    I think it would. The Marauder has a great design that still looks better than most cars on the road. Especially, when the paint and wheels are looking good with the raked stance, it definitely stands out.

    As you can tell, I'm a big fan and have been ever since 2002.

    The Lexus looks to me as a modern version of the '61 Plymouth Fury
