Plymouth Voyager, Breeze and Prowler win awards

[Kern]

Plymouth Voyager, Plymouth Breeze and the Plymouth Prowler have recently been chosen for some pretty cool awards . The Plymouth Voyager was picked by Consumers Digest as the "Best Buy" for vans for the 1997 model year and one of Car and Driver's " 10 Best" for 1997. The Plymouth Breeze also made Car and Driver's "10 Best" for 1997 and the new Plymouth Prowler hot rod was chosen by Popular Science as the "Best of What's New". Both the Breeze and the Prowler got the "Worth a Look" nod from Kiplinger's .

Cool, I used to own a Breeze! Nice car in its time.

The Breeze was directly marketed at females....I remember it was nicely styled at the time.

I can remember looking at the Dodge Shadow, green in color. It was a decent car for the time.

I drove a 1993 Plymouth Duster for a couple years. It had the "smoking" Mitsubishi 3.0L and a 5-speed and made for a nice around town car with decent torque at low RPM for such a low curb weight. Too bad the valve seals gave way and it left a blue haze after every stoplight launch (remember the Caravans with the 3.0L....they were even worse with the high curb weight).
