[guspech750]

Ahhhh yes. I remember this car. It has been for sale for a long time. The owner was asking $40,000 at one time.

Doubtful that it's @ 16lbs of boost with a stock Trilogy pulley. It's a low mile car, with a S/C, big brakes and other supporting mods. The price seems fair, fair enough I talked it over with the wife as a consideration for a second Marauder.

So, what are 12k mile Marauders bringing these days, bone stock? Then add up the mods.........

Sounds like he may have put different pulleys on it: "... Billet Aluminum Pulley System With 16 lbs Of Boost...".

Gotta agree, low mileage car, looks clean. Might be a tad spendy, but a guy can always negotiate.

Like I said in a previous post about this, I have 3k more than his asking in my motor. Spendy.......maybe, maybe not, would need to see the car in person to make a better judgement call, for all we know, it may very well have a forged motor in it, if I get a chance today, I'll call the guy and get the particulars.

And his price is a starting point, money talks, bull#$it runs a marathon.

Yup. Keep us posted, sounds like this could be a really nice one to pick up.

[Shaijack]

Darren I am shipping you the $30,000.00 you asked for. Sign reciept and forward reciept back to me. OR we could go to Vegas and turn it into $3 million. Up to you..

I'm afraid to total up all the money I've spent for mods and repairs on my car since buying it used, bone stock....... :eek:

[ChiTownMaraud3r]

I don't know why 03 04 cobras can hold their value and still sell for $26k+ these days, yet everyone here laughs at a clean low mileage supercharged Marauder that is priced at more than $8k...

REALLY?

YEP. $40,000 is steep, but $27,000 is not outrageous with the miles and mods.

I hear ya. See what it really has done to it and go from there.....

[Baaad GN]

$17,000/$20,000! Just my guess, My GN is worth $75,000 with the low mileage and all the years of work, and I'd sell for that! Oh I thought about OBO after the $75,000 but might get a good offer! Sooooooooo not gonna do that!

[Baaad GN]

Hey what will a bank give ya now? The rest will have to be cash!

Talked with the fella selling it for the owner, the pulley system is what came with the Trilogy kit, and I know that only makes 9lbs of boost. The motor is stock, the mods are listed.

He did tell me that the owner is elderly, and babies the car. A quick OASIS turned up nothing service wise, I would expect some dried out seals and what not.

If some one wants the VIN to do a carfax on, PM me, I'll get it to you. I can tell you it was built 6-25-2002 and the in service date is 12-21-2002.

[lji372]

Sounds a little too rich just my 2 cents.....

::confused: Wonder where he came up with the stuff about the "billet flow pulley system and the big boost? :confused:

Yeah, 9 lbs with a stock pulley set up is right.

Still sounds like a nice car, but as you say, could be some issues with seals, etc. and as an early 300A build, prolly has soft axles.

[marauder410]

if i had to money to just blow i would buy this MARAUDER in a heart beat only 12k miles and already has headers/ full exhaust

has all the good on it already and already has the no more found trilogy superchargers on it WOWW

NOT to big of a fan of the red striping around but OVERALL love itttt

i mean really this might be in the top 10 for lowest milage marauder in the STATES period

IN MY OPINION 20k-25k would be a steal for this super clean already boosted 12,000 miles rare car

[Motorhead350]

One word.

Demand.

[GAMike]

Its nothing new what drives car prices up or down.... Supply/Demand/ and informed opinion........ What is new and refreshing is the membership finally understanding that they don't need to be so da#$ authoritative on pricing.........

Let the buyer and seller come together at what ever price they settle on.... It's their deal......

Sure if someone asks, trade a pm or 3 with an opinion, but don't shoot a seller of a Marauder in the azz by making your opinion public (unless its extremely complimentary :D).

Like my pappy taught me a long time ago........ If ya can't say sumthin nice? Don't say nuthin:P:burnout:

[Bigdogjim]

I really don't think $27K is over the top for a S/C 12,000 mile car? Make a offer near that number and a bet they would say yes.

[2ndmm]

be careful of what you wish, if you put your car out there for a price that you didn't think about on a whim and it sells in 10 minutes, maybe it shoulda been thought about more. Gotta start somewhere because everybody most likely is gonna try to talk you down. I think price on it is high but it is worth what you or I or the rest of the world is willing to pay.

Midwest Car Exchange is the name of the joint,they've had the car nearly TWO YEARS!
They're a schlock outfit somewhat on the order of Volo,every car I ever saw there was way overpriced.
Who knows how many times one of their staff or porters climbed into that thing with a cold motor and beat the daylights out of it since they've had it..............

It's not at their facility, it is at the owners home. The car lot guy is friends of the owner and is listing it for him, nothing more.

I would certainly look it over before I bought anything, it is a car, it will have problems............:rolleyes:

[UncleLar]

If it's got b**bs,tubes,or wheels you'll have trouble with it.
But that's what keeps life from getting boring.

[Baaad GN]

Ok guy's I've been to Midwest many of times etc, Yes they have a lot of overpriced cars, besides selling cars they use their building for storing Old cars with maybe 80% are up for sale at anyone time, and Mike we are keeping it confidential, the discussion is on this site, not craigs list etc, etc. Maybe if he was a member THEN shut up!

:confused: got nuthin....:run:

[Mustang man]

That car has been for sale for over two years. I remember seeing it when I was looking for one. I bought mine in October of 2010. I live 20 minutes from there and had no interest because nearly three years ago it was priced at $40,000.

[Motorhead350]

I dont think the owner wants that much, I think the car is on consignment, the vehicle is located in alsip, il somewhere. I have been trying to locate the owner.

Wreckless verbiage often leads to an azz beating you were not expecting.... Especially if there was no good reason for it in the first place.... Just sayin.....

I learned the hard way when I was younger..... No need for others to repeat the lessons I learned so well:beer: Being avant garde, different, or a rebel with/without a cause really gets you nowhere fast..... Enjoy the ride either way :)

[Shaijack]

Alright enough bashing. If the guy wants to list it for one million dollars it just shows he really loves his Marauder and don't want to get rid of it.
We all have a price, we are thinking of for our Marauder's. We just add in all the fun and surprises we had and try to price them in too.
As a peropn that has owned over 35 vehicles, was I sad when I sold some of them. Hell Ya. But houses, wives and children help usmake those sacrafices and we move on.

AHH, come on. I want to hear more! The other guy sounds like a literary professor that just sucked back a 24 of Schlitz!! Yum, Fire brewed

[UncleLar]

Back to subject.....
If somebody is really interested in that car maybe someone can come up with info on the owner and approach him with an offer,or barring that clue him in to advertising it here himself to "Keep It in The Family" so to speak.
Not everybody,hard as that is to fathom,is interested in this site though some are satisfied to merely be lurkers for whatever reason. I've met several people with Marauders who knew about MM.net or I clued in about it who said they weren't interested in any site or admitted to being lurkers but didn't want to be active participants.
If the VIN can be obtained I believe the owner can be traced legitimately through the Il. Sec'y. of State.

Hi. I'm 27, say what I want, do what I want, whenever I want and am establishing a carrier. Yet, doing what you want and saying is considered "rebellious" to many on this site.

Back to the topic of the car, I am glad it has 9psi on those injectors. I guess it was a poorly written ad?

Just For fun, my bank would give me $19,000 after I explained to them the collectibility and specifics of the car.

I've seen this car for sale everywhere... For the last year... Prices jumping all over. While the red stripe takes a little getting used to (I'd prefer no stipe or maybe a ghostly med grey), the hood with the ghost flames... they dont seem to go together... and combined with the Excess badgeing on the rear... Well Dano, let's get some raised white walls lettered tires, and maybe those metal curb finders too...

Of course, to each his/her own... I'd take the blackout debagded version with no external indication of the monster lurking within...

And I really liked the comments regarding the mustang comparison on pricing. I hadn't really thought about it that way.

[tbone]

Ya know, I paid just under $13,000 for my MM in November of 2007. Since then, I probably have spent around $15,000 in repairs and mods on the car. Probably more. So around $28,000 for a car that, if totaled, the insurance company would give me what, maybe $7500? (140,000 miles) There's a price to be paid for driving a car over the course of 5 years, and I never plan on selling it, so I will continue to put as many mods on it as I can, regardless of the cost and the cars value.

Value is in the eye of the beholder.

[1Marauder]

Wow, I hadn't read all of the banter before my post. "ouch!"

I rescind my humor regarding red stripes and ghost flames and raised white letter tires (which look great on appropriately aged cars).

Ya know there's a lot to be said about the comments if I could I'd buy it, in fact if I had that must money to play with I might even consider it to, the problem is I'm married and if I bought it even for $27,000 I'd end up selling it to pay the Lawyer.
I guess if truth be said we all kinda dream about buying it.
