That second one is the same car that was previously listed as having a factory Police Interceptor package...it's the exact same description word-for-word... :bs:

The sellers are calling it the GM Marauder probably to cover those potential buyers that will read "Marauder" and be clueless as to what a Marauder is, which means they are most likely not potential Marauder owners anyway.

It's a sales shotgun approach.

Exactly. The typical GM buyer doesn't want the wizz-bang version

That silver one is really nice.

Probably have the reserve up around $30K though...which is too high IMHO.

I couldn't resit but send a note to the seller. I have a copy/paste reply ready for these morons....


Gentleman,
As a Marauder owner, and I feel I must enlighten your sales staff. The automobile you are attempting to sell on ebay is a MERCURY MARAUDER. It is NOT a Gran Marquis Marauder. There is no such thing as a 'Marauder package'. Your description is just one more embarrassment in the feeble attempt to market this automobile by uneducated sales staff across this country. This was the primary reason for the demise of the Marauder.
Please update your description, and avoid further ebarrassment throughout the internet Marauder websites.....honestly, we are laughing at you, not WITH you.

Yeah....but I got to keep them guessing....:D

Actually it's a common mistake for me. My anniversary is 6-26, and when I joined, I was bummed I missed that number by like 2 hours or so. I forget who is 626, but they dont post, and I have had hopes the stay offline long enough that I may acquire that member number some day!

Member 626=ProfessorFalken. He made one post the day he joined in Feb. 8th 2003 and hasn't been back since....offline....:shake:

Come on Harold!!!!Give up the member number!!!:alone:
