We just acquired a 2003 80K black/charcoal Marauder. :) WooHoo!

Our 95 townie s*** the bed, so we needed a new 4door for a daily driver.
We wanted something that was sportier,still a full frame car, newer in yrs, rack&pinion,dark leather interior, less than 100K miles...etc.
We naturally gravitated toward the 2003+ Marquis,vic,P71s.
Checked out a bunch, and decided the marauder package fit the bill the best.
Hunted down a deal suprisingly quick.
Found one near my home town across the state which I had my best man look at for me. He said if I didn't want it, he'd buy it,lol. ....So I bought it. haha.

I'll be sure to post pics after a good detailing.

Cheers! Brad

Exactly the reasons we got ours and have loved every minute of it. An
absolutely trouble free car so far too. Rochester huh, my wife lived there
about 40 years ago. Welcome.

Welcome to some great times in your MM.
I think you will love the car...bet you cannot EVEN leave it alone after a while...
but whether you start modifying it or leave it stock...this website is a great resource for any and all information marauder.
Congrats on your decision to go maraudering.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone,
I think we will really enjoy the car.... assuming I get to drive it ever,lol. It'll be my wifes daily driver mostly....I'll just be the one making sure it looks/runs it's best at all times.... kinda the way things go around here, I guess haha.

To answer a few questions about the town car-
it is/was a 95 signature with the touring suspension
Unfortunately it only made it to 135K before it sucked "a little" antifreeze into the forward most cylinder on the left bank (#5?) and hydrolocked the motor. I'll swap out the motor someday, but my wife needed a car now so we bought the Marauder.
