If you don't know what Jalopnik is, its the only automotive blog I've found that has something called "humor" and isn't run by accountants or treehuggers.

Project Car Hell is this ongoing segment where people vote for what would be the coolest...and most hellish...project car. What a 5 year old Marauder is doing on there I have no idea.

But vote for the Marauder, or we're less cool than a BMW 850i.

Someone should point they have the wrong flag for the Marauder.

Heh I remember Jalopnik editor posting on CVN because he is a Panther fan. He was asking for submissions of cool, modded Panthers. I think they had Lightning powered Crown Vic on there last year.

Welcome to Project Car Hell (http://jalopnik.com/tag/choose-your-eternity/), where you choose your eternity by selecting the project that's the coolest... and the most hellish! Yesterday, we had the chance to choose between two potential moonshine runners, with either of which one might keep bread on the table during the coming Financiapocalypse (http://economy.consumerist.com/), and the Mercury Maruader beat the BMW 850i (http://jalopnik.com/5061316/pch-financiapocalypse-moonshine-runner-edition-mercury-marauder-or-bmw-850i) like Junior Johnson beat the North Carolina Highway Patrol's '53 Ford Mainlines back in the day.

By a margin of 6% and only 67 votes

2003 Mercury Marauder

53.0% (593 votes)

1991 BMW 850i

47.0% (526 votes)

Gentlemen, it may be safe to say that we helped tip the balance and kudos to you Black03 for bring this to the site
