Prowlers are mid 14 second cars. You should have him.

when i used to work ay a chrysler dealership..we had one there...we had to do an inspection cuz some guy bought it..we took it out and man was it ever SLOW..i mean with a few bolt ons a neon r/t or higline could beat it (headers,intake, exaust) they are a cruising car not a drag car..sure they look like they are fast but they are slower then a topaz..and man those are slow..

According to kbb.com, they have 253 hp, adn 255 ft/lbs trq. Car weighs 2900 w/o driver, and is auto. A prowler is just for looks, they are so ugly they are almost at laughable. The only ppl that have them are old ppl that think they are driving a modern hot rod. I think the car would be good for mid 14's with a normal driver. The only way it could take a new SS is if the SS was parked on the side of the street.

that's what he told me...

he's a pretty cool guy though. he used to bring it to the bagel store next to where i worked and you should've seen then crowd of people that came to look at it. old guys would come up to him and be like "so, what's that got, a v6?"

definately a chick magnet though...
