What would you label The Marauder?

[Motorhead350]

Alright first off this has to do with the type of car, not your cars name. (if is has one.) I would not call the Marauder a muscle car because it has 4 doors and no chrome bumpers, I wouldn't call it a luxary car because I think it's too fast to be called that, I don't think it's a sport sedan because it can't handle as well as a BMW. I can think of many things to not call it, but wouldn't know what to call it. I just say Black Sedan or 4 Door Black Top (I bet you can guess what I ripped off on that one.) So what would you call this car hua?

[Marauderjack]

STREET BEAST??:bows:

[Gre8one7]

its just a plain sleeper lol. Dunno how many times i have heard "Hes going to race that?!" and "Nice grand marquis"

[BAD MERC]

I call it RARE and UNIQUE. And....... NOT FOR SALE!!

[STLR FN]

I call it mine. Otherwise a performance sedan?????

[KillJoy]

It's a Saloon.

[fastblackmerc]

I call it mine. Otherwise a performance sedan?????
How about HIGH Performance Luxury sedan?

[BK_GrandMarquis]

Being fast shouldn't keep it from being called a luxery sedan. There are plenty of Mercedes or BMW's that are fast. High end Infiniti's and Lexus' are fast too.

I think that it's not as plush or have as many ammenities would keep it out of the luxury category.

[RoyLPita]

In a class by itself.

[Vortex]

Executive express.

[STLR FN]

A 4100lb 4V 4.6L (insert your HP here) HP 4dr sedan that just whooped your candy ass (insert vehicle of choice here) <INSERT here choice of vehicle>.

[RoyLPita]

[Bluerauder]

It's just an Old Man's Car with pretty wheels !! :rolleyes: Just thought that I'd get that out there before Lisa checks in ..... :rofl:

Kinda like a Grand Marquis Super Sport, but different !!! ;)

[RoyLPita]

:pimp: Money Pit

That was the name of my 1988 T-Bird sport.

[blackf0rk]

It's definately not anything close to luxury. c'mon guys.

[ckadiddle]

[TAF]

Mines a Performance Touring Sedan....

No 1/4 mile runs for me...this thing was meant to be DRIVEN!!!!

[MENINBLK]

I don't think it's a sport sedan because it can't handle as well as a BMW.

A BMW can handle ???
Since when ?

[mcb26]

reincarnated moonshine runner :beer:

[LordVader]

;) I call it "Bait", because it let's me hook some poor sucker and reel him in when I'm ready!

[ridinclean]

I usually refer to it as a High Performance Sedan, Beast, Sleeper, or if someone says hey what is that? I reply "it will hurt your feelings thats all you need to know." :burnout:

[junior]

My wife calls it a cop car on steroids. :beatnik:

[duhtroll]

It's a muscle car. So what if it has 4 doors? Muscle cars were standard platforms stuffed with bigger, more powerful engines. That seems to be what we have with a bit of bling added.

Some muscle cars did have four doors, IIRC.

[SergntMac]

"Power couch"

[Rider90]

For me I'd say a sleeper. Any Marauder enthusiast from the outside still thinks I have the 302 HP...heh...

[Smokie]

I called it "Fords best kept secret", on a more personal level I call it "Smokie"

the info below tells it better than words.

[04MRADR]

My buddy at work saw it the first morning I owned it and dubbed it "The Black Monster." I agree it isn't a muscle car, road car, touring car, whatever. There is really nothing like a Marauder. As I've said many times since becoming a member I've had a lot of people stare at the car and ask me what kind of car is that. The complements are always real and always positive. Since the DVD and the Speed Channel advertised its a great car for cruising at 70 mph, maybe we should dub it a "Road Muscle Car." I can attest to how I can move effortlessly around slow cars on the turnpike (not carelessly) and pass anything with ease. That's why "Road Muscle Car" maybe is better. Normally, muscle cars are associated with drag racing and the only negative I have ever found in the car is as stock, it does not get out from a dead stop very quick. My vote is either "Road Muscle Car" or "Open Road Muscle Car."

[rayjay]

Boulevard Crusier.

[jimlam56]

I call it mine. Otherwise a performance sedan?????
I agree.
Next question:
What could you replace it with???:confused:

[duhtroll]

Replace it with? Nothing.

Add to the list when the time comes?

Challenger.

Camaro.

[NATEHAWK]

"The Ruler" aka "Black Ceasar"

[Blue03]

My vote is either "Road Muscle Car" or "Open Road Muscle Car."

I think your on the right track... I think I'll use just "Road Car" ... avoids the debate about what kind of muscle it is:rolleyes: ... Should go well with, Road Trip, Road House and the like...:D

[Mike Poore]

That's easy .....TURNPIKE CRUISER. :)

[DEFYANT]

Ego Collector

While showing the MM to a friend, he commented "Thats a big trunk!"

I replied, " Yeah, I know - I need it to carry all the egos I've collected" :D

[SamF]

Hooligan Sedan

[magindat]

It's a Saloon.

KillJoy

I second that.

[magindat]

Could you go get my car? Yeah, it's the one right over there. You know, the one that says Bad Mutha ******a on it."

[seabreeze]

To me, it's the family-haulin' Four-Door Mustang.

[ctrlraven]

I call it a 4-dr Cobra, others call it a Ma-rude-er then I proceed to keep my pimp hand strong across their face for saying it :lol:

[Paul T. Casey]

My Hot Rod, (the other one) :rolleyes:

[gpfarrell]

I think MUSCLE SEDAN fits...

but "Hot Rod Mercury" really raises some eyebrows!

[gpfarrell]

A BMW can handle ???
Since when ?

I'll be glad to take you around a road course in my 7-year-old, 133,00mile station wagon if you'd like to learn how BMWs handle. Though BMWs rarely have the highest hp numbers or the quickest 0-60 time, I think you'll find yourself in the minority if you say they handle poorly.

[Bluerauder]

I never did understand a BMW Station Wagon. :rolleyes: Ain't that sort of like a Ferrari Pick-Up truck?? ;) Sounds conflicted to me. :o

[Steve_NC]

"Power couch"



HAHAHAH I like that! I am going to use that one. The car gets alot of looks, but noone ever knows what it is. There are not alot of "car geeks" around here so I just tell them its a special edition Mercury Grand Marquis.

[Motorhead350]

[TAF]

My Hot Rod, (the other one) :rolleyes:

[ckadiddle]

I just tell them it's cop car on steroids. :D

[BigGuyBigCar]

Yeah, for the uninformed and uncaring, when they ask "What is it"?" I just say it's a cop car.

Otherwise they think it's a repainted taxi.

[BUCKWHEAT]

My wife calls it a fat man's hot rod. I call it the "Pigmobile 8"

[BlownBlass]

I've referred to it as a "Grand Marquis on steroids" and my "Hitmans car".

[David Morton]

It's a Police Interceptor INTERCEPTOR. It's what we use to catch rogues that have stolen police cars.:lol:


Or, for the Dungeons & Dragons crowd It's a Police Inteceptor +2.

+1 for Hit damage (speed) and +1 for armor (comfort).

[Marauder2005]

A Big Bad Bit*h!

[Marauder2005]

How about "An Orgasm On Wheels"

LMAO :lol: :lol:
