So I just sold my completely stock 04 Silver Birch w/118K miles for just under $10K. I did do some recent work like timing chain tensioners/guides, cam cover gaskets, OEM radiator, trans flush, rear diff flush, rebuilt the EATC, new Blower Control Module, Ford Audiophile 6 disc in dash receiver, added trunk organizer, new floor mats from Redline Tuning.

Negatives on the car were several dings/scratches on body and several cig burn marks in visor/headliner from previous idiot owner as well as 2 fairly large tears in drivers seat. Also LCM was going bad which I disclosed to new owner.

I sold it using Auto Trader and did not list it here because there are currently several cars for sale here that are nicer than my car for less or the same money. My point is that our MM's are worth more than some people on here think and I believe they will do nothing but go up from here. I sold mine as I'm currently selling all my cars (65 GTO on eBay right now & 70 Chevelle SS soon) to start up a new business.

I will buy another MM once my biz is up & running. I do want to thank everyone for all the help & guidance on this site which allowed me to do most of the work on my MM myself. This is a great site, MM's are great cars and you all seem like a great group of people...thanks!

Why post a thread in the For Sale section when you already sold it? lol

I agree the for-sale thread bashing needs to stop.

Not bashing the for-sale thread, just admonishing the few people on here that seem to want to undervalue Marauders when others are trying to sell. Sorry if I posted in the wrong spot...

Thanks, getting my dealers license to sell cars, just internet sales for now. I may be too honest to be a used car dealer as I can't sell someone a car without fixing all known defects or disclosing them. Hoping that honesty will have value for customers.

I agree with you. I was referring to the people who are ruining for-sale threads by commenting on too high of a price.

+1000% If I was in a big hurry to sell, and didn't care about the money, I would post here. Otherwise, no WAY would I sell here because of totally lame comments people make on the values. Thanks for pointing this out and good work on your sale!:beer:

Thanks for posting up the details of your sale. It's helpful to know what our cars sell for. :cool:

sorry you have to sell all your cars, but best of luck to you on starting the business. (Hope you can get another 'rauder after a while)
