Chrysler PT Cruiser with Sparco Demon Seats
The Chrysler PT Cruiser was launched by Chrysler as a retro-styled wagon in 2000 and as a convertible in 2005. Originally conceived as a Plymouth model, the PT Cruiser received the Chrysler nameplate on introduction - in anticipation of the 2001 discontinuation of the Plymouth brand. The PT Cruiser was designed by Bryan Nesbitt, who also styled the Chevrolet HHR.
The convertible ceased production December 21, 2007; with the last 2007 convertibles were marketed as 2008 models. Chrysler announced the discontinuation of the PT Cruiser, altogether, on January 12, 2009.
The name PT Cruiser includes the initial's PT, standing for and designating the car's platform as well as production code. The name also recalls the 1930s line of Plymouth Trucks known by the "PT" moniker.
The PT Cruiser is a front-wheel drive 5-passenger vehicle, classified as a truck in the U.S. by the NHTSA for CAFE fuel economy calculations but as a car by most other metrics. Chrysler specifically designed the PT Cruiser to fit the NHTSA criteria for a light truck in order to bring the average fuel efficiency of the company's light truck fleet into compliance with CAFE standards. A turbocharged GT model was introduced for the 2003 model year. A convertible was introduced for the 2005 model year.
If you are truly looking to style up your PT Cruiser, then good custom seats, such as the Demon Seat are a logical upgrade. There are many aftermarket companies out there that produce quality bucket racing seats for either road or track use. Prices can vary from a few hundred dollars to several thousand dollars for top of the line seats depending on your taste and the size of your bankroll.
Beside the bling effect of having some sweet looking Demon racing seats in your vehicle there are some performance benefits. Because racings seats are made out of lighter materials than your factory seats they reduce the overall weight of your vehicle which is always a positive for tuning.
Demon Racing Seats are universal for all vehicles; however, all Demon seats will need to latch to seats rail, which is car specific. Make sure there is a rail available for your vehicle, or otherwise you can customize your stock one to fit your aftermarket seats.
Sparco Seats, the maker of the popular Demon seats is one of the heavy hitters in the aftermarket seats industry. Many others try to match the quality of craftsmanship of the Demon seats but few succeed.
The Demon seat has a tubular KBA approved frame and upholstery in soft leather with two color styling. The Demon seat was constructed in a partnership with BMW and Sparco supplies these seats in the accessories section for the "John Cooper Works" Mini Cooper, though you can order these seats to fit most makes and models. Demon Seats are designed to be ergonomic. They provide a highly supported seat, featuring a tilt forward lever, molded high-density foam padding, micrometric precision backrest adjustment and adjustable lumbar support. Demon seats have been tested and approved to ECE 17 (Europe) and FMVSS 208 (USA) standards.
The support that Demon seats offer through the bends is truly amazing. Never again will you be in your passenger's seat when taking a long sweeping bend at speed. Even if your not heavily involved in the 'going fast' scene Demon seats provide the sort of comfort associated with a luxury car. No more back pains after the long journey to and from work.
