Just because they are not being made any more does not necessarily mean they should be worth more than what demand is. And from what I have seen, demand has taken somewhat of a downturn recently.

#36K doesn't really seem out of line pricewise, just gotta find someone that wants it bad enough....I figured it must have been priced at $45-50K

....remember, there were not many Kats made for a reason, they really didn't sell that well new, they don't fit everybodys needs....looks like your car has been for sale for 2 1/2 years....maybe post the ad more often or keep it updated, sometimes ads get worked to the bottom and people just don t research to find them....I check the board many times a day and really didn't remember the ad either...looks like a beauty, and there should be someone out there that wants it bad....

hope you luck, beautiful Kat....

...don't blame everyone that wants a deal, everybody wants the best price they can get(hey, a little lower $$$ and I might buy it myself)...

there no longer for sale prowler or ssr point is dealers suck. to try and buy it for 20k is ridiculous why even offer me something that stupid especially when im trying to buy a 160k car from them .I don't need to sell them just wanted some room for the next toy but not at that price. im a proud owner of my prowlers and always will be 99/02 I don't mind someone making a few bucks and I don't blame someone for wanting to get the best price im just saying don't be stupid about it

Unless your car was brand new (never titled) $36K might be just a little high right now. I know of a brand new one with full factory Warranty with 66 miles that brought that price. I have seen a lot of low mileage Prowlers in $32K to $35K range. I believe there was both a Woodward Prowler and Trailer on here not that long ago for $37K. With the gas situation as it is. It's not a good time selling a car that many consider just a toy. But if your in no hurry hold out for your price. Of course JMO

Ebay bids don't mean sh*t until the reserve is met. A lot of sellers get friends to shill bid up the price just to make it look like there is interest in the item, but it never reaches reserve met. Happens all the time and not just in Ebay Motors.
I have seen several cars run thru eBay three or four times before they are sold. I have bought three cars (one my Prowler) and one classic boat and two were on their second listing. The boat never reached it's reserve in three tries, and I bought it off line a week later, but the price did not go down by much.

I've been trying to sell a local's 2001 cat with 1700 miles for $36K. Had a firm offer of $34K in hand,,,,owner turned it down.

When gas prices go back down to $1.50 gallon,,,,the cat prices will come back up, lol.

I have seen several cars run thru eBay three or four times before they are sold. .

I've seen a silver in Arizona that is on its 10th listing. 7000 miles and they want 36K.

I have a bid at 28k on a silver in plano texas right now. it has 13 k miles and they state the reserve is 38995. i told them to let me know when they wake up.

I paid $39,900 for a silver 2001 Plymouth in April. It had 375 miles on it and was 10 miles from my house. I did not know about POA then. I was looking on AutoTrader and Cars.com. I have seen several listed for less with low milage since I purchased mine. If I had to sell it I would loose a lot. I would not even consider trading it in. Drive it into the dealer and bend over.

Gas prices down to $1.50. Now that is one of the best jokes posted here I have ever seen.

DP I really agree with most all the posts but I think the gist of your post was lost.
I think the fact, that someone would pay $20.500.00 for a wrecked piece of Crap that obviously needs a she-ite load of work and money, aside from the fact that junk will always be junk no matter what you do to it boggles the mind.

I've bought and sold cars for quite a few years now. I once had a Cobra Kit that I bought for 12.5k that had never been titled and had less than 300 miles on it. I sold it a month later for 22.5k. When I had it listed I received a call from a guy in Dallas who accused me of hurting everyone else who was trying to sell a Cobra. (Low price.) I made 10k in 30 day's.

That being said. I made a big chunk of change without waiting a long time because I bought it right.
BUT I bought my Prowler for an investment that I can drive every once and a while. (As I do.) I sold a 34 Ford roadster to get the Prowler because the Ford sat in the garage for two years. What a waste.

I realize I got my Prowler at a good price because the seller had bought a SSR and the wife told him the Prowler had to go.
I see people asking high prices for their Prowlers and I see people asking for average prices.
If you like the car or not, the fact remains that less than 12k were produced over the life of production. That in itself makes it collectable. Plus this is one of the most unique American production cars ever made.
I plan on holding on to mine for a long, long time and admire it's beauty and all the looks and complements it brings.
There will come a day when I'm over the hill and unable to enjoy it and it'll have to go. By that time the value should rival the early model Mopars. Supply and demand dictate that.

So when I see a price in the 40's I hope they get it.

Just my love for the car and the art of automobiles.
Rick
