In 1997, the Plymouth Prowler was brand new, and it came in only one color: Prowler Purple. The rear-wheel drive Prowler was powered by an LHS-derived, 3.5-liter high-output 24-valve sequential multiport electronic fuel injection 60-degree single overhead cam V6 that produced 214 horsepower at 5,850 rpm, with a rear-mounted 4-speed fully adaptive electronically controlled automatic transmission with AutoStick. The Prowler could accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 7.0 seconds with a top speed of 118 miles per hour.
