>From Automobile Magazine(Jan. '98), the 1999 Prowler (there will be no '98

model) will be available in Yellow, Red, and Black.  Under the hood, the car

will receive Chrysler's all new aluminum 3.5L V6, good for 250 hp.  Still

looks like the car is only available with a slushbox tranny.

>>Last week someone on the list inquired if the new Miatas had the "Lumpy"

>>paint on the rocker panels and lower doors.   It Does!!!  Saw one today

>>at the Philly Auto Show.  They had it up on a stage so one couldn't get

>>in and do an imaginary run in it.  BMW and Mercedes had theirs on the

>>floor.  Their cars got 10 years worth of door slams in one afternoon.

>>The Mercedes SLK was Yeller!  My favorite of the show was the Prowler,

>>not a "burple" one but it too was Yeller...   Really looked cool.
