DAF555 ◊ 2005-12-02 19:11	If I understood the first comment right, the Prowler isn´t allowed to sell in France? That could be a reason I guess, if they wanted it to be french. But why not use a more accurate numberplate? Well, low budget is low budget

ShantJ ◊ 2009-04-16 20:59	Wasn't it sold as the Chrysler Prowler outside of North America? As far as I know Plymouth and Dodge were not sold outside North America, Dodge only recently having been introduced.
