We own two of the worst cars!! (2002 Prowler and 1972 Avanti)
The perspective is from the market share position of the vehicles. Too bad they didn't offer a larger discussion on the up-side of these cars.
Grand Touring Louise - any luck with the pictures of the Fiat Prowler?? (as seen at Ogunquit)

I've owned a few of those cars myself, two of them were Black 1965, 1966, Studebaker Wagonaire Daytona with supercharged 289 ci motor, 4 speed tranny, loaded with every bell & whistle you could imagine.

I bought them both from a funeral home in 1969, I turned one of the in to a Harley Biker hauler for my business, the other one I kept for a family car for years because it had air conditioning, like a lot of old cars they were way ahead of their time, recently GMC mimicked it with their Envoy XUV

Earl I had Pics of the Fiat Prowler but some how deleted the file they were in or I would have posted them on the New Hampshire Maine Cruise Post

Actually, it says the worst "selling" cars....Not the worst cars...

The idiot failed to mention that the Prowler was virtually hand built and never intended to be mass produced.

The AMC Pacer and Gremlin weren't in there,,,along with the Pontiac Aztec?

AMX I wouldn't think should be on that list either,,along with the Prowler.

"This article is just another example of journalistic crap." I could not have said it any better that that.

Obviously I don't know what I am doing. I can send the email to someone if they will post the link. I don't know how to do that.

Journalism with a preset agenda is what we have here. Too bad that they don't have a clue on their subject matter. Avanti, AMX, and Blackwood were all nice rides. I still have a Reatta and it is one of my all time favorites.

Studebaker Wagonaire, now there's something you don't see everyday or at all for that matter.

What is so true and JUMPS OUT in the article quote below is THE VERY LAST STATEMENT/SENTENCE!! Mustang......Camaro.....Challenger.....Thanks to the Prowler, you're welcome.....without the Prowler, you would not have been revamped looking as good as you do today!! I love talking to cars...lol!


"Plymouth Prowler
ChryslerSales: 8,100
(1999 through 2002)

It's fair to say that Chrysler Corp. never intended to set sales records with the Plymouth Prowler, but the model didn't achieve its main goal either: breathing life back into a dying brand. It even suffered the ignominious fate of being re-badged as a Chrysler after Plymouth's demise. "Still, its fans love its looks and technology, and it's credited with igniting the retro craze of the last decade".

The article is worst selling cars so that makes it a little different. This criteria matches up assembly line cars produced at 800 per day against our hand built car at 7-14 per day. go figure.

I like the way you think Mickey.
100% sold, should be at the top of the list.

Worst selling cars? Didn't they all sell? (Except the few the dealers don't want to sell.) How many other cars made have all sold?
