    Gray/silverish Marauder

    I was in the SW suburbs of Chicago this past weekend and saw a Marauder that was a grayish/silver metalic. Is this possible? Would someone actually have the car repainted that color? It didn't look all that bad, but then again, it lacked a certain muscle.

    Hmmm???
    Sure it wasn't a dirty Silver? As for repaint, yes some people would have it repainted if they wish.

    Are you sure that wasn't the new Silver Birch color?

    Local dealer has one. The Silver Birch is quite "classy" and it's an appropriate dark shade of Silver for a Marauder

Looks like there's been a serious splintering. I never thought it'd be possible for this to happen to a group of owners of a car model that sold no more than 14000 copies over 2 model years. Kind of scary, when thinking of the scale. Makes one think that maybe it'd be a good idea to do some introspection and think about what each of us needs to do to build a solid community, analyze what it is we're all honestly looking for by belonging to this community.

    Don,

    I told you this in person...but I LOVE that Silver Birch!

    If I were to do it again and it was available with the black....it'd be a tough decision.

    When I bought mine, it was only available in black. I didn't know the new colors were available yet. Naturally, when I saw the silver birch, it was pulling away from me. I was with the family in the jeep at the time, so you can imagine how I longer for the Marauder at the time. I bet its much nicer to be in a silver car than a black one as it was approaching 90 degrees.

    All three colors are so sweet. I'm partial to the silver with the black grill though. (I think it'd be a bit easier to keep presentable.)

    I love my black when it's clean and waxed, but criminy, within seconds it's covered with dust and blech!
