    Must have been dependable. Only had the wiper blades replaced under warranty @ 2 miles.
    (#6178 in black per FPIC)
    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    Rest In Peace:

    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

    $13,500 for 114k miles??? I guess our cars hold our Value, try to pawn off a Crown Vic with that many miles and see how much you can get! I also Agree that its the right color! Ill keep Silver as a interior accent color.

    BTW,

    Neat price. But I'm still ticked off over not having had a chance at that 300 km brand new 2003 MM at only a few thousand more than what I paid for my 24000 km second car.

    That's the "buy it now" price, i.e., what the owner would take for it.

    Blue book, "private sale" price for the zip code of the owner in EXCELLENT condition is $11,700, GOOD condition is $10,800.

    As a comparison, a 2003 CV LX sport with 114,000 miles optioned similarly to the '03, 114,000 mile Marauder lists for $9,220 in excellent condition for that zip code, $8,400 for Good condition.

    Yes, but where do they get those figures, especially for 'private sale'? For cars like the MM that don't go through the dealer auctions often (yet), and most likely haven't had a lot of that high mileage private sales, they are guesstimates.


    The blue book is not all-knowing.

    Is that a Police Interceptor badge on the rear?

    I guess you ran an OASIS report to get that? Can you tell if it's a 300B and if it has heated seats?

    I've seen parts cars priced close to that.
