We may not be seeing the last of the non-boring, non-aerodyamic, etc.,
designs. My hat is off to Plymouth for their introduction of the Prowler as
a production model. This is true retro design and I would love to test drive
one. I know absolutely nothing about the car except that it is the most
radical departure I have seen in the pitifully mundane and unadventurous
world of automotive marketing, not just in a long time, but maybe ever. We
all acknowledge how chicken-sh*t American (especially) car makers are, and
for a major company to let something like this escape from the design team
is, to me, either a sign of someone asleep in the boardroom or evidence of a
set of balls the size of Montana.

Anybody tried one out yet?
