Please settle debate, white Marauder?

Claims to have beaten a WHITE Marauder. Now I see guys badging their cars to be Marauders, so I'm guessing its a poser. I've seen the black, blue, and silver but never any white ones.

You guys would know, did they ever make them?

[wchain]

No Sir,
They Made them in Black, Dark BLue Pearl Metallic, Silver Birch, Dark Toreador Red and a very limited number of Candyapple Green, but those were only available before brefas :lol:

[Shaft333]

It's always fascinating to read other car enthusiasts opinion and knowledge of Marauders.

No white Marauders. At least none from the latest generation. I don't know much about the old ones, however I doubt the GTP enthusiasts know about them.

[2003 MIB]

No. There were Black, Blue, Red and Silver from the factory. Although there is a chance it had been repainted (Slime green seems to have been at least one owner's choice) it is more likely that it was some other Panther platform car.

[TooManyFords]

If this car would have come in Wimbledon White I would have gotten it!

Huzzah!

It may have been Silver Birch, mistaken for white, but there were never any factory ones, white. :)

There was also a Purple Marauder (or was it lavender metallic) :rofl: :) with gull wing doors posted here long ago !! Of course, it probably started life as a black or a blue. :( We will probably never know. :rolleyes:

You read my mind , Wes...It's sad how the green car is now etched into the rich lexicon of mm.net.

[Darkside]

Thanks guys! Most Gtp enthusiasts know about your Marauders, of course the Gtp community is growing younger and younger. The youngins tend not to like the big cars nor understand the need to go fast in a big comfortable car.:shake:

Let me know when the prices start to drop on your cars, I still want one some day.;)

Welcome to the board and come back anytime. The youngsters on your board shouldn't feel bad- Mercury didn't really understand this car either or they would have sold more.:D

I could have gone all day without seeing that thing again.:puke: :puke: :puke:

[Petrograde]

Dude's Mom does not own a Marauder. That 'slight' picture is of a Crown Vic or Grand Marquis. Prob'ly an LX Sport?

[marauder307]

Darkside,

I clicked over to the forum and read it through. This guy is smoking ditchweed. There were NEVER any white Marauders; believe me, more than one person has asked that question, and a few of the board members here have fantasized on the idea. This guy didn't go after a Marauder.

NOW...it's very easy to mistake a Crown Vic for a Marauder. The taillight configuration is the same; I've heard it said that in fact the Marauder line actually uses the rear body clip from the CV's. In determining whether or not you've just been whupped by a MM, look for the following:

---Rear fascia unique to the MM. It will have cutouts for the dual exhaust and the name "MARAUDER" clearly stamped into the bumper cover.
---The dual exhaust itself. Marauders come from the factory with 3" Megs SS tips; if you actually get a chance to see a MM standing still sometime, look under the rearend and you'll see the factory welds where they added them on. As an additional note, this detail, BY ITSELF, is not enough to distinguish the car; aftermarket suppliers have these particular tips for sale to Crown Vic/Gee-Mark owners. Use caution in calling it an MM if this is the only detail you can see!
---Uni-color bodies. The only chrome on the bodywork will be around the side windows, and some owners have "fixed" that. :cool: Check that---most owners will still have the chrome "waterfall" Mercury trunk badge and identical grill badge. The picture posted on your thread shows a car with chrome accents around the door handles---NOT A MARAUDER. The only colors that Marauders were available in were: Black (the predominant color), Silver Birch, Dark Toreador Red, and Dark Pearl Blue. The Silver Birch models will have blacked-out grilles; all other colors will be full-body only. Additionally---once again, if you actually find one standing still---the interior colors were ONLY available in Dark Charcoal or Light Flint, and the interiors were ONLY leather. No cloth.
---The rims. Marauders come factory stock with 18x8 5-spoke polished (somebody check me on this) aluminum rims. Some owners have put other rims on there; during the winter months CV Police Interceptor steel wheels have been seen in use as the stock rims don't react well to salt. But by and large, the 5-spokers are mainly used and UNIQUE TO THE VEHICLE.
---The stance. Marauders come with different series tires, F/R. Fronts are 50 series, rears are 55 series, and the idea there was to induce a "hiked" hotrod look to the car.
---This detail will be the hardest to see: The foglights. Marauders all came from the factory with 80mm Cibies mounted well down on the front fascia, and the cutouts wrap around to the side. IF you can get a glance at the front end and it's packing foglights---most likely a Marauder.

And the last way you can tell it was a Marauder?

It just beat you. :D

[Darkside]

Darkside,

Hey lets not get crazy, your probably going to need FI to beat me.;) I know the Marauder fairly well, and was a whisker away from buying a leftover new one last year. I just couldn't imagine driving one in the winter in my area.

I was very impressed with the car, just wish it had some more balls right from the factory. I used to own a Impala SS years ago, and liked the feel and drive of the Marauder over it.

[Sully008]

I too read the whole thread, and either the person he raced repainted his MM, or it was a CV/GM look-a-like. A CV Sport with the Meg's tips, MM wheels and MM corners will look very similar to the MM. The CV has cutouts for dual exhaust, just not as prominent as the MM. The only other strange thing is I don't recall seeing a white CV Sport either?

As for the Mom's car, MMs don't have the chrome/black handles, they are body color. Ditto the B-pillars, they are body color as well. If you look closely at the front/rear seats, you don't see the "French" stitching, nor the embossed God's head on the fronts. Plus the front seat headrests are a different shape. So I'm not sure if his Mom's is a MM either? It does look like it's Silver, though.

Sadly, I think they've got a case of a young man who's painted himself into a corner. His Mom doesn't drive a Marauder but he's gone too far now to back down and admit the truth. I was young once and did many, many stupid things. Sometimes I still do...I think I would be more likely to report having seen Elvis having a beer with Bigfoot than the white Marauder- it's just more plausable.

[Breadfan]

There are people on these boards in the low 14's with out FI. Simple things can be done to really bring these cars to life. 4.10 gears, re-tune, intake, exhaust upgrades, pullies, etc, all those can go a long way. And none of these things adversely affect driveability - it's a shame it didn't come that way stock!

We make plenty of power stock, just econo gearing :( and maybe a bit heavy at 4200lbs. :)

With FI people can make it below the mid 11's. Not bad for 4200lb's. :)

GP's are cool cars too though, I used to have a Grand Am, had considered trading it in for a GP GTP but honestly I had some bad experiences with GM's design flaws in the Grand Am and that made me shy away from another GM product for the time being...it's sad, but it's GM's fault.

[wchain]

Even LX Sports only came in:
Dark Wedgewood, Black, Silver, DTR, and I saw a Dark Green one yesterday (yeah I checked it had a floor shifter). I dont recall seeing a White LX SPort Before....

[SouLRioT]

http://www.clubgp.com/newforum/upfiles/27339/Ge94693.jpg one other observation, is that we dont have key holes on the passenger side either. I cant tell if the body side molding is wrong on not too.

[Breadfan]

That looks like a GM in the picture...

Don't be too surprised though, they can have things done to them too and be made pretty quick. There are a few quick CV's and GM's here on this board. They have the modular 4.6 2v like the Mustang GT's (pre-2005) so there are mods that can be done to make them quicker.

I still laugh...one night I was with my friend in his '98 Town Car, totally stock. We had the windows down and were getting the stink-eye from some young kid (ok I'm 24...) who was with his girlfriend in a hopped up Miata. (I like Miata's, btw, poor Miata had a jerk driving it.) Anyway, my friend dusted him pretty good in his grandpa-like Town Car, the guy in the Miata was visibly PISSED and his girlfriend was shaking her head.

Both of us were promptly whipped by a '70 GTO. THAT was cool.

[duhtroll]

It's a GM. The seats don't sport our embossed logo, either.

Tell the guy from us that he is officially on crack. Had he gone up against a real MM he would have known, because he could read the back bumper cover when he got smoked.

From a standstill a stocker is a bit of a dog, but from a roll when this car hits its powerband, it can run pretty darn well.

-A

[Rider90]

Intresting that he says:

It was that color. It was a Marauder!!!!!!!!!!!!! Had the badging, pipes and the rims for sure
What badging? Oh, the waterfall on any Grand Marquis? also lacks mentioning the words "MARAUDER" on the bumper.

Funny the other kid doesn't even know what his mom drives. Those headrests are the last generation pill types, you can see them on past Grand Marquis, Crown Vics and Crown Vic P71s. We also have NO chrome around the handles, unless added, and our handles are painted body color and not flat black.

You guys can say what you want. I sent Bearkat an email with an offer to buy the ultra-rare white Marauder. It would seem that most of you are completely unaware of the super secret "body in white" SVT racing program where an experimental factory supercharged Marauder was unleashed on the streets by a paperwork error. I shall name her "The White Buffalo".

I took some of our collective points and posted on the website.

Thats definitely NOT a Marauder. Those are Pre-03 Seats, CLoth at that, They are split BENCH, and the chrome door handles (good Catch Mike!)

I hope we dont start talking about GTPs because we'll look bad....



Very good eye. I too noticed the light grey seats. Marauders had dark grey,black interiors.
:rolleyes:


They definitely made a cream marauder. They also made a blue one, too.


Ford had some of them supercharged from the factory. Thats probabley what he ran.

Really? Thats Odd. I never seen a white one before, then again, I never saw a dark green one till I saw the one last night, with 17" LX SPort Wheels and Floor Shift.....

The Ford Website says 05 LX Sports Come in DTR, Silver, Midnight Grey and Black.... No white...that would look weird, all white rear fascia and grille...:confused:

Well, I got the news about my mother's car. It was painted at the dealer with the white color. And as for the door handles, they are replacements, due to wreckage on that side, it was fixed at Maaco.

Uhhhh

1. Those are the incorrect seats in the front front (No Gods head Imprints on the Seatbacks) Seat backs are not shaped like 03+ Seats
2. Incorrect Rear Seat (Shape and No rear Armrest)
3. Incorrect Headrests in front Seats
4. Driver Rear Door Lock Rod looks Chrome- Marauders were black
3. What are you doing taking a Marauder to Maaco for Collision Repair???
:down: :shake:

[CRUZTAKER]

Darkside,

I clicked over to the forum and read it through. This guy is smoking ditchweed. :DIndeed he is high on something.

Doesn't matter what color he thinks he saw....I have matched up with all sorts of GTP'S GTP-X's....whatever....

They're all driver dreamers...and slow.....:shake:

He was likely racing a SOHC Grand Marquis.

[Breadfan]

In regards to the issue at hand, I just hope it has been made clear how easy it is to convert a GM or CV to a Marauder look-a-like. How many V6 Mustangs have you seen with a "COBRA" rear bumper? Doesn't mean you smoked a Cobra.

From what I've seen, stock for stock, a GTP is probably quicker than a stock Marauder. Each car has potential from that point on, and it's anyones guess once mod's are added. I've seen some very quick GTP's but at the same time there are plenty of screamin' Marauders...

But more to my point, it's not hard to fake a Marauder with a CV or GM. A Marauder rear bumper that can be acquired, a dual exhaust cat back, and everyone thinks you have a white Marauder.

I for one am not going to bash the Grand Prix and I hope none of the GP guys bash the Marauders. I'd also hope the same goes for us here. GP's can be made quick, and I respect that. General Motors *should* have made them RWD but I won't even go there. :)

But, I'm a fan of cool cars.

And hey, a GP isn't a HONDA.

[Breadfan]

Doesn't matter what the color....I have matched up with all sorts of GTP'S GTP-X's....whatever....

They're all driver dreamers...and slow.....:shake:
I wouldn't trade my Marauder for one, but I have seen modified GTP's pull mid-12's in the 1/4 mile. That's pretty darn respectable for FWD V6.

Of course for the cost of those mod's a Marauder will do mid 11's and leave a cooler burnout. :)

But I'm not bashin', it's just what I like. :)

[Shaft333]

Moments after reading this thread a coworker stopped me in the hall to tell me about the TAN Marauder they saw while at Indy last weekend.

At first I tried to explain and then finally just said it was cool and walked away.

[CRUZTAKER]

No bash to their population....just that :rasta: dude posting he could run a MM with an aged GTP.

I guess my reply was more in regards to the ones I see every friday at the local track. Getting up there in miles, and driven by KIDS. None of these ran deeper than 14.

There's always souped up everythings...there is Datsun B210 that pulls wheelies at the track I attend. Big deal. It has no interior and breaks every other weekend.

The only Pontiac I respect out of quality build, nice interior, and plenty of power is the GTO. The rest are just in the mix of look fast cars with fart cans to make them sound fast as well.

[Blackened300a]

God, Reading that Thread on the GTP Site did nothing but Piss me off!! How can someone insist on something that they have no clue about! I also didnt like the comment "Grandpa Car" Grrrrrr I like the Way That Dope insisted it was a Marauder to the Point that He had to type in huge Letters IT WAS A MARAUDER!! YOU FOOL!!!! Then to top it off, The Dude who Raced the So-Called "Marauder" Is so Convinced that his car is SO fast, That he Insisted that the Car he raced HAD to be Supercharged! As If a N/A Panther would be insulting to be Gained on by. UGH UGH. Its the Same Delusional Ideas that the Dodge Forum Members have!!

[Breadfan]

I agree that thread has some people bashing our cars and misunderstanding them, and yes there are plenty of GP's that are nothing. I've come up against a few, and there wasn't much to it.

Just want to make sure we give respect when it's due though. I'd hate for them to see this thread and think we're going to bash their cars without reason. I've seen it happen so many times, the debates just boil down to pointless fights about which car is better, when there's things on each that are good.

I still have a preference though, which is why I'm posting here. :) :) :)

[Breadfan]

This reminds me when I got my Maruader, I was still going to the Grand Am forums. Some people there mis-read one of my posts as bashing the new GTO. I had merely stated they just sorta rebadged an existing car that was the same style as it was when it came out in Australia in 1997, and by doing so they weren't really doing the GTO all the justice they could do.

What ensued was a bunch of "you drive an old mans car" and "where's your depends!".

I then reminded them the fasted 99'+ Grand Am was only in the 13's and this Grandpa car could easily embarrass them.

So respect IS a two way street, as much as I want to talk about it, it IS a two way street...

I totally agree:up:

[black99lightnin]

Hey guys, I've tried explaining to them several times he probably raced a CV. And who the only takes a picture of their roof? Got something to hide?:nono:

[STLR FN]

I have a feeling that going over to the GP forums and explaining is a lot like our S/C wars; everyone has an opinion, some will be respectful, some will be belligerant, but in the end it's like pissing in the wind noone wins and everyone's wet.

[marauder307]

I WILL give the GP guys one thing for this particular model year: the GP GXP. 5.3L V-8 (327 cid), the "paddle-shift" option on the automatic, and all the other options...really good car. Test drove one a few months back and woulda taken it home that day, but the dealer was a d-ck and told me my MM was only worth pennies. This after telling he had no idea what a MM was...

[MENINBLK]

Hey lets not get crazy, your probably going to need FI to beat me.;) I know the Marauder fairly well, and was a whisker away from buying a leftover new one last year. I just couldn't imagine driving one in the winter in my area.

Nope,

Don't need that either.
All you need is a good TUNE, and a CAI, and the Marauder really perks up.
The guys that go F/I are the ones who want all out power,
and have the money to invest into our little hobby...

[Merc-O-matic]

I was.....there was a guy at the FFW (Norwalk, O.) last month
who fooled me. I said "nice Marauder"....he said "it is nice"
but it's not a Marauder...you sure fooled me.
He had a 1999 Mercury Grand Marquis all black with a Marauder engine,
Marauder wheels, grille, pipes...the whole bit. But check out the
interior. Regular Marquis interior with TAN leather seats!

Gotta Love It! :o

[David Morton]

...Mercury didn't really understand this car either or they would have sold more.:DBite your tongue! I think they understood it fine. I do believe they said words like "Limited Production" and "One of a Kind" and "Made for a very special kind of performance car enthusiast".

I'm glad they only made about 10,000 or so Marauders.

Here's the rub. Mustangs sell 15,000 plus a month because they're selling six-bangers to people that want to look like they own a fast car or just like the body style. Production numbers for the real performance models like the Cobra's or Mach I's are low like the Marauders too.

I just don't understand all the *****ing from guys that own one and complain that they're not still making them. Guys that don't own one, well sorry about your luck. I don't own an 02 Mach I either. Maybe they'll make one for the new model.

Bite your tongue !!!
:rofl:

[2003 MIB]

Bite your tongue! I think they understood it fine. I do believe they said words like "Limited Production" and "One of a Kind" and "Made for a very special kind of performance car enthusiast".
Surely you jest, Sir:eek: ...Mercury wants to make money selling cars. They wanted to sell 18,000 of these cars at $30K+- did that happen? No.

In general, the L/M dealer network knew very little about selling or servicing a performance vehicle customer.

The car was marketed poorly- How many folks do you meet that have never heard of the Marauder? They love it when they see it- Why didn't they see it when it was available?

The acknowledgement by Mercury that the vehicle has "limited appeal" is simply "spin" for their abandonment of the performance market.

[2003 MIB]

I was.....there was a guy at the FFW (Norwalk, O.) last month
who fooled me. I said "nice Marauder"....he said "it is nice"
but it's not a Marauder...you sure fooled me.
He had a 1999 Mercury Grand Marquis all black with a Marauder engine,
Marauder wheels, grille, pipes...the whole bit. But check out the
interior. Regular Marquis interior with TAN leather seats!

Gotta Love It! :o
I saw that car at Indy (MVII) and it is a really cool car. I thought at the time it was a SOHC 4.6 but we were in line behind him for the Brickyard laps and I didn't get to ask a lot of questions..

[Darkside]

Indeed he is high on something.

Doesn't matter what color he thinks he saw....I have matched up with all sorts of GTP'S GTP-X's....whatever....

They're all driver dreamers...and slow.....:shake:

Now you are starting to suck into the same mentality that some over on clubgp have. Just because YOU have run into slow ones, doesn't mean they all are. I'll gladly run you in my Regal which is the same as the GP, and yes I'm in the Cleveland area. Minus your nitrous run, we have similar times except your about 3-4mph short on the trap. My car isn't anywhere near being heavily modded. My old gp ran 12.7@106 and is damn slow compared to what others are now running.

As far as the poster that said MM's could run 11's for what GP's need to run 12's, I highly disagree. As much as some Gp owners might not know about your cars, some of you might not be very knowledgable on the Gp's capabilities.

Stock Gtp's should run mid 14's with a good launch. $500 in mods will easily obtain mid to high 13's. For the guys serious into modding, 11's are now the norm compared to 12's from a few years ago. There are now several cars in the 10's which are daily drivers without using nitrous.

I think the perception occurs since there are about ten billion Gp's on the road and the number of modded ones are low compared to the production number. Again, I would own a MM right now if driving in snow wasn't an issue. My wife loved driving the MM and we again talked last night about getting one. But its not feasible living in the snowbelt.

Carry on fella's, just don't be too harsh on the lil V6's.:beer:

The acknowledgement by Mercury that the vehicle has "limited appeal" is simply "spin" for their abandonment of the performance market.

Wow!! That sounds very familiar with another attempt Mercury had advertising a high performance vehicle. See my other Ford forgotten vehicle. The Merkur XR4Ti. They said it was going to be a BMW killer back in 1985. Well, it killed them on the tracks in Europe, but was such a poor seller in the US/Canada. Only 46,000 XR's were sold from 1986-89. 1989 is the rarest with only 199 being made.

Here's some reasons why it didn't sell:

Can you say Merkur correctly? It's not "Murker", it's "Mare-coor".

Target buyers were 25-35 year olds. Back then if you didn't have a walker, you had no reason to walk into a Lincoln/Mercury dealership.

Salesman had no clue about the car. They would rather sell a TC with more profit on it than sell the XR.

I could go on, but you guys already know the rest of the story...

[2003 MIB]

Back then if you didn't have a walker, you had no reason to walk into a Lincoln/Mercury dealership.
I forgot this part but I was the only person without blue hair in the dealership the day I bought mine.

[CBT]

No Sir,
They Made them in Black, Dark BLue Pearl Metallic, Silver Birch, Dark Toreador Red and a very limited number of Candyapple Green, but those were only available before brefas :lol:Thank you, I almost blew coffee out my nose at this!!

You're right, man. We all have our favorite cars, and we all had our own reasons for buying what we did. Because of that, we each think our car is the best and ultimately fail to notice what else is going on.

That's why I didn't get the green Marauder. I knew it would be a target for thieves.

I heard GM is going to make the switch to RWD for some upcoming platforms.

Some V6s aren't so bad, but RWD is what all the big boys do:)

[RCSignals]

http://www.clubgp.com/newforum/upfiles/27339/Ge94693.jpg one other observation, is that we dont have key holes on the passenger side either. I cant tell if the body side molding is wrong on not too.

Key on the passenger side is a base level CV. Since the B pillar is black and the handle surround is chrome, it's not a PI unless it's a SAP.
Not a Taxi either. Probably from Hertz.

[RCSignals]

Don't those guys over ther know that the GTP is a girls car?

I've asked him twice now to get the VIN so that we can run it against OASIS or CarFax. That would settle the matter very easily.

But he is getting snotty instead.

[RCSignals]

This is quite funny from Cedric.

"No they are mid 15 sec cars, just because it feels faster don't mean ****,if your car ran a 14.8 you would kill one.Stock they suck but if you put some kind of F/I they can be made fast. "

and

" I see Marauder's run at the track all the time. Best time I've seen was low 16's with no wheel spin.

I was about to buy one until I saw how slow they were. They do sound cool as hell though."


Reading that thread is great entertainment! :D

He won't provide a fullshot either. Unwillingness to comeforth.

Waste of time kid if you ask me.

He'll either blow the thread off completely now or start getting really snotty in his comments. I'm betting on the former.

The VIN solution is the easiest. If as he says he lives far from his parents then I can see that getting pictures wouldn't be easy. But getting the VIN takes a phone call and looking up on Carfax or OASIS.

I just wish I knew what a noob was. It sounds bad, but I suppose since I don't know what it is I shouldn't be offended by it.

Maybe I should be scared of his 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue (http://www.autopedia.com/Oldsm/98_IntrigueIntro.html). After all it comes with "...Oldsmobile's capable 3800 Series II V6, 195 horsepower engine..."

Thinking about it maybe we should take him up on it. After all we have Marauder owners here from all over the country. Let's get the nearest Marauder owner to go to his Mom and Dad's house and inspect the car. :bs:

This thread reminds me of one right now where a guy posted pics of an internet porn girl and tried to pass them off as his girlfriend. OWNED!!

Is this really worth the effort? Pontiacs are a dime a dozen, on a hot day. Comparing any of them to the MM is comparing apples to oranges, other than having 4 wheels, not one thing in common. Just a Chevy with different skin.

There were 2 on the GP site that claimed white marauders. The first one was 1ChunkyGPX that said he had the "white" marauder kill, who finally later gave it up and realized he was owned. Bearkat was the one who said his mommy had a "white" marauder and never gave it up, even after it was proved he was owned. It was quite entertaining reading. I had alot of laughs.
