Well having owned and driven my Prowler for 4 days now,figured id share some of the reactions Ive gotten so far.

RCMP officer used his lights just to pull me over to ask questions about the car.

Gas station attendent said, where do you work and how do i get a job there?

Little kid said to his mom walking by, look mommy hotwheels car.

Other vehicles pull out to pass me and just sit there looking at the car,kinda forgetting they were suppose to pass and pull back to the right, with oncoming traffic coming.

People take out thier camera phones while driving .

My nieghbor said, 2 seater,no trunk, not very practical,PERFECT !!!!

Thats all i remember,figured I share it, but everyone here with a Prowler knows exactly how it is, WOW.

Good luck with the new Kat. We all know the feeling. There was only one other car I ever owned that received as much attention.

Over 8 years and it is still going on every time you are out in the car. It is incredible that some folks still say, "that is the first one I have ever seen" but I still hear that every once in awhile.

Hey Alley Cat, not funny! lol. I didn't wait very long to scrape the nose. I believe that it was five minutes into my "test drive" at the dealership. It must be some kind of a Newbie record. Lets see, one pint of Prowler Red=$87.00, ending up disassembling half of the Prowler, shooting the entire nose panel etc., etc. Sure made installing Larry Lord's Wonderbar easy. Gee, I cant believe that I just admitted to all of this.

Larry, the only dumb thing you did was to fix it so quick. We usually figure to fix them every 3rd or 4th scrape. Rule of thumb when pulling up to parking block, pretend you are in the back seat of any other car and you won't pull in too far.

John, those Royal Canadian Mounted Police have lights on their horses now!

Da fun has just begun.

AC, I don't think they have curbs in the klondike Maybe scrape the nose up on a moose's knuckles would be fitting

It's funny, my son stated he does not like to ride in the cat car with top down because everyone keeps taking his picture. ( He is five )

Funny about your 5-year old. I thought we were the only ones with that issue. Our 6-year old daughter also doesn't like to ride in the Prowler because she thinks it is "embarrassing" how all these strangers come talk to us, wave at us, take pictures, ask questions, etc. On the other hand, our 3-year-old daughter loves all of the attention she gets in the Prowler, or as she calls it, “the silly car"...
