranty. The Chrysler PT Cruiser "Woodie" option will be available on all Chrysler PT Cruiser models including base, Touring and Limited Edition. The manufacturer's suggested retail price for this option in Canada is $1,325.

FLAME DÉCOR OPTION
As a new factory option, customers can also order their 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser with subtle tone-on-tone "flames" rippling over the hood and front fenders. The coordinating "flames" will be available in a choice of four exterior colours. The vinyl flames are applied after vehicles exit the paint shop at Chrysler's Toluca Assembly Plant in Toluca, Mexico.

The colour choices are: fading orange-to-red flames are available for Inferno Red Tinted Pearl Coat PT Cruisers; fading blue to cranberry flames go with Deep Cranberry Pearl Coat vehicles; dark silver fades in to bright silver for Bright Silver Metallic vehicles; and Black PT Cruisers offer fading deep magenta to black flames highlighted with a blue border.

The new option will be available on all 2002 Chrysler PT Cruisers in Black, Bright silver Metallic, Inferno Red Tinted Pearl Coat and Deep Cranberry Tinted Pearl Coat. This option will have a manufacturer's retail price in Canada of $395.
