Just Started Seriously Looking!

[mariodawg]

Hi all; New member! I am in the market for a low mileage Black '03-'04 Marauder (I'd pay more for an '04). I'd also prefer a totally "un-modified" car, but popular (and tasteful) minor alterations like window tint, stereo upgrades, K&N filters and such are just fine. I would also still be interested in cars with limited powertrain mods (4.10 rear gears or some high quality exhaust mods come to mind), but I do NOT want a one-off hot rod with extensive modifications. Here's the catch: I live in Oklahoma, and I'd prefer not to have to drive halfway across the country for a "fair" deal (meaning the further I have to travel, the less I'm willing to pay). So in short, if someone has an unmolested black low-milage Maurader (especially '04) for sale in the central US, please let me know via this forum. For sure, while I am picky, I am a SERIOUS buyer, and I have the means and infrastructure to pamper whatever Marauder I end up buying. Thanks Gents!

Welcome to the site. Certainly although many believe these are rare cars there are plenty for sale. Good luck

[mariodawg]

Oh, I definitely consider them "rare enough". I always liked them, and now the time has come...

[lji372]

Be careful. I bought one last year not knowing anything about them. Then bought another this year. :dunno:

what's in the cards for next year ?????

[mariodawg]

Sounds like an addiction. I'm in!

I think he's referring to THIS site. Check under "Forums" for the Cars For Sale posts.

[mariodawg]

Already looked...started there as a matter of fact! I already sent a message to one member's listing; no reply yet. Too bad he doesn't live closer though...

Download craigslist pro on your phone. I think the payed one lets you know in muiltable states where a mm will come up for sale via alert. Also autotrader alerts

[mariodawg]

Copy all. Thanks for the advice.

BAM! might not be the best location for you but the price looks good if the car checks out.

Yo gents! Ok emailed the second one since it was a fairly low mileage car. The first one had almost 100k on it, so that doesn't interest me. I have a couple other feelers out as well....we'll see how things play out.

I already tried for that one a week ago or so. It was sold already. Another seller just accepted an offer from me today, so now I just got to work with the bank next week. Daddy's gonna have a new toy! :)

I hope you enjoy your new toy! It's going to be a bitter sweet ending for me when I hand you the keys over.... Suppose it's all for the best.

Looking forward to meeting you on Sunday night, and post up pics when you get her home safe and sound. It's gonna be a long ride back to Oklahoma!! lol!

Thanks all! I'm getting her titled/tagged/taxed on Saturday, then she'll be all street legal. I am already thinking of looking locally for a MMDS, and may update the software eventually. I also have already purchased 3x used P71 17x7.5 black steelies; one more and I'll get some good all-season tires mounted on them for the Winter months. Luckily, we don't get much snow and ice out here in OK, and the road crews use mostly sand, not salt. Then there's the window tinting option...

[Curless]

LIMO BLACK on the tint! I love mine, nice looking car, welcome to the collective!:beer:

Like Justbob said, come on up to Louisville in the spring!
