Yeah, the Prowler was all style and no substance. Compared to other cars in it's price range at the time, it was cheaply made and slow. You paid for the looks. You could have bought an E36 M3 for the same amount and had a vastly mechanically superior car.
It was a cruiser and 100% the intent of the car. It was for the guy who wanted a classic hotrod with modern convinces with a warranty and dealer support. The customer buying a Prowler is not cross shopping a M3.... completely different customer bases.
It woould have been a bigger hit if f they offered a V8 and a manual option.
Many have swapped engines and transmissions.

The Howler had the 8 and manual. It had more of a truck bed with a cover than the hatch back like the Prowler. If I remember right, they used a 4.7 because the 5.2 and 5.9 were too wide.
