Is really grey. It is a light dove grey color. It has over 31,000 mile on it. It isn't a bad paint job but it has some chips on it. Here are pictures.

It had these badges on it. They are made at De-Tech collision in Detroit.

I like those badges, Darryl. It's a wonder, though, they didn't paint the car black again, since they could have saved a lot of time (and cash) by not having to re-do the doors & such. Thanks for going to the trouble to get the PX. Visiting you guys for MMV III, and getting around Detroit, gives new meaning to going "cross town", we don't appriceate out here in the country.:)

Look at the emblems. Aren' they on wrong? Shouldn't Mr. Mercury, aka Gods Head be looking out (eyes horizontal to the ground) not down?

I think you are right. I draw an imaginary line from the pupil to the back tip of the rim of his hat/helmet and make that parallel to the horizon.

The Mercury God is bowing his head in shame for being attached to a Oddball color Marauder

I didn't think of that! The God's Head should be like that on the eBay MM with the 20" wheels!

Looking at it over the computer screen is never gonna be accurate, but the color almost looks like the Ford color "Cashmere" that they used on 04 and 05 Expedition limiteds.

That was my first thought (well I guess my second after why would someone paint this car this color :puke:

My guess would be the same same as this year, just not as extravagant.

Well at least the ones on the sides are right. . .

maybe if it had some stripes down the hood and over the roof. . .

Me either, I think it looks good (from a distance). I don't care for the lettering on the side.
