I understand both points of view, but to me its as if a part of the Marauder lives on at ford...

It may make them less special, but at least maybe the price will come down.

Are they forged, or just cheaper versions of what we have?

They are forged wheels just like ours. They had so many left over because they cut the Marauder from production.

I doubt it. there wouldn't be that many left. I'm working on getting part numbers for both.

Yes but the centre cap area is machined differently and Marauder caps won't fit correctly.

They are the best constructed and only forged wheels offered for the Mustang. Odd just for the V6 as a factory option.

You can of course buy them separately as an accessory wheel for any Mustang.

I swung by a local Ford dealer last night just to see what they had on the lot and most of the V6's they had the "Pony Package" which includes the 18" MM wheels. I thought they would of only been on the GT. To me they just don't look right on the Mustang.

I believe the part numbers are the same.

Those weren't a factory option last year, it was only a Ford Accessory option. I guess they are sending them off the line with em now too :(
