    2003 Marauder...60K Miles...Custom Paint...DVD/NAV...Runs PERFECT! EXCELLENT Car!!

    I want to start off by saying this car is in beautiful condition! I bought it from the original owner and it was purchased at the Ford dealership that he worked at. I really don't want to sell it but now that my GN is up and running I simply don't need both as a second car.

    I'll try to get more pics downloaded in a few days also after it quits raining here and I can get it cleaned up

    Its a blast to drive...Ive never had a car that turned so many heads....Its never seen snow or winter...has been garage kept or covered and driven vey little in the rain...Many upgrades have been done to it since new....First off the entire car was repainted because the factory paint was horrible....It had dirt and hair all over it in the paint and the paint was very thin...It was sprayed in pure black base coat and then the custom 3 color flop Chrome-illusion flames were applied then the whole car was covered in 3 coats of clear....The flames cover the hood fenders and front doors....This IS a $5000 paint job!!!...It looks so much better than a factory paint that it's unbelievable and pics simply do NOT do it justice!!...It has a factory rear spoiler.....I had the tail lamps custom painted black....I also have mercury molded mud flaps on it front and rear...The windows have all been tinted....The inside has been left stock because of the coolness factor right from the factory...The only thing I did do was put performance JL Audio speakers through out...It has an in dash Kenwood DVD/GPS...The interior is in excellent condition except for 1 small hole where the seat frame meets the leather...I was going to replace the whole bottom but not after dropping my price $3000...I just had the whole exterior touched up and buffed...The carpet is just like new...I have the trunk kit in it which is also a costly upgrade...Under the hood is a 4.6 DOHC with well over 300 hp..Under the hood carries a Rhineheart performance chip...Cooler thermostat...Denso sparkplugs...K&N Cold Air Intake...It now has 4.30 gears in the rear end...It has Flowmaster mufflers with Megs stainless tips with no resonators...The car is better than it was from the factory no flat spots during take off and boy does it take off!! At 33,986 miles I had a pulley come loose which caused the motor to suck up a spring...Ford wouldn't do anything about it so I bought a Brand NEW Long block to put in the car...The actual motor has 26K miles on it...I did a cooling system upgrade at this point while the motor was out so both heads are actually getting the same amount of coolant which was a factory default...I also have installed slotted rotors on the front as well...The car will run low 14's in the quarter mile which isn't bad for a big car. The car cruises at 84mph running 3000RPM...Starts to redline at 6000RPM and glides on a cloud at 100mph. I reserve the right to end auction at any time because it is for sale locally

    Fly here and drive it home but bring your radar detector ;-)
    I have a Clean and clear title for the car.....The car will not leave my driveway until all funds have cleared
    Clean car fax and no accidents

    They're NOT purple.....It's a chrome illusion that flips from Gold to Blue to Purple.
    This isn't some ghetto paint job

    Pics do NOT do this paint justice and Everyone that's ever seen has liked it and it sets this Marauder apart from every other black one out there!

    You obviously don't live in Da Hood and haven't seen many ghetto rides because this car is FAR from ghetto!

    I guess Ford Messed up when they painted the Mustang a flip color...LOL
