Glenn | Last December I posted a list of Prowlers that were for sale, along with the mileage, and asking prices. I do this research periodically to get an idea of the marketplace. Several members expressed interest, so here is an updated list for Aug. 2017: Sorted in order of asking price low to high.... Average asking price Dec 2016: $34,121 Average Mileage of cars for sale Dec 2016: 13,321 Ave asking price Aug 2017: $31,652 Av Mileage of cars August 2017 16,658

quincy | Thanks for putting this list together! Not so much from a sales stand point, but from an insurance stand point. Many do not have 'agreed to value' from their insurance companies and this list would help them in their fight. Good post! Interesting to see so many for sale considering less than 12,000 were built.This message has been edited by quincy on 08-26-2017 at 12:31 PM |
ed monahan | Thanks for posting. That is a LOT of work to get all that info. NO Gold, NO Candy. 127 total. 25 Black, 23 Silver, 23 Red, 21 Purple, 18 yellow, 10 Orange, 3 Mulholland, 3 Woodward and 1 Black Tie. This message has been edited by ed monahan on 08-26-2017 at 04:24 PM |
Nick C | 1 Orange one in west chicago il 30k miles for 30k. 1 in Indiana 7k miles for 30k. Looked at both a few months ago |
Nick C | Yellow 99 for 21k in ohio |
401KAT | A lot of low miles cars in that 29k range......buy and drive em!!!!.....jim |
garysss | Cool list. Thanks for posting. |
padroo | I always wondered what month the price peaks and what month is the lowest or does it really matter. Here we are at the end of August and anyone up north is looking at the end of the convertible season. Kind of like having a boat. lol |

Agree.....some one stated years ago that 'fall' starts the time of year people in the deep south / Fla. start looking for convertibles. The blazing hot weather is about to pass and its top down time. I've got a few more months left of top down driving in Tennessee. |
Glenn | It appears that low mileage (less than 8,000) has a real effect on asking price. Other factors, such as Year, or Color, do not seem to influence as much. You can clearly see that the Silver in Ohio with only 2,400 miles appears to be a bargain at $28,500..(well below the curve) |
silverkat | Lot of work went into that list. Hey there Nick C what color did you get? |
RPL | Nice analysis! Thanks for sharing both charts! |

Nice graph! That took a little work as well! Thank you!

CCJ | The black one in CN for $22k. I am having a hard time finding that one. With 20677 miles and it's a 2000 MY. What a bargain |
CCJ | Found the actual dealer selling it. The price they're asking is not the price in the OP... Interesting: http://www.courtesyfordct.com/used/Plymouth/2000-Plymouth-Prowler-f08e38360a0e0ae7421d8d5c0ece4fe7.htm?searchDepth=1:1 |
bcsnave | CCJ The asking price isn't typically the selling price... Asking $26k talk them down to $24k...where else are you going to get a relatively low mileage vehicle that looks that cool for $24k...? |
NBTRYAN | I have a Woodward edition number 111 (13,700 miles). Does anyone have any idea of the market for that? |

Bought mine in May 16 ....9600 miles ...29k...love it....jim |
drbutton | Looks like the prices are still going down, very slowly. I got mine with 27k miles for $22k over 3 years ago. Seems like I did well. Now with 32k miles, but I am NOT selling! |
Glenn | That time of year again. I have updated the asking price data for Dec 2018... Sorted by mileage Low to High:
Dec 2018 Average price: $28,836 Average miles: 18,596 Aug 2017 Average price: $31,689 Average miles: 16,650 Dec 2016 Average price: $34,121 Average miles: 13,321 Mileage continues to be the biggest factor on asking prices, although, the >1,000 mile vehicles are not asking for the premium prices they used to:

TLRandall | Glad my Silver wasn't on the list, it would have really brought down the average. At the time I purchased that one, there were three others in Texas listed around $18,000, and the Silver was much lower than that. |
quincy | Glenn, thanks for the update! I seem to be below the average asking price for the milage, but still no interest. On to Ebay next week! Nice job with the statistics! |
garysss | The average asking price doesn't mean anything, it's the average selling price that matters. |
Hoagie1 | Great list! Thanks for putting it up. My Kat has 36k miles, tried listing it a few months back to see what kind of interest I would get. All I can say is keep your Kat! I got the best laughs ever. This message has been edited by Hoagie1 on 12-31-2018 at 06:52 PM |
