Year to Year Changes
1997
Plymouth Prowler:
Only 457 were produced but Prowler would be back for 1999.
1999
Plymouth Prowler:
Reintroduced in spring of 1998 as a '99 model, Prowler had a new V6
engine that produced 253 horsepower--39 more than in 1997. That
engine came from the Chrysler 300M and LHS. As before, the sole
transmission was a rear-mounted automatic unit with Chrysler's
Autostick manual-shift feature. Antilock brakes and traction control
remained unavailable. In addition to the original purple body color,
the revived Prowler came in yellow, black, or red. Chrome wheels
were newly optional, too.
2000
Plymouth Prowler:
Suspension revisions were the major changes this year, along with
new body colors. Springs were softened and shock absorbers
recalibrated, in an attempt to improve ride and handling. Silver
joined the body-color list, replacing yellow and purple. A new
chrome bezel and leather boot went on the gearshift, and an
automatic-dimming mirror contained an integral compass and trip
computer.
2001
Plymouth Prowler:
Adjustable shock absorbers and new colors are the only changes for
this limited production model. Production ceased at the end of the
year.
2002
Plymouth Prowler:
Inca Gold replaced Mulholland Blue midyear as an option to orange or
silver. The last Prowler was put together on February 15, 2002.
