Ride and handling targets for the Prowler are set high, so even though the car has the look of a rough and ready custom, the long wheelbase and supple spring and shock absorber calibrations promise a near limousine-style ride. Wide rubber all around ensures plenty of cornering grip, too.
Think of the Prowler as your personal time machine. True, you could build a retro roadster like this yourself, or contract with a legendary craftsman like Boyd Coddington to build a handmade "Boydster" just for you. Either approach is costly in time and money. Or you could visit your Plymouth dealer. Make that "new" Plymouth dealer.

Plymouth PlaceA New Way To Buy Your CARYou're not alone. Most people don't enjoy the car-shopping experience. It's sometimes hard to get an unhurried look at the cars or a straight answer on features, competitive products, or pricing. And there's that hungry look in the salesman's eyes. Plymouth has a different approach called Plymouth Place.
You'll find Plymouth Place displays at many shopping malls (about 90, nationwide) and selected special events. There, you can get a hands-on look at the Neon, Breeze, and Voyager without a salesman prowling the area. You will find Product Specialists, however-people specially trained to explain Plymouth features in plain English and to answer any questions you might have.
Take Your TimeIt's a zero-pressure situation: The Product Specialists couldn't sell you a car even if they wanted to. But they do a great job of helping you sort through the avalanche of information confronting a new-car shopper. They've got plenty of help in the form of a touch-screen information center that takes you through the details of the models you're interested in. You can do it yourself or enlist the aid of a Specialist-it's your choice.
