    I voted Black, but I think the other colours are good too. I think silver will boost sales, a lot of people have been holding off for it.
    Haven't seen a picture of a red one yet

Looks like there's been a serious splintering. I never thought it'd be possible for this to happen to a group of owners of a car model that sold no more than 14000 copies over 2 model years. Kind of scary, when thinking of the scale. Makes one think that maybe it'd be a good idea to do some introspection and think about what each of us needs to do to build a solid community, analyze what it is we're all honestly looking for by belonging to this community.

    I voted for black but I have to qualify that... I own 2 black Crown Vics and once owned a black Camaro Z-28. I'm sure it's no news to anyone that it's nearly impossible to keep a black car looking clean for very long, (although I do try very hard to do it). I think the silver Marauder is gorgeous too. I'd have to see one in person so I could look it over from every angle. It would definitely be easier to keep looking clean! I don't know, I can't decide between black or silver. I guess I'll just have to get one of each color!

    whatever colors they make, you can be sure that I will come up with a combination of scratch pads and pens to complement it!

    The Marauder was made to be black. I would've bought it in black even if it came in a palette of colors. But then again, my last two cars have been black (95 Dodge Neon, 97 T-Bird). If you don't want to honor it by keeping it clean, don't buy black anything.

    Good point BChap, both the Buick GN and Impala SS hit the streets in Johnny Cash trim, black seems more a necessary component of the MM than an option.

    I do like black, but I HATE how it gets dirty so fast. I would have to see it live to be sure, but I think I'd probably go with red.

    I saw a red SS at ImpalaFest. I was very impressed with it. I feel the MM would look good that way also.

    I'd have to say "toreador red," I see the Crown Vic LX Sports running around in that color, and I think they look pretty good.

    Black looks great, when it's clean.

    I wonder if the MSRP will become less flexible when the new colors come out...maybe a black 2003 will be the bargain of the decade.

    Even though I have one, I'll weigh in...

    If not black then Dark Toreador Red.

    NOTE: I didn't vote in the poll, though.

    I Love the color of the silver Marauder that I saw in another post, but Black is beautiful too. My last car was black, and it was a pain to keep clean, but silver just seems to make the car look less menacing. Its still a tough call for me!

    The picture of the silver MM was sharp. I'm waiting to see the red one before I make up my mind. I think I have my wife talked into getting a MM for her next car, but she definitely won't accept a black one. She's "been there, done that" with a 1981 Chrysler Imperial. Beautiful car, but impossible to keep clean.

    The Marauder is very very impressive car in black!As a detailing freak it's the right car to have.
    That being said I like the Toreador Red and silver next in thet order.I also like the Black Cherry the Chevy Impala SS had.
    PS.It's your car get the color you want.If you like to clean and shine Black pays you back in Double?Double the work and double the LOOK!
