1999 Plymouth Prowler – today’s tempter

1999 Plymouth Prowler

This has to be one of the most distinctive road cars released in the last 40-or-so years.

Our story on the series notes: “They built it? Really? The Hot Wheels-made-real Plymouth Prowler has you asking the same question in 2024 as it did when the first of these retro roadsters prowled American streets in 1997.

“Paying homage to ’32 Ford hot rods, this was Chrysler Corp designer Tom Gale’s even more extrovert follow-up to the bonkers Dodge Viper.

“The Prowler wowed in concept form at the 1993 Detroit Auto Show, was somehow given the production green light, then they hand-built almost 12,000 of these overwhelming aluminium open-wheelers up until 2002.”

The drivetrain is 3.5lt V6 claiming 214hp with a four-speed automatic transmission.

Delivered as left-hand-drive, it includes folding roof.

Classic & American Imports in Adelaide has it on the market for $74,900.
