New Marauder owner

[99SVT]

I traded my 96 Thunderbird in for an 03 Marauder on 31 Jan 06. I'll be using it as a daily driver so I'm not too worried about the higher milage on it. I remember seeing these in the showrooms a few years ago, and I wanted to have one back then. It handles like my 99 Cobra and is more comfortable than my Tbird; I like this car.

Here's some quick pics I took, I'll try to get some better ones when the weather improves.

how much did you pay?

Hey welcome aboard.
I notice from your age that you are helping to lower the average age of MM owners. :)

Welcome! Woohoo, another fellow Canuck. Enjoy your new ride.

how much did you pay?

$20000 CDN after trade in. It looks like the previous owner used it as a daily driver, lived out of town and never drove it hard. It still has the original KDWS' and there's virtually no wear on the original brakes.

congrads on the new ride. it is awesome. i have a '02 GT convertible and the marauder rides just as nice and i can bring 4 full sized people along for the ride.

If you post your vin one of the other members can run an oasis report for you, it will give you service history as well as in service and build date.

Congrats on your '03 MM and welcome :welcome1: to the MM.Net. :up:

I traded a '94 T-bird when I got my Marauder. :D

Welcome! eh?

So it compares favorably to the 99 cobra in the handling department? That is nice to hear!

From another Canuck, welcome aboard!:welcome1:


PS - I also traded in an MN12 for a Marauder... Mine was a '95 Cougar XR7 (4.6L)... THe MM out-handles & out-accelerates it, with way more space and comfort. Even after a few modifications to the cat, it wasn't even close. There is NOOO going back, is there? ;)

Congrats on your choice. You won 't be disappointed.

[fastblackmerc]

Congrats on your "new" MM & welcome to the board.... I still have my '97 T-Bird.

Welcome to MM world enjoy your visit it will be enlightening!

[Canadasvt]

Welcome! It's good to see a Canadian MM with 73km on her. Sounds like she had all highway mileage. Mine has 13km of hard driving and no problems. I had a '97 T-Bird Sport. I did the whole suspension and tires, but it would have been great with the Marauder 4.6
Do you have winter tires?

99SVT,
Welcome aboard! Good people here and lots of info. Hope you are NOT alergic to Mod Fever, else you are in for some serious illness!

Welcome aboard.

I never had an 81 T-Bird back around 90-91. And it had nothing to do with my Marauder.
