If you bought a Marauder in 2002, I would like to know if you still own the car. Are you glad you still have it, or is it a case of good riddance???

I am trying to get an insight on a couple of things, how many folks feel the car is a keeper and also how many members from the early days are still around and check in from time to time.

There are no good or bad guys here, ok? This is just to get an idea who has moved on and who is still around; car wise and membership wise.

Got mine in early 03 - but that doesn't help you. Just adding my "name" here because mine's 3 years old and I'm keeping it. :)

I can go to membership list and look up members from 2002 and those that bought back them, the info is available....is only a matter of how much I want to dig.:D

Purchased Dec 02, 30,000 smiles and still got the grin. I lived thru the blues smoke and won. Best 28k I ever spent. Met many a screen name, met a few at meets. A good time all in all!

Bill Karrow and I both purchased our Marauders the first week of June 2002. I went on to build my Marauder on my own, Bill engaged Kenny Brown to build the first ever supercharged Marauder, the "1x" Marauder of Car and Driver and AutoWeek fame.

Just about a year later, in May of '03, I sold my Marauder (to CarMax) and bought Bill's #1x through Kenny Brown. I still own this wonderful automobile, and my first Marauder is now owned by our friend and member here, "Austin-tatious".

In December of 2005, I bought my third Marauder, my beloved bone stock silver birch 300B Marauder, my "#3" car.

I've said it before here, I may change VINs, but I will always own a Marauder.

Bought mine in August 2002, still own it and love every one of the 86756 miles I put on it!

Bought mine in December 2002 and received the $3,500 rebate.....
Traded in a really nice 2 year old Nissan Pathfinder with the 240hp DOHC V6. Best car decision I ever made!

I love this car!!!

What other big 4 door sedan turns heads like a Marauder???

What other big AMERICAN sedan gets the :2thumbs: from Ricers, as mine did yesterday while cruising up I-95 in Maryland?

What other sedan has that BAD A$$ forward 'rake', 18" polished rims, dual 3" chrome pipes?

Did I say that my Marauder will stay in my pocession for a LONGGGGG TIME?

John I went to member list and clicked on "Join Date" it gives you a list that starts with Logan and I just followed the pages (50 entries per page) to page 7 were less than half-way thru the join date changes to 2003.

Maybe list is incomplete or Logan has purged it, I joined in Sept. 2002 and my number is 248. Maybe Mary or Logan can explain discrepancy.:D Javier
