    Purchase help please

    I am very seriously looking at buying one of these beasts,
    and I would like to know what I should expect to pay.
    I'm located in sunny MN.

    Thank you.

    I'd beat them down in price and don't forget about the rebates. The Marauder is not selling well so what ever the dealer has on the lot he/she should be giving you a good price! I'd say $27,500-$28,500 with the rebates.

    You'll LOVE the car!

    We have seen a couple of the 300A's which are the original black ones go for as low as $26.5

    A new 300B which can be black, silver or blue will probably go in the $27.5 to $30 K range depending on how hungry the dealer is.

    The cheapest price I've seen on here for a new Marauder (without test-drive mileage) is $26,500. One dealer near me is advertising one for $27,500. See ad here. Keep in mind that the lowest prices are probably for 300A Marauders that have been sitting on dealer lots for a long time. A guy from Texas got his for $26,500 and said the same dealer has two more 300As in stock.

    I'm on the fence right now about a purchase. $27,500 sounds OK, but $26,500 sounds a whole lot better!

    At any of those prices under $30,000 the Marauder is a steal for the package

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.

    RCSignals is right. I think IMO that the best deal you can get is good but I wouldn't want to miss out on getting one of these cars over a few bucks. Simply-it struck me as a top of the line domestic sedan on a mature platform with muscle. I don't know that we'll ever see something like this for the money ever again. Buy the car!!

    I think everyone should pay full list price +$1k, just like I did 10 months ago. Darn impulse buys!
    Wish I would have had the advantage you guys have now. Enjoy the rides. Get them while you can !

    New- Purchase Price

    Invoice on a new 300B only is exactly $31.890.57 depending on the build date. MSRP (window) is $34.495.00. This number is for my car that was invoiced on 2-6-03. Currently there is a $4000.00 rebate. If you borrow your fathers AARP card you are entitled to an additional $500.00 "pop".

    A purchase price of $27.390.00 is exaclty invoice less the two rebates. This is a helluva bargainif you can negotiate that. If you need some help let me know.

    PS- Don't forget the free jacket. I got my card (not-AARP) for jacket today!

    I'm sorry Gentlemen but y'all are rapidly relieving me of any buyer's remose I've ever had in my entire life. I bought a BetaMax machine, a LaserDisc player, held on to my 8-tracks until 1984 and paid $2K over sticker for a Miata. Finally, I bought the right thing at the right time. You have done me a great service and I thank you.

    Go to Chicago,Find the carMax that has SGTMACS car and grab it!
    His car, I'm sure,runs the way the Marauder should run stock!
    Plus if they hold the price to what's advertised it's a steel.

    FWIW I paid about 32,700 last Sept. and I felt it was a fair deal,still do as a matter of fact.So to us who paid over $30k anything in the $27k-29k range is a good price on a new one.

    Check this link out and the e-mail address is there for questions. Sounds like a great deal and the car could have been bought for 23k !!!!!! It is probably still available and the remaining factory warranty comes with it. That's a whopping 12k off sticker. You can buy the damn leather jacket later for $299!!!!
    You could buy a whole bundch of goodies for 12k.........
