I will be getting very soon a 2003 (300A) Maurader with 45,500 miles on the clock. Check is in hand, Insurance cards are ready. I just have to go get it!!! It has a full size spare, the trunk organizer and a CD changer I think, so I assume it's a 300A

Those are actual pictures of my car! Geesh anticipation is a beotch.

Wanted to say hi. I'm sure I'll have questions - like is that box a CD Changer next to the spare???

Welcome aboard! The box next to the spare is the OEM sub woofer. Where upstate are you?

Hey Thanks for the welcome. I'm just north of Syracuse.

Sounds like we're pretty close.

The CD changer would be on the left rear side inside the trunk.
Quick checks for 300A,is the clock in the center of the dash or in the radio? Are there map pockets on the front of the front seats? Does it have traction control? Moonroof? Heated seats?
If yes to the first two it should be a 300A,if yes to any of the last 3 it's probably a 300B.

Hey there. Yes it does have the clock, I didn't see the map pockets. It is suppose to have heated seats but I'm not sure, as I haven't seen the car "face to face" where is the button to turn on and off heated seats?

Beside the power 8-way seat controls.

You'll love the Marauder - even after three years I grin when I get to take it out of the garage - there are things in life you never wanna look back and say "I wish I did that" - well you did and will not regret it.

Well I got the car!

LOVE IT -- LOVE IT -- LOVE IT

I got it WITH a 3 year 36,000 mile FORD extended power train warranty.

Totally Stock, has 6 disc CD changer - Trunk Organizer - Tires have about 80% tread life on them.

Shifts smooth, pulls great, Just wow. It's sexy - It's refined - It's BAD ASS!!

Love the sound of the Factory tuned Exhaust. Ride and handing are suburb. Still smells and looks new inside. One owner car, got serviced at the dealer I bought it from. Full service records. I got a really great deal on this car too. (no I won't say as I don't want to piss anyone off - lol)

God what a beautiful machine.

Congrats Eric! It sounds like it was better than you expected. I have a dealership near me that is mod friendly (within reason of course) if you ever need it. Doh, :bigcry: I wish it was time to get mine out. I did visit her yesterday.

Welcome...that is so true. The marauder was the only car worthy of me getting another car payment, which I haven't had in 7+yrs. You're gonna love it and the ride home.

Hi All! -- I have owned a 2002 P71 for about 5 years now. And love the full size & power of the car. I realized recently what I *really* wanted was a Maurader! (duh) :)

I will be getting very soon a 2003 (300A) Maurader with 45,500 miles on the clock. Check is in hand, Insurance cards are ready. I just have to go get it!!! It has a full size spare, the trunk organizer and a CD changer I think, so I assume it's a 300A

I come from a 2002 Police Crown Vic that has 118,000 original miles, I put about 60,000 miles on it in 5 years.

I know Embassy, Derek (Drock), Tom and Metro(plex) and quite a few others from crownvic.net -- over there I'm "luv_my_2002_p71"
