I know you love your car but, when you get a chance, pull up a chair near the car and visually go over every line. Then walk around the car, slowly, and drink in its curves, its flowing beauty. This my friends is a living, breathing work of automotive art. Like you all did not know that!
And, underneath all this beauty is...more exoticness than most people even understand. The aluminum, the Indy style shocks, the A-arms. You know what I am talking about.
I do not care if the Prowlers value drops to $1. It is a real, honest to goodness work of art never to be seen again. Like a beautiful painting it needs to be studied, admired, desired, etc. If you have the ability to do it financially keep this rolling Art Form in your garage and you will have this historic automobile when, down the road, others will come to desire it also. And when the values start to climb and they offer you lots of $$$ you can smile and simply say, NO, this is irreplaceable. Its historic, beautiful, and worth more to me than mere paper money. Pass it on to your Heirs. They will love you for it!!

Fred, I will put you down in the "gets it" column. Some of the others still do not. Well written.

I'm new to this, but couldn't agree more. In fact my License Plate says so "ARTWORK" in motion.

Fred-

I've done the same thing.. I can't tell you how many times I've pulled up a chair after detailing her and just admiring the lines.. I'm not much for new cars. BMW, Benz, Porche, I just think cars are a waste of money. BUT, then I started looking into the Prowlers and knew I had to have one. HOw did I justify it? Well, the main selling point (besides it being art on wheels) was that you hardly ever see them on the road. I like to be different and my 00 Yellow does that for me.

Yesterday I was walking towards my kat parked in the Convention Center garage between a Silver Z06 Corvette and a Blue Viper with White stripes. It kind of caught me of guard as I was looking at the three cars together when I noticed two couples were standing between my car and the Viper and comments about the "cool" looks of the kat.

I couldn't have agreed more! After 48,000 miles it still brings a smile to my face as I get ready to get in.

I couldn't agree with these opinions more. I have a cool Prowler t-shirt that has a pretty neat "catch phrase" printed under the graphic that reads:

"Plymouth Prowler - You Either Get It Or You Don't"

The Prowler is truly a special car to look at, to own and to drive. I couldn't care less if other people like it or not, I like it and that's who I bought it for. Having other people appreciate it is just an added bonus!

I'm so thankful that Plymouth had the guts to build it in my lifetime!

That is the same way I feel. I will keep this car for many years to come. It will wind up in my will!!! Some day there will be another lucky Kat owner. Who noes it may be my son in/law. Thanks for putting it here.

I didnt buy the car to store it or sell it to make money. This machine is not the run of the mill everyday car. I bought it because it is so cool looking. My son will be the next one in line for the Prowler. Hes almost 11 years old and by the time he get close to my age, he will have a rolling classic.

fred2...were you even wearing pants while walking around your car???

My friend said the funniest thing to me when I first got the car....He said: " When I pass another Miata while driving mine, we honk and wave. I imagine when you pass another Prowler, you both pull over, pull down your trousers, and start jizzing all over each other's car" (Sorry for the crudeness, but it's the funniest comment I ever heard about the car!)

Got to admit, you see the car like I do. Don't see many around here on the road, and the comments come from all ages. Never thought I would be able to afford one and in 4 more years I truly will completely own one but for now I still get chills driving it. At 56 I still smile everytime I get behind the wheel and in the winter, I uncover it about every three weeks to start it up and just sit in it and enjoy.

I got an email from KY Speedway today about renting the track. I called the number and talked to the woman in charge of rentals. She said, "on your email you said you drove the track (last Saturday)." I told her I got there about 2:30 and she said she saw me as she was leaving for a wedding. "Your car is beautiful but I guess you hear that all the time". She seems like she is in favor of renting the track to us. Hope this works out.

The Prowler is the most awesome looking car on the road. I don't care what else is parked nearby it always gets the most attention. Sometimes I just open the door to the garage and make sure its still there and get one more look at it. I love washing & waxing it - it feels great. Every curve and line are perfect.

Great comments and thoughts everyone.
When life gets me down I know I can count on two things to make everthing right: 1. My little girl telling me she loves me. 2. Sitting my big butt in the seat of my Prowler.
I can be having a tough day at the office and I'll just get up, go home and get the Kat and my whole dmeanor changes.
I'll park my Kat, get to the door of wherever I'm going and stop and turn around and admire the rolling work of art.
It's all a state of mind.

I had a guy tell me that my Kat was the ugliest car he has ever seen!

I reminded him to turn around and look at what he drove up in, then asked him where was Granny 'cause his looked like the truck from the Beverly Hillbillies!

Some people will never get it. I'm glad I do and did!

When I told a co-worker that I bought a Prowler, he said "Oh, one of those UGLY looking ones"... my response...
"Ugly?? Have you looked in a mirror lately?"

Most awesome car on the road, bar none.

I've gotten ugly comments also... without exception so far, they have come from people who cannot even buy a good used Civic!

I was walking out of gym (yes Mean Gene I am going to win the bet) towards my car when I noticed a guy standing next to the kat in the parking lot. As I got closer he looked up and asked "Is this your car?" Of course I smiled and answered "yes". Then he said "I don't mean to offend you but it doesn't hold a candle to this one" and he pointed to my kat. I looked confued and told him I had said Yes - that was my car. He then informed me when he had asked the question originally he was talking about the car next to mine - a new Nisan 350Z !! That brought a evn bigger grin to my face.
