2003 Mercury Marauder
A customer came in earlier this week and traded in a 2003 Mercury Marauder. Having zero clue about the car I decided to be the lucky guy to clean it up for the lot. 
Had a nice little soft ride around the local roads, checking for any major sounds or feels, smells, etc. Nice and luxury too. Automatic tranny made that thing shift like a ****ing racecar!
I pop the hood and find a 4.6L V8...specs say 302 HP...I'm going to take a wild guess and say this may be the cobra motor.
so my rating for the car...
nice balance of luxury and gobabygo

Rep Power: 292 Yeah, Marauder was already shown the door - makes it a collectible, only made one year. The whiteface gauges are gorgeous, I sat in one at the Philly Intl Auto Show.

Rep Power: 396 That is one fine ride. It always reminded me of the SS Impala that was out a few years ago. It is too bad it only was out for two production periods. The car was too high priced for what it is, and it couldnt compete with the Japanese Imports and the Euro cars.
