I think that Z3 is so beautiful...they actually sold his rear-window a few weeks back on Ebay for $100.

Purple Prowler

What other cars does he have or has he ha? He sounds like a BMW enthusiast to me. I wonder if he's gonna get the new Z4 that's supposed to come out this year. I believe it's replacing the out-dated Z3. To me, he looked funny driving the Thunderbird because he's so little and the car has the length of a '57 El Dorado. I wonder why he isn't into exotic sports cars seeing that he likes to drive so fast.

I think that the purple prowler suits him the best. Its cute,edgy,purple and when u see it drive by u just Have to stare at it!!

I still dig "the Beemer in Chiquita Yella"!

But it pissed me off when he took that beautiful car and had it painted gold! He messed it up when he did that! The Prowler is cool too but the "Chiquita Yella" Beemer was my favorite.

I saw Mani pull out of the back of Paisley during the Celebration and zoom past in the Prowler. She had this look of confidence on her face that seemed to say, "yeah, I'm fuckin' him"! Later that same day, me and my girls are walking along the curb towards the Park when this time, Prince himself zooms by in the Prowler! Everybody let out a collective "Yeeaa" as he sped past the main entrance! He waited at the light for what seemed like an eternity then made a left and tore down Highway 5. I read in that Notorius Magazine interview some time ago that the cops don't give him tickets anymore, even though the brotha drives like a maniac! They say he pays so much in property taxes that they just let him do whatever the fuck he wants!

Prince Owns Chanhassen!!

come on ya'll...

it's the thunderbird!

if i ever get rich & famous, im gonna get a red corvette

See now, I'm from all the way over in England but when you said 'Prince turned left onto Highway 5' I know EXACTLY what you mean 'cos I've been there and done it myself Man I miss that place. Roll on June 2003

... oh yes. The Yellow BMW 850 without a doubt. I've seen him roll up outside the Fine Line music cafe in that baby.

The 850 BMW is phat! I don't know why he had it painted gold, yellow was better. The Prowler is cool 2.

The Purple Prowler for sure.

he makes the prowler look like a big-ass cadillac (see my profile pic)...

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

Exactly! That by the way is one of my favorite pictures...he has a messy normal look about him..

The purple Prowler !!!

I wish I could have one !

The Purple Prowler. But what happens to all of the other ones? Prince has such good taste all of his cars were beautiful.

Yeah the cops let him do whatever he wants ,but he can't make love in a movie theater that he rents out!

Definitely the Purple Prowler:)

Every time I've seen Mani, she always has a "cat that ate the canary" look on her face. It may be the expression she puts on when in public. Whenever Mayte was in public she would put on a shy sweet smile face on. No matter what situation Mayte was in, she always had that same sweet smile expression on.

I think I preferred Mayte's sweet smile look to Mani's "ha ha I got him" look.

You are so funny Nikki.

2 red corvettes i have seen are ugly! and the ppl. who drive them are like ppl. who do wear their baseball caps backward!! or really old ppl.

i rather drive a black corvette and white one to my glass house.

Why would you drive a Corvette wouldn't you drive a Porsche?

figures you'd enjoy this thread...

The Prowler for sure. I watched him drive in
the Park and drive out of the Park and he
looked good sitting in that Prowler oh so tastey
I love a man whose drive a sport car 8)

I am sure all of his cars are tastefull but,I personally liked the yellow one in the Get Off video.Unfortunatly, I never seen the purple prowler anyone got a pixture ??

That Charcoal '86 Fiero SE he drives around nowdays is f*cking sick. The paint is so DEEP and the silver speckles deep down in the paint make it look like you're looking into space.

Bad a*s car...

All the mods he did to it like the mags and the digital dash he had made special for it make it look like a brand new car. When he goes through drive throughs folks think it's a brand new car but it's almost 20 years old!

Oh wait, that's me...

Nevermind.

The Yellow Beemer was the ultimate Prince car. Inside he had little white lights all around the trim which made you feel like you were sitting in an airport runway. With Slave (the group) tapes laying around the passenger seat.

I really like the cadillac he drove in Under the Cherry Moon but I think he looks the best on a motorcycle. He needs a better one than that Honda in rode in Purple Rain though.

I think that car was a purple Prowler; not red. We saw him drive by Paisley Park in it during the celebration.

Funklov, that was a Buick Wildcat in UTCM. It looks bigger in the movie. Still a cool ride though

This is gonna sound really sick and weird but Do you think he ever drives older cars? Cause an older Purple car drove into Paisley one night. Just wondering if you thought he ever drove a used vehicle?
