When it comes to cool collectible cars, typically, enthusiasts will choose a classic hot rod, or occasionally a late-model muscle car, or sometimes want a car that is just unique and cool. Well, what if you could have a car embodying all three of those characteristics? That's precisely what this 1999 Plymouth Prowler has going for it. Painted in its original black color, this car has had its front bumpers custom color-matched to the exterior paint to give it an even more sinister look. With just 22,105 miles on the odometer, this neo-hot rod is far younger than its quarter-of-a-century age suggests.
Inside this two-seat throwback roadster, we find a beautifully well-kept black leather interior that looks and feels nearly as clean and stock as the day it was made. The centrally mounted white-faced gauge cluster is only offset by the factory-installed Autometer column-mounted tachometer, which keeps track of every RPM. An upgraded Kenwood AM/FM/CD head unit looks right at home, nestled above the easy-to-use analog HVAC controls.
Under the hood, we find a high-output version of Chrysler's 3.5-liter DOHC aluminum block and heads V-6 that produces 253 hp and 255 lb-ft of torque. That power is then routed through a rear-mounted four-speed Autostick semi-automatic transmission by way of a torque tube to allow engineers to give the Prowler perfect 50/50 weight distribution.
This 1999 Plymouth Prowler is just one of 3,921 made for this model year. Along with its fully independent suspension, this good-looking car sports staggered 17-inch wheels shod in 225/45ZR-17 rubber up front and huge 20-inch wheels wrapped in 285/40ZR-20 low-profile tires in the back to give it a true old-school cool stance. But, this Prowler is also blessed with plenty of modern amenities like power-assisted windows, locks, mirrors, brakes and steering to allow its owner to enjoy being the center of attention at the car show as well as the drive to and from that show.
