Check this out, a 2002 Chrysler Prowler that Channel 8 NEWS is giving away. My Parents informed me about the News 8 Prowler since they live in Rochester, NY. Styled like a roadster of the 1930s, but redone in the mode of the '50s, the Prowler looks like no other modern car on the road. Motorcycle-type front fenders, for instance, move along with the front wheels. Like the Viper before it, Prowler had been a show car -- but one later made ready for the street. Appearances aside, the Prowler's technology is strictly up-to-date. About 900 pounds of aluminum were used -- in the hood, front side panels, doors, rear deck, frame, bumpers, front suspension wishbones, and seat frames. Plastic was used for rear body panels, rocker panels, and front fenders. Borrowed from Chrysler's LH sedans, the 3.5-liter V6 engine produces 214 horsepower. Rear-wheel drive helps impart a more traditional hot-rod feel. Prowler's sole transmission is a rear-mounted automatic unit with Chrysler's Autostick manual-shift feature, which permits manual gear selection when desired. Antilock brakes and traction control are not available, though brakes are all-disc. Front tires are 225/45VR17 size, while the back end holds massive 295/40VR20 rubber. Both tires have run-flat capability -- essential because there is no room for a spare tire. The retro theme continues into the interior, which features a full complement of gauges at the center of the dashboard, in an elliptical pod. A tachometer is mounted atop the steering column, simulating the look of aftermarket speed equipment. Standard equipment includes air conditioning, a tilt steering wheel, cruise control, 6-disc CD changer, and a defroster for the convertible top's glass rear window. Power windows, locks, and mirrors are also standard. More info is posted at http://www.wroctv.com/viewers/prize.asp?p=2 |
