134072 / 2001 Plymouth Prowler

For more information on this vehicle visit If you're looking for a showroom-fresh cruiser that, in addition to being cooler than an ice cube in an igloo, will provide years of reliable fun, this 2001 Prowler is your kind of car! Envisioned by Chrysler engineers as a production technique testbed, and viewed by corporate marketing gurus as the last chance to revive the corporation's legendary Plymouth division, this pristine drop top is one of only 689 Plymouth Prowlers painted Prowler Orange Metallic for the 2001 model year. Fastidiously maintained, and driven only 52 miles since its pigment hit the sunlight, the car's finish is essentially brand new. Its hand-assembled body is exceptionally dynamic and absolutely nails the custom appearance Chrysler's Connor Avenue brigade spent hours crafting. Its gaps are just as you would expect from a top-of-the-line halo car. And overall, this high profile roadster is an outstanding piece which features world-class build quality and laser-straight body lines. When the Prowler finally hit the streets, many purists were upset that a V6 was the only powertrain option. What those purists failed to realize was: 1) with 253 horsepower and 250 lb./ft. of torque, this car's 3.5 liter 24-valve SOHC V6 was making virtually the same power as Chrysler's Magnum V8s at the time and 2) when combined with the car's lightweight chassis and low center of gravity, it made some very impressive performance numbers. Mechanically, this Plymouth's all-aluminum engine is showroom new in just about every possible way. Naturally, the mill has benefitted from basic maintenance but, beyond that, everything is essentially fresh out of the box. And not only does the smooth sixer fire up instantly, it also idles perfectly and moves this relatively lightweight roadster with real authority. Behind that buff V6, a 42LE 4-speed automatic transaxle, which features an 'AutoStick' gear change setting, is more of a toy than a functional performance improvement. That road ready drivetrain is held off the ground by an aluminum-intensive chassis which is equipped with an independent double A-arm front suspension and an independent multi-link rear suspension. And, for a bit of flash, this Prowler spins 225/45R17 front and 295/40R20 rear Goodyear Eagle GS-Ds around stylish chrome wheels. Inside this neo street rod you'll find a fashionable leather interior that represents drop-top cruising at its finest. At the center of the cockpit, the driver and passenger benefit from plush bucket seats that are stitched around monochromatic Prowler logos. In front of the driver, an Auto Meter tachometer is perched top-dead-center on a tilt steering column that props redundant audio buttons opposite cruise control buttons via a factory steering wheel. At the front of the car a center-mounted 150 MPH speedometer and four small accessory gauges, the voltmeter and oil pressure gauge to the left and the fuel and temperature gauges to the right, ride inside a Prowler Orange Metallic instrument panel that's a great tribute to vintage hot rods of all kinds. And beneath that bright dash, a short factory shifter controls Chrysler's highly regarded AutoStick feature. The bottom line: This is A LOT of bang for your buck! Low miles, great looks, excellent performance, and the kind of ownership experience most OEMs can't touch. Call, click or visit for more information.
