I am still toying with buying an MM. Is it worth waiting for the 04's ?

Does anybody know of any significant changes or upgrades ?

Unless you just have to have a red Marauder, just buy one now.
You have three colour choices.

The only other difference I've read for the '04 is the Premium stereo becomes an option.

Well I have not bought one yet....but I am going to.....Probably in over the next 90 days.....How many colors total will there be in 2004? Are they only adding red?

I test drove one and man just fell in love...i have been a big Impala SS fan....and have kicked myseld everyday that I never got one.....But another big problem is that I have had a lot of success with Ford cars....I have had 86 Cougar RX7 with the 5.0, THunderbird LX with the 5.0, Ford F150 with the 4.6 V8 for the last 5 years...they have all been great cards.....By dad had a Crown Vic Touring Sedan back in 91 and that was a great car....

I am looking forward to enjoying this puppy for years to come....

Toreador Red is supposed to be the next color released, last I heard it would be in the fall. As far as what comes after that...
I wouldn't be surprised if even Ford doesn't know, at this point. This car has had a very weird sales history...such as it is.

Personally I am really digging the blue...and I think that will be the color I go with.....I have had a red Ford F150 and I think I have had it with red for bit....but seeing the MM in red might throw a wrench in that plan..... ;)

I used to drive a red Grand Marquis for a company car 99 model. I used to get compliments on the color (from old people) I never liked it. My motto is if it is red it better be waaaay fast. Black is my choice for the Panther car.

Sorry, but I for one do not understand any fence sitting this late in the game unless you are waiting for a color. These cars are incredible values in the $27- 29 K range.

Marauder57, from the 2004 draft order guide, it looks like Blue is replaced by red. So if it's blue you want, get it now!

AAARRRGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

The blue is being replaced? What are they trying to do to me!! Long story short I am about 60-90 days off from making my purchase.

Now what the heck am I gonna do....are they done making the blue right now?

Dang.... :mad2:

BTW where can I see the new 2004 draft?

Read the thread. Some people reported a dead link for the Order Guide. SergtMAC has a copy downloaded. PM him for a copy, if you have any problems.
