I came across this article that I had not seen before and thought some of you may enjoy it also.

First, I thought Hot Rod magazine completely ignored the Prowler. It's nice to see they not only acknowledge the car, but praised it.

If Gray (RIP) approved of the car, that's the supreme stamp of approval.

My only argument to the article... "YARDS of legroom"?!?!?!

BT - last year I read an article on leg room and The Prowler was second only to the Honda S2000 in LENGTH of legroom. It was probably a sure bet they did not consider the width of the foot well.

I have long legs but the problem is that my knees hit the dashboard. There is room to stretch them out if you can sit with your legs perfectly straight. I can't stand that position for very long.
I still plan on keeping it (and keeping it STOCK) for years to come.

Marty...VERY interesting! I have to tilt the wheel up slightly more than I want to keep my knees from interfering...I'm 6' 1"...But my legs are longer than most.

Marty,
Never seen that article before.Thanks. Enjoyed reading it.
I have built 29 and 32 hi-boy roadsters with lots of power and noise and really liked cruising them.
I've also enjoyed several muscle cars over the years.
The Prowler is "my car". It fits my personality,activities and it looks great. My Kat performs to my satisfaction while providing comfort for long distance driving.
Have never had a car I enjoyed so much.
