Hi my name is Bob. I'm from Pittsburgh. I am looking for a Marauder as my Daily Driver. I've wanted one of these car since they came out. I recently switched jobs that has as 40 min commute so I want the best driving most comfortable car since I will spend so much time in it. These cars are awesome so who wouldn't want to drive it all the time. The panthers to me are still the best cars on the road for practicality, safety and the marauder is the king of them. I would like to find one with low miles so I can drive it for quite a few years to come. Not planning to mod other than maybe some mufflers and a tune. I already have a nice collection of weekend drivers listed in my sig. My mostly highway trek to work made me realize my FWD LeSabre isn't cutting it. the front heavy car is not a desirable feel on the highway sweeping bends. Plus I miss having a RWD car for a daily.

Welcome to the site!! I work in New Stanton, but travel all over PA on a weekly basis. If you want me to help you look at a Marauder let me know. Unfortunately you will most likely have to travel for the right car.

Welcome to the bar!!!


I have about the same commute time and the Marauder is the best car. I have mufflers a tu e and the rear cats removed and she is perfect as my daily computer...good choice. Good luck with you're search though, I drove a 'short' distance at an hour and a half to find mine...but they are worth it. Plus the members here are Huber helpful in helping with the search or just about anything you may need before during and after you find one...enjoy...:D

there is NOTHING locally here in the burgh.. most of what I find in my search is Michigan or jersey. found one that was an R-title near Detroit but the dealer wont get back to me with receipts and documentation of the rebuild. one just popped up about 5 mins from my house but its got rims, system, over 100k and its black with light flint :puke: for the small price of 17,900! :eek:
