1999 The engine changed to all aluminum 3.5 liter 24 valve V6 that produces 253 HP. This engine was used through the end of Prowler production. Chrome wheels become an option

97 and 99 prowlers and some 2000 were equipped with Koni shocks

August 1999 the 2000 model production begins. Eventually Chrysler switched to Dynamic Suspension shocks and new springs which made the ride somewhat softer and the cars sit ever so slightly higher. However over time those shocks tend to start leaking. I don't recall Koni's ever being reported as leaking. Begiining with the 2000's A new auto dimming rear view mirror with mini trip odometer and temperature gauge is introduced. A new radio with speed sensitive volume control to automatically increase or decrease the audio level with change in speed. The bumpers are repainted from Gray to Black. The alternator is changed to a new design with declutching pulley to eliminate the serpentine drive belt rattle that occurs as the belt tension decays (relaxes) as the 3.5L does not have an automatic belt tensioner. Chrome wheels are now standard

In Oct 2000 A new Torque Converter with different design is added to production.
