I joined the club

[wesman]

I went to look at a Blue '03 and it was love at first sight.

I made sure the engine code was 3G-120-AB due to a very informative thread on this board. Its a 300B.

The drive home turned into the drive to the tint shop.

I got the strip across the top of the windshield because I hate wearing sunglasses.

congrats and welcome, tint job looks great.

Welcome to the most rare color car of them all. You will love that thing and if you take car of it it will take care of you.

I suggest removal of that front plate frame. It makes it look a lot better.

Hey enough of that now we DON"T bully other drivers.

We intimidate them. :high5:

Welcome to the Collective and I see you already have your first mod, to bad you just voided your warranty. :neener: Remember now if your wheel falls off due to a faulty lug nut or if you happen to blow a gasket it is because you tinted the windows past factory spec. :nono:

Well you might as well contact one of the venders here and have it S/C'ed now. :drive:

Exact same experience here !!! Welcome to addiction and the site. :welcome:

[NAVCHAP]

They only made 328 blue Marauders, it's amazing that there was still a new one available. We heard about the possible existence of one north of the 49th parallel, so you are the rarest of the rare. Nice job! -kjs-

[FiveO]

Beautiful.....very nice.


Blue....color me jealous!

[Cobra25]

Welcome , and the best of Luck with your New Car.

[chrish]

gotta get a moon roof,promise you will get a moon roof!!!! Was this car brand new? If so were the factory incentives still in tact?????? :party1:

[bigslim]

Nice car. Welcome to the site. As it was stated earlier, you have the most rare color. Enjoy it and keep those pipes clean.

[jgc61sr2002]

wesman - Welcome. Congrats on the purchase of your Marauder. :up: No the fun begins. :D

[wesman]

It was a used car, somebody wanted out of a lease. It has 11,000 miles on it and the price was right. No incentives from the factory on used cars. They had a Black '03 with the 3G-120-AA engine code. I told the sales manager they were different engines, it was the first time he had heard that.

Mod bug, hmmm. I have been PMing BillyGman since a week ago, does that count?

BTW, perhaps I can learn something here. Does anyone know what Wes meant by some of the 03 Marauders having a "different engine"??? Wes, can you enlighten me on this? Have I missed something here? As far as I know, the only thing different is that the 04's have two knock sensors instead of one, like all the 03's have. But apparently you're talking about something more than just that.

I think they are refering to the number on the valve cover sticker mine ends in -AA. Bulid date 08/29/2002.

Hey, nice looking car! I've never seen anything but black, up around here. You made a heck of a drive, to get it, huh? Owen sound is no "just around the corner" Looks like you're on the Westside (Miss/Etob area), no? There are a few guys here, from around the GTA.

Welcome aboard!!! These cars are a blast!:burn:

[Dr Caleb]

Welcome, Hoser!

TripleTransAm mentioned there was a blue one in Montreal, so you might have it, or 1 of 2 in the GWN!

Rare indeed! Congrats!

[wesman]

My car was originally sold in Montreal so maybe.

I am from Oakville but I live at Yonge and Eglinton. I got it tinted over in Etobicoke. Fred's boys do a bang up job every time. You get a barage of Fred's philosphy while standing around waiting, his latest is Spontaneous Lust. Something to do with a strip club I think.

Now that definitely sounds like a topic for the Lounge .... but it may set a record for lowest PTC (Posts til Closure). :dunno:

Yonge and Eg, huh? Walking distance to Hooter's, Filthy McNasty's and, of course, St. Louis Wings (36 Wings + pitcher of beer, on Mondays - how can you go wrong?)... Good stuff! Like I mentioned earlier, there are a few from the TO-area - we should all get together, sometime...

Yes its nice being in the heart of the city. Funniest thing was I had never seen a Blue Marauder before I saw my car at the dealer, and then on the way home there was that exact one parked on Eglinton at Laird. I would be up for a get together, SVT meet whatever.
