Well, I did it. Four weeks ago I flew to Ohio to buy a 2000 Yellow with 4,300 miles on it. I am the proudest Kat owner their is. I mean, I never thought I would get one. But, She's all mine! I could never have been prepared for all the attention I'm getting. WOW!! I will give two examples. 1) When I was on my way to MN to show my friends and family before I head home to Tampa, FL. I stopped at a way side rest to take a nap with the top up and windows down. I awoke 15 mins later with 4 people checking out my Kat. lol.... So, I step out of my gleaming Yellow Kat and conversed with them all for about 20 mins. 2) I was at a stop light and a car coming the other way stopped (stopping traffic) and asked what is that???? I said "aaawwwwwesome" while nodding my head. But I did tell him it is a Prowler. He went WOW and drove away. Thats just a few of the many stories in only 4 weeks. I did put on 4,200 miles on my Kat and had a blast every mile, top up or down, its an experience either way! The reason I feel I'm the proudest owner is... I dont fit your typical income level of Kat owners. I'm unemployed computer guy. (because I just moved to Tampa) But I had the money to buy and I said why not? Its a beatiful car and I want it. lol I love this website and hope to get to know other Kat owners in the Tampa area. Thanks for listening to my stories. |

As another recent new member and new owner, welcome! You've GOT to spend some time on the discussion boards to learn the ins and outs of these cars - they have a lot of quirks. And don't worry about your income level - buying a Prowler is the equivalent of taking a vow of eternal poverty, anyway. Wait until you start hearing about "The Mods" that are available... Check out advice on this board re: (1) center (wheel) caps, (2) how to avoid damaging your convertible top, and (3) the absolute necessity of installing mud flaps on the front fenders. It's for real!!! Congratulations. |

Dead End Don: Thanks! They mods I do have are front and rear flaps, tinted windows, and I polished the rear part of the frame. More to come.. I will have to read up about the top... I think I would cry if I ended up getting a hole in it. Laddie: Thank you! Prowlerfreak: Good luck on getting your Kat. You wont regret it! Cisco is the way to go... But I'm going for my MCP, MCSE and MCDBA. |

Welcome to both of the new guys. Put ceramic brake pads on the front ONLY. About $ 75 but it is worth that much just in time saved. Where in Ohio did you buy it? |

Hey, we are not all rich at least in the monitary field. I'm also in IT and believe it or not I already own 1/3 of my Kat. In just 42 more payments and its all mine, but I drive it now as if it was all mine. Work on IBM AS/400 and NT Networks. Love the work and the variety. Then I keep thinking only 9 more years to work then I can find a job not so stressful, but again I handle the stress quite well. Glad you like the Kat, whenever I drive mine it is like I'm a totally different person, all similes!! |
