Re:the civic type R
quite an ugly car.
prowlers arent the most beautiful cars, but they arent really a car they're roadsters, and a true roadster looking car. id never buy one unless they made one with a hemi or something. they arent too close stock
in the mid 14s range
2800lbs
253hp
255ft-lbs

Re:the civic type R
I got to check out a prowler about a year ago at a chrysler dealership. I crawled up underneath it and everything.
It has the 300m motor for starters, but the automatic transmission is in the back, not mated to the motor.. has a trans axle or some ---- connecting it. Just an interesting setup. Oh yeah, none of them come in 5 speed (what the salesman told me).
I always liked to see them towing around that gay colour matched trailer for people on roadtrips in their uncomfortable *** prowlers. I heard that all the rap stars were buying them for some fucked up reason.. like master P and ----.

In the article they stated they would start selling the TypeR in the fall of 2003 as a 2004 model. It is now summer 2004...where is the car?
