I've found 3 cars (Honda CRV, Jeep Liberty, and a Smart For2) all already set up to tow. The Honda and Jeep were set up for Blue Ox (what I have) and the Smart was set up with something else. All sold while I was making my mind up. I love my PT, but I am tiring of driving a 5 spd every day. Plus the PT isn't a good vehicle. Stuff breaks all the time and it certainly won't set your hair on fire. Right now it has a power steering leak.
I was told by our local base plate installer that being in a great situation at the time to buy a toad that would need no transmission pump as they are subject to problems as well as operator errors. I also didn't want to go with a tow dolly, but more and more I'm seeing the benefit of that direction.
