24. Plymouth Prowler A quick time hop to the other end of the 20th century shows us that the 1990s weren’t short of silly designs for automobiles—but they were more willing to look back in time to find them. Inspired by the hot-rodding roadsters of yesteryear. However, this is less “American Graffitti” and more “An American Tail”. It seems that the geniuses at Plymouth forgot to make the Prowler a hot-rod, instead installing a pitifully underpowered 3.5 liter V6 pushing a mediocre 250 horsepower. Visually intriguing but lacking in performance, the Prowler was a rolling metaphor for the decade from which it spawned. |

This piece of trash pops up occasionally on the yahoo home page. It's the same stupid article. Obviously the author "doesn't get it"! |

Darn, I guess I was wrong when I first saw it and loved it and then bought 5 of them. I wish I would have read that article first instead of wasting all that money and time having FUN. |

All I can say is, Ed I’m sorry you’ve been so miserable. It makes me feel good knowing that I I have had the opportunity to share in you’re misery. For those who have never known the pain and misery of going to exciting places, meeting amazing people, and driving down the road with that s&!t eatin’ grin on their face, count you’re blessing and go on with your charmed lives. 😜 Jer. |

In the world of cookie-cutter car designs, the pressure is on to conform or be marginalized as bizarre. Be glad the Prowler made the list - this merely affirms that it doesn't fit the mundane mold. As for the horsepower arms-race that seems so important to the author of this list, have him show you a mass-produced car that has kept up! |
