There is no doubt the the Woodward Dream Cruise was an outstanding success by all estimates. Thursdays party at Chrysler Headquarters as an intregal part of that success.

Please post your thoughts here for them to see. In a few days time this thread will be printed and delivered to these people who worked so hard in our behalf.

The party at the Museum on Thursday night was absolutely amazing. Words cannot describe how much we enjoyed it. Linda and I have attended many many events since we purchased our Prowler in April of 1999. However there are certain ones that stand out above the others. This event will be among our top two. The other was the tribute we did for the CAAP employees in February 2002 at the end of Prowler production. While there was not one aspect of the 10th Anniversary Party that we did not thoroughly enjoy. Meeting the members of team Prowler and having many of you sign our car was the highlight of the evening for me.
For us the Prowler has not been just a car. It has been a life changing experience. I have owned Hot Rods, Muscle Cars and Motorcycles. None of them has brought us so much joy and fun as owning the Prowler. Unless unforeseen circumstances dictate otherwise we will never part with our Prowler. In fact some day I hope to own a second one.
As a teenager and well into my thirties I only owned Mopars. Then I strayed. Now I am back and it's all Mopar again. And my return started with the Prowler.
We currently own the following.

1999 Prowler
2004 Durango
2005 PT Dream Cruiser Convertible

Thank You
Rich and Linda Ware

I'm getting older. I had my mid life crisis. Thanks to all of you that designed & built the Prowler. It was a critical time in my life. It was either Heels or Wheels.

Thank You for saving my Marriage. I chose Wheels!

The 10th Anniversary Party was outstanding. Everything was done with a touch of class. It was very interesting talking to some of the design team members.
We appreciate the drinking glasses with the diff. color logos on them along with the hat pins.
I am looking forward to seeing the picture of all the Prowlers in the lot.
We attended the CAAP closing and the Black Tee party about 5 years ago. We appreciate all the effort that went into the planning and pulling off this fabulous event. A very nice touch for a corporation to give back so much to the customers.
We currently own two Prowlers and have owned 4 overall.
I can't believe folks are modifying a work of art. I believe in keeping the Prowler totally stock. Perfect.
Thank you very much.

The 10th anniversary Prowler Party was indeed a life experience. Having owned 3 and looking for another so 2 are in the stable I can only add that this car defined an affordable platform for car nuts to expose their individual design ideas. The "mods" as we call them, except Ed, are fun to make and appreciated by the classic car community. Of the 32 Chryselr products I have owned this is the JEWEL.
Thanks for all the effort and attention you put into the party. Just meeting and talking to the Team members was fantastic. Great PR with the Prowler owners and wanna-bees. Our sincerest appreciation to the Corporation and it's associates. Jim & Denise

CLASS ACT BY ALL INVOLVED!!!!! This was the 1st MAJOR event Sharon & I have attended and it was FANTASTIC!!! Glad we listened to the Prowler owners on this site. Well worth the 12 hr drive and the additional 1489 miles on our Prowler, after all that's what they were built for, correct? Never thought I would get that close to the Prowler concept car, I remember the crowds and the rotating platform from the shows. Many thanks to all for your individual efforts. Great car and even greater friends! Charlie.

The celebration that took place that Thursday night was truly fantastic!!!

I cannot thank all of you enough for creating such a truly remarkable automobile. Nothing compares to the Prowler and I truly believe that nothing ever will.

When I first heard of this event from CJ and a few of the POA members I knew then...I just had to attend this event with my 97 kat. Trailer it from New Hampshire...no way!!!

What a birthday party!!!

Thanks again to everyone involved.

Sometime before 1996 I took my son to a car show in Washington, DC. I remember seeing the Prowler concept on display and we both couldn't take our eyes off it. I said to myself I could never own something like that.

In 1996 I moved to Africa working for the federal government. After Africa, I moved to to Kathmanadu Nepal. I didn't return to live in the USA until 2003. The production of the Prowler came and went while I was gone, but I never forget that car. Finally, upon my return I was able to buy my Prowler.

You folks conceptualized, engineered, and produced a masterpiece! To meet some you at the Prowler party was a wonderful experience. I don't know how often a multi-national corporation stops to throw a party with a couple hundred of its customers, but I bet it doesn't happen very often. You all are a class act.

As we departed Auburn Hills I knew Chrysler is going to be just fine because of the people who work there at every level.

Thanks so much for the smiles my Prowler gives me every day... Even now, I still get giddy each and every time I get behind the wheel, and that's what its all about in my book! ORANGE RULES!!!

Meeting and discussing the Prowler and it's travels from concept to reality with "Team Prowler" was the highlight of my trip. I too could not believe the hospitality shown to us. Hooking up with Herb Helbig and some of the folks who were on Team Prowler and are now with SRT was fantastic. I could have spoken to Craig Love all evening. What a fascinating story that I bet most Prowler owners never even knew.... what it really took to get the car from concept to reality.... What a blast I had listening to their stories !

Having the Show car out along side of a pre-production car was too cool.... The Photo shoot, the Prowler Banner, the Prowler Blow up car in front, the Live Music, the cold beer and the wonderfully nice people serving it... The food.... I could go on and on.

I remember gawking at the Prowler when it first came out and wondering why my favorite brand, Pontiac, couldn't produce a car like that. So I literally snuck out one day, put the deal together and Drove home with a New Prowler. I sold my Bonneville and picked up a Chrysler 300M, my wife now drives a Grand Caravan and my daughter has a Cirrus. And I have purchased two Vipers..... all because of the Prowler and the great work you folks did on it.... Every vehicle I now own with the exception of my 1967 Firebird is a Chrysler Product. Thank you....

Most Sincerely,

John Buehrle

I seen the pictures of the concept and then tried to go and see it at a few shows when it 1st was on the road as a show car.

I spoke to many people about the car and at the 500 princes ball in 96 I spoke with a Viper team member and got more info on the car. With the car scheduled to be built my wife and I had to have one. I put a deposit to reverse the right to buy the 2nd Prowler the dealer got in Feb of 96.

July of 98 I finally bought my car. It has been a life changing experience. I have met so many people from all over the world. We have been to the CAAP facility many times and had the opportunity to meet with many of the TEAM PROWLER members, they have always been friendly and helpful.

Thursday night at the museum was no different, this was for them as much as the owners, but they were there helping to make the event a SPECIAL NIGHT that we will remember forever.

The effort that went into making this happen along with the money that was approved even with some creative measures to make sure it was a 1st class event

Thank you all for making the Prowler the special vehicle it is and making it be what has brought so many of us together. I feel that the Prowler owners are like family, willing to help our own in a very friendly manner.

It is the Car that brought us together, but it is the people that are SPECIAL.

THANK YOU FOR ALL THE EFFORT TO MAKE THIS WONDERFUL CAR AND GIVE US THE BEST PARTY EVER FOR THE PROWLER OWNERS

To all the hard working folks who brought the Prowler to reality: Thank you for creating and producing a vehicle which captures the true essence of the All American Hot Rod in a modern, safe, efficient, luxurious package. No other OEM could or would have been able to pull off this ultimate, drop dead gorgeous, two seat convertible.

Thanks to the Chrysler Team that helped plan and sponsor the 10th Annual Prowler Party. We've enjoyed the hospitality from the 1st CAAP I (April 1999), 2nd CAAP II (October 1999), the Black Tee party and the End of Prowler Production get together in Feb. 2002. However, the evening was terrific sharing the Prowler experience with members from the Original Prowler Team along with 180 Prowlers and 300+ members of our Prowler Owners Family...

My two License Plates sum it up...

The entire Woodward experience was so special this year and the two highlights were the Chrysler hosted event, getting to talk with members of the team that brought my Kat to fruition, seeing the show car up close and just the whole event at W.P.C. museum was spectacular. Thank you all for giving us our "dream" car! The second was the exit from 13 mile. Unreal! Psychedelic! Thanks Prowler guys and gals. We cherish them and have never ending smiles!

When the Prowler first appeared on the scene back in the 90's I thought "No way, they can't actually build this thing!". A few years later it was showing up on the dealers showroom floor. I sat in one at the dealer in 2000 and just thought it was so cool but due to dealer markups was out of reach. Three years later and thanks to ebay I was sitting in my living room and saw the car I wanted. It wasn't long after I clicked on "Buy It Now". The rest is history. Meeting great people from all over, attending awesome events and just having a blast every time I get in the car.

THANKS TEAM PROWLER!!!

What a great time at the museum Thursday night. From the photo shoot to the food & drink to the goody bag, it just couldn't be beat! Truly a once in a lifetime experience.

We'd just like to take this time to thank everyone involved with the Prowler 10th Anniversary party for a totally awesome experience. The weather was perfect, the hospitality shown by the Chrysler Team members was extremely welcoming, all in all a very enjoyable evening and definitley one night never to be forgotten. It was nice to be able to talk to the team members who put together such a wonderful vehicle. Nice to see that they love it as much as we all do. Thanks again for a terrific party. Thanks
