"The PT Cruiser is very popular in Canada too," Fleet said. For example, Canadian Cruiser owners started the "Cruise the Falls" meet in Niagara. The recent third annual event drew 615 vehicles, including owners from as far away as California.

"Cruise the Falls started with a handful of guys with PT Cruisers who got together and thought of where they could meet and they decided to do it in Niagara Falls," Fleet said. "And it just snowballed from a couple hundred PT Cruisers up to where it is today."

The beauty of the PT Cruiser is more than just its looks, Fleet said. Its retro styling is cool, but it comes with a high degree of utility that is cherished in the Canadian market. And, it's an alternative to the short wheel base minivan."
