Would you sell your Marauder to get a Camaro??

[Reek09]

As much as I love my car, I think I love the new Camaro even more! I went and looked at one recently and I fell in love all over again. I sat in it and fired it up, and ohh man! The salesman said he could get me in one with no prob, but I just don't want a more expensive car note right now...so I guess ill roll with what I got..for now.

[tbone]

No way in hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BLACKMARAUDER04]

Not unless you gave me an extra $10,000 to purchase another Marauder.

[Reek09]

Lol..I'm prepared to be bashed by asking this question. So I'm ready for it, I can take the punishment.

[blackhueys]

are you high?

[RoyLPita]

.....................nope..... .............................. ...

[justbob]

For a pristeen '69-'73 restomod Camaro? Sure, already contiplating.......

[Bluerauder]

no way in hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

+1 ...........

[SpartaPerformance]

Did you really get a gooooooooood look at the interior of the Camaro? Did you also notice how it's impossible to see out the tiny side windows and huge A pillars? NO WAY!!!!

[TiTo35]

Hell NO!!!

EXACTLY!! Also so HUGE steering wheel and shifter. I also hate the look of the thing. But I would for a 2011 mustang GT

[Juice]

You've lost your wig.

[1 Bad Merc]

Sure -if I wanted a kid's transformer car:)

[fastblackmerc]

Never!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Especially not to buy a piece of GM crap!

[WPG_Merc]

:rofl::agree: What He Said

[jflave]

No way man, don't do it.

[Ms. Denmark]

Plus they're a dime a dozen. I'll stick with my low production, slightly mysterious and oh so beautiful Marauder. I had a 15 year old kid at the Cruise night walk right past all the Cameros and brand new Mustangs to ask me about my car and shake my hand after saying "I didn't know an American car maker could make such a beautiful machine!" :cool:

[PonyUP]

I would totally do this trade if the car tranformed into a robot and came with Megan Fox, other than that, I'll stick with my Fords

[Bluerauder]

Plus they're a dime a dozen.

Well, in that case .... I'll take a quarters worth. ;)

[MO Merc]

Rule #1 Never Chevy over Ford. What was you thinking ?

[Peter]

The 2010 Camaro is cramped, has poor visibility and overpriced even with GMS. No thank you.

[tbone]

Lately every time I drive my car someone makes a comment about it, and it's always a good one.

[twin03]

I do not think so.....

[DOOM]

FUKKK no!!! :down:

[Mr. Man]

Yenko or a COPO maybe. Regular 2010 No. I do like the extreme green color though. We got one that comes to the local cruise nite.

[boatmangc]

Its a dog ugly wanna be retro ride, If I were to trade for a new Pony car it would be the new 5.0 Stang
But before I did the swap on any of them I would have to spend 9-10 hours seat time and see if I need EMTs to get me out at the other end.
Now about the Megan Fox inclusion, you can keep the robot stuff but I might consider the Camaro and the EMT treatment if she were part of the deal!!

[-Matt-]

**** no.... maybe for a 2011 shelby though

[Spectragod]

Sure.... right after I finish smoking this rock...........

[RR|Suki]

is yours NA? If so I don't see why not, have at it.

You're right, don't need the robot, but Megan Fox? Oh hell yeah!!!, but something tells me she'd prefer a Marauder, there's a much bigger back seat

[Local Boy]

I'll pass on the Camaro...after all it's a girls car...

Aloha

[Kennyrauder]

I just got my upfront experience with our first Mustang 5.0 Great we all need this great car.

[Maraudermike1]

As someone who has 2 faast mustangs, don't do it. The Marauder is truely an awesome car and they simply don't make cars like these anymore. It won't be the same, you'll regret it. Not worth it....or the car payment.

[bawazir]

After seeing Zack e85 kenny bell Cobra thiking to sell my Marauder for a down payment for an 04 cobra one day :)

[4drcbra]

NO WAY !!!!!! I felt bad for riding in a new cobra with a friend while he test drove it... He ended up trading his 02 gt for a DTR

[FastMerc]

What the ................. Are you nuts!!! :D

[Zack]

Id rather crap out a pile of razor blades than be seen in a new Camaro.

[Big Black Beast]

Personally, I don't care for the new Camaro very much. I actually kind of thought it was okay at first, but the more I see it, the less I like it. It looks way too toy-like to me. Like a 15 year old kids idea of a race/muscle car. And the aftermarket stuff makes it look even worse. The interior is absolutely retarded. It looks like a robot threw up, then exploded, then threw up again inside the car. Yeah, even a new V6 Camaro is a match for a stock Marauder, but if you just want FAST, there are alot of other options out there (the afore-mentioned Mustang being a good example). Anyway, if you really want to see for yourself, test drive one. Tell us what you think.

[4play]

I like the engine in the camaro, thats it.

[hotford]

Fuk no!!!!!!!!!

[Bluerauder]

And the Survey says .......

NO !!!!!!!!!!!!

[CBT]

Trade for new Camaro, no. I would trade for a used Cobra or Shelby first, and I'm not even a 'stang fan.

[Egon Spengler]

I too am at a cross roads. I need to decide whether I should keep my beat up marauder, or sell it / trade to get something a little more practical for my commute to work etc. I am sure I would miss the comforts of the marauder though.

As for trading for a Camaro, no way in hell! I sat in one at a dealership and I hated how it felt to sit in and I hated the windows. I wouldn't do it.

[jabird56]

are you freakin' nuts? Hell no!!!

[LordVader]

No...not in my future. I have said it before I might get another car (Mustang), but I am keeping the MM. I have had this one car longer than any other car in my life and it never gets old. Its rare and people always comment on it.

Ka-pow! Well said, Sir.

[Vortex]

I dont see how anyone over 6ft tall caneven fit inside one. My head was in the headliner with the seat all the way back. If I was to pick between the Mustang/Camaro/Challenger Id go with the Challenger but frankly, Id rather just keep the Marauder.

[LIGHTNIN1]

No way I would put out hard earned money on a new Camaro. Ugly and it is a Government Motors car which I will not own. I just sold a Jag which was a great car. Either that or a Mustang. Burn the Camaros.:flamer:

[jonroe]

I guess the Camaro is a capable car but it is ugly and does nothing for me. So, no.

I might consider it for a Shelby Mustang though!

[Egon Spengler]

Sorry, but my girlfriend loves the bumblebee from the Transformers, so when she heard there was one at the car show last weekend, she requested I take some pics of it for her! Here she is!

"Pretty, I feel pretty! I feel pretty and happy and gaaaaaaay! Oh, look! 5 other new Camaros!"

Man get the 2011 mustang. The camaro has absolutely no room in it. They look good but come on. Just put a blower on the rauder.

+2!

I thought that they looked 'OK' when I first saw them, but the new Camaro is by far the worst looking of the 3 retro-pony cars offered.

The interior is a friggin' mess:
Those 2 huge "snorkle mask" gauges and then the 4 little, "I can't read them buggers way down there" gauges in the console....WTF?
If you want to be retro, use retro ideas that made sense and were functional!
Don't shove all the auxillary gauges down on the console "because it looks 60s retro".
The radio looks like they grabbed it out of a Toyota Celica and molded it into the dash....:puke:

Have you opened the "trunk" yet?
Try to fit a folding chair and a cooler in that squirrel hole....:shake:

BTW; They are HUGE!
If you want a big car.......stick with a rare, only to get rarer Marauder!

Would you sell your Marauder to get a Camaro??
'reek09' asked as he set his crack pipe down, leaned back, and waited for the firestorm of responses.

[ckadiddle]

I like the exterior look of the new camaro, I see one in the garage at work, as well as the new challenger. The only thing that really makes me drool is a Mustang GT 500 or the Ford GT. I like Chevys and others just fine. All the above are waaaay outta my price range, and either would have to be fitted with an automatic transmission for me. All the above would need to be in addition to owning a Marauder or other panher for comfort though. Current plan long term is to pay off the MM (again!) and perhaps take out a wee loan for supercharger and a couple other doohickeys after ESP runs out. :-)

Thanks for starting this thread..you guys are cracking me up today and I need it BADLY.

[GAMike]

I might for a 2011 mustang GT ...

That is, if I was in the market:)

[dreydin]

i sold my Marauder, so my answer doesnt really count... but heres a good twist on the question in my case...


right now, would i buy a new Camaro or a 03-04 Marauder? umm, MARAUDER!! :D

[RF Overlord]

While I'm glad Chevrolet decided to finally build the Camaro (being that it has CORRECT-wheel drive :up: ), I would never get rid of the Marauder unless it were wrecked beyond repair. Even then, I would probably look at the Challenger first.

[a_d_a_m]

Already plenty of Camaros on the road, so hell no I wouldn't sell my MM. I rarely see MM's around here.

If I were to buy a pony car, you can bet it'd be an '11 Mustang, which outperforms the Dodge and Chevy 'competitors' in just about every category.

Thanks Leo! I am sure she will enjoy them!

[Ktorres1]

Lol I for one can say it's the first time I actually like a camaro as I've always like the common telephone pole mustang more. I like much of the new camaro as far as styling, interior etc but I'd rather a 2011 Shelby and maybe the amazing new 5.0! Now the marauder is only one, power, comfort, performance with class all wrapped in room for 5! Once you've gotten a tune on your marauder and 4.10's like many suggest here and you got one bad A$$ car!!

[LeoVampire]

Thanks Leo! I am sure she will enjoy them!

Your welcome when he is around again I will take better pictures of it for you!

[Egon Spengler]

That car is pretty crazy!

[LeoVampire]

That car is pretty crazy!

He is a rich Asian man and has 8 cars he brings to shows each one a differnt week.

Every single car has been very customized and stay in a heated and cooled garage.

But he is a great guy to talk to very friendly and quick to get something for you and your car if he finds it and it's unique.

[MarauderVOL]

NO. If I was going 2 get rid of my marauder i'd get the new Mustang GT 5.0. Took my Marauder in for service last week and as I stepped out of the car had a guy ask me if it was for sale? I was like...NO..but it sure makes a Marauder owner feel proud..I love this car.

[Canadasvt]

I find the Camaro very ugly and too big/heavy for a pony car. Now the 2012 Boss 302 would kick my MM out of my driveway, or at least continue as my DD.

[3CzSCrewHead*]

not unless you gave me an extra $10,000 to purchase another marauder.

Agree but marauder is the best that can beat the rest

[uwsacf]

Now I'm confused..

The MSRT will have to suffice as my "camaro"

Maybe a Viper later

As much as I love my car, I think I love the new Camaro even more! I went and looked at one recently and I fell in love all over again. I sat in it and fired it up, and ohh man!

HELL NO... Our MARAUDERS are way c00ler! If you want more supercharge your car.:burnout:

[knine]

Camaros are ugly and obnixious. The MM is the only way to go.

[JOEMERC]

No way i love my silver birch,plus you see a camaro at every red light.i go months with out seeing another marauder.i do like the challenger srt-8 or new 5.0 mustangs though.

For a new Camaro? In a word, no!

[biodole]

Is this thread serious?

comparing the marauder to the new camaro is like comparing Megan Fox to Paul Prudhomme.

I don't even know where to start.

My brain is leaking out of my ears after hearing such heresy.

I had one of each back in highschool.

[Vortex]

I wouldnt trade my 6 year old Marauder for a brand new Camaro today. A Plum Crazy Challenger Classic R/T with a 6 speed and stripe delete, sure, but not for the Camaro. (Yeah, I know you cant get a Plum Crazy Challenger R/T with a 6 speed... :( )

[LURCCH]

no way!! i can honestly say ive always wanted a marauder when i seen one in 03. but cant say i ever really cared aboutn camaros. it kinda kills the cool factor of a car when u see one every 10 seconds while driving. for a buick regal GNX i would in a heart beat though

[thathotrodlincn]

What part of NO is not understood?

[guspech750]

I would for a 2002 ZL-1 Camaro and maybe a 1997 LT-4 Camaro SS. Thats it.

[dakslim]

No way!!!! My 7 year old Marauder still turns heads...I don't see any Camaro doin' that! Would you even bother finding out what number sequence your car is?:shake: Didn't think so!

Um, I bothered when I had my 02 Z28 convertible...I figured since it was the last year and some rare options I'd wanna know where it stood in terms of production. The closest I got was 1 of about 2100ish. Now, had it been an SS I would've known the EXACT numbers since those were farmed out to SLP. I'm with guspech750 though, those are the rarest of the rare, only 69 ZL-1s were made. Not sure how many LT-4s but it's not like there aren't 15 Marauders for sale at any given time :dunno:

There were 106 LT-4's built. I think 6 went to Canada and 1 to the Middle East. There was also the Project Pumpkin SS with a 383 LT-1 too. Check it out up close. http://inventory.bestofshowautomotive .com/CarDetails_sold_post2010.asp?V IN=131939

Gosh I miss my 97 Camaro SS:( Good times and some darn nice trophies from the Chevyvette Fest.

[Doohicky]

Comparing apples to oranges. I bought the MM because I wanted a full sized 4 door rear wheel drive V8. I also have a 91 Z28. Would I trade that for a new one? Not likely. Trade it for a Mustang, probably not..but...a Challenger SRT Super Bee...for the "Right Price"!!!

No...not in my future. I have said it before I might get another car (Mustang), but I am keeping the MM. I have had this one car longer than any other car in my life and it never gets old. Its rare and people always comment on it.
Not saying anything bad, just curious that you are 59 and have had only 1 car for 6 years. I had a 56 Ford PU for 16 1/2 years, a 71 Nova for 12 (traded in for Z) 91 Z28 for 18 1/2 years (and still counting) and the MM for 7 (and still counting).
