Default Will a Prowler beat a S2000?

I've noticed this Prowler( made by Dodge or Chrysler) driving around my neighborhood...and when i see it, the guy gives me a "mean" look when i drive my S2000...i'm thinking about "laying the smack-down" on him..but will i be able to beat the prowler if i decide to race him?...

Haha, they're damn loud. Race him, most likely he has an inferiority comlex, just make it more comlicated by beating him in a 4 cylinder...

What (the hell) is up with guessing what this guy is doing????

Giving you the ""mean" look", what's that?

Pull up next to him, introduce yourself, be cordial...if he's a fuc%&ng loser. Well, now you know. (Then you'll know if you should race him, or bitch slap him).

Just over a 100lbs more than our car, a 3.5liter v6 with ~250 horses and an automatic transmission. Of course, a Paxton increases their power up to something like 50%, but still, its a Prowler - I really don't think its anything more than looks. Although black/black Prowlers with the top up look pretty good, not sure I'd have one in my driveway.

In a straight line yes they will at least with a decent driver. Knowing BRI how slow you drive your car (is it even got 600 mile on it now ) you will get beaten. They are very quick cars in the twisties two so don't get to cocky. Just remeber that the average age of a prowler owner is 63.
