    The shortage of full size convertibles has allways confused me. There is nothing like cruzing down the road with top down and the radio up.

    The MM covertibile would make me consider selling my Eldorado.... don't think I would do it but I would at least have a new car worth investigating.

    Marauder Convertible

    Logan,
    If they keep the price point under 40K I think it would make a nice ragtop, especially for us over 55'ers who can remember fondly the big Buicks, Olds, Pontiacs, Fords etc etc...that would cruise down the Blvd with a ton of people in em.....sigh!!!

    They should spend that money getting the performance issues fixed.

    Also, getting an X-100 version online to blunt the onslaught of the
    04 GTO and 04 Dodge Charger might be a good idea.

    Logan: See my post under the other convertible forum thread. And just to add to it. I want it in the dark blue we've discussed with a white top. What about the wheels? Should they be something unique for the Marauder convertible?

    Smile I agree with Tetsu...get it to run first

    I agree with Tetsu...I think they should make the thing perform up to its claim as muscle car before they crop the top. It doesn't make sense to buy a "muscle car" at 30k+ and then drop up to 10k in it to get it to perform like one!

    MM convertible

    If they had produced that car, I would not be driving a TBird.

    '05 MM rag top

    Only if they S/C the twin cam. I think leg room was less in the conv. That won't work for me.

    I think they should put the convertible into production, but only if it's supercharged.

    Oh my God, I just heard they cancelled the Marauder for 2005. Say it isn't so....

    IMO, threads with no posts for over a year should be closed.
