Hey all, I don't have a marauder (juss 18 and cant aford one, but one day I hope...), but I LOVE them lol, anyways, my uncle has one, and here goes the questions. I havent seen him for awhile (til 2day) and when I pulled up, there were Enkeis on the Marauder. I was thinkin wtf then I saw roush badges. I asked him about it and he said he sent it to roush and its gotta chip and supercharger now. Unfortunately he was leaving as I pulled up, so I didn't get to verify, but I told him to "get on it" as he was leaving, and the car went like all hell (I mean it was fast stock anyway) but it def seemed even faster than b4, but I cant find anything about Roush SC a marauder, so is this true, or is he pulling my leg???

Don't know...could be true...or he may have just bought some badges.
Let me ask you this....
Is he the kinda uncle that asks you to pull his finger, as well :lol:

How is THIS possible? As Enkie doesn't make a wheel that actually FITS our cars?

I promise the enkeis are true....they're 5 spoke and the spokes are kinda split, and they're silver. he said they're the ones roush put on with the package. Im gonna try to get pics this weekend so you all can see, but I may not have time. I really do swear on this though. Anyways, it may not help, but I'll call him later and ask what model enkei they are. They look smaller than the 18s that came factory, so i'm guessin they're 17s. then again they might just look smaller bc they're so much more understated then the big chromes.

Just tell unkie to check in here, K? If he's driving what you want us to believe he's driving, this is his home, and the street lights are on.
You found us easy enough once unkie did the wild thang to his MM...Sup?

Funny this should come up now. Last week, I sent an E-mail to Roush regaurding the Marauder. Here ya go.
Q:
I was wondering is there wil be anything from Roush for the Marauder? I know that it is concidereda nitch car, but we are ravenous for proven performance parts.
Thank you

Philip,
We don't have anything for the Marauder as of yet. However, we are expanding our parts program, and you're right, I get a lot of questions from Marauder owners asking if we've got anything for them! We are looking to produce parts for vehicles we don't necessarily produce as full vehicle packages, and the Marauder would be a good candidate.
Thanks,
Casey Mier
I'm not saying it's NOT a Roush car, but if it is then Roush's left hand isn't telling it's right hand whats going on.

I have no idea what this reply means lol.
MAD3R - See I haven't been able to find anything out about a Roush MM either, other than Int/Ext packages. Anyways, I'll find out if he's BS'ing or not about the SC soon. He is a prankster lol, but the car seemed pretty damn fast, and louder than I remember, but then again I rarely see him or his MM, so I can't remember exactly what it was like b4 either. All I know is he claims Roush loaded it up, it has the badges, so I believed him at first. I still haven't been able to get ahold of him, but I'm tryin (w/o seemin like a stalker for a nephew lol). Imma go take pics tomorrow tho, so even if he's not home, the MM might be and I can at least prove the Enkeis.

Get a pic, scan it or do what you do. Try to resize it to 400x600, still works otherwise, it'll just be HUGE. Upload the pic into THIS THREAD by using the quote button on anyones reply. You may delete the quote and write what you like, and you will see a choice to "attach file" below the reply box. Click on "browse" and find the (picture) file on your computer. Double click the image and it's directory and file name will show up in the "attach file" box. Submit your reply....and by god...we get to see 'unkies' car :banana:

If I recall correctly, Enkie does have some rims with a super high offset that fit the MM's. But "ANY" compnay, with enough $$$ like from Roush, can make you any rim in any offset you want.
I got a quote from a company to make Cobra R's with the exact offset needed for Crown Vics.....but obviously for a price. :)
A Gentleman with a KB Crown Vic that lives in CT has Momo rims on his car that were only originally designed for European luxuxy sports cars. Well, KB got the custom made for him after Momo saying "You wanna put them on a what????????" :D
Why don't you just drop on down with him and start pushing. :D
That's what she said!
