The Prowler was a HALO VEHICLE and nothing more. Under powered and overpriced.

Well, the person that gave me this info said the option was presented as
"you can drive the SRT, or the convertible".
I agreed that the SRT was the better choice in that decision. ;)
I haven't personally sat in one of these cars, but from looking at it from
the outside, i'd agree with your assessment of the visibility issue.

To me, the prowler would have been a pretty great platform for some high
performance goodies. But, i really feel Chrysler dropped the ball on that
one, o well....
