I've never been sure how I felt about the Prowler. I was excited about the concept and the production car was somewhat disappointing. I have the same feeling about the model... is it toy-like? or is the 1:1 toy-like. Recently, I ran into a Prowler club and saw all the variation and customizations and I was kind of impressed. Somehow, they look better to me all these years later.
What do you all think?

I too have had mixed emotions about the Prowler. Very cool looking, but under powered. Hemmings has had a few good articles on the marque and it's growing collectibility.

I was put off by the diminutive stature of the car

I never liked the car.

I always liked it.
So cool to produce this car in 1:1-scale...

Ambivalent describes my feelings about the 1/1 Prowler but I'm glad to have the model.

Its oddness appeals to me. Great paint and colour on my model
