    If it's priced right, it will sell within minutes...

    I've purchased 3 marauders off this site, Florida, Texas, and St Louis Missouri in the last 2 years..... all same day purchases

    Cali car all its life???
    The truth isn’t too popular, these cars are hard to sell. Even more so with higher mileage. 8500-11,000 is a reasonable asking price based on lots of Marauders for sale in the last year. 15k is dreaming.

    And there’s only one lowendex out there with more money to burn.

    If you keep the Marauder please keep collision/comp. A neighbor's mid 2000s Chevrolet SS pickup caught fire today - he rarely drove it but kept it in immaculate condition. He dropped collision/comp because he rarely drove it and it had been trouble free.

    He pulled into the subdivision with his instrument panel smoking heavily; he pulled into his driveway and took a water hose to it (he had no dry chemical extinguisher). Up to four neighbors (including me) came over with dry chemical extinguishers and had the fire put out before the FD arrived.

    Seats, console and steering wheel appear to be ok but the instrument panel/dash is clearly toast. Would hate to see this truck go to salvage but this guy's income is complete crap at the moment. I have maintained 0-$50 deductible on comp/collision for many years - not expensive IMO.

    $52,750 FIRM.....uhmmmm yeah.

    Maybe in another 25 years!

    At that price I guess that I should relist my Marauder for $35,750....FIRM.

    To dohc324ci: If you don't need to sell your car immediately for financial reasons, List your car for what you think is fair.
    If it doesn't sell, no harm.
    I'm not going to lower my Marauder's selling price anymore.
    If it doesn't sell, I'm going to put it in my garage for another 5 years, then at 20 years of age, I can register it as 'Historic'.
    At that point, I can drop in a Jon Kaase BOSS 521, tell the MD. MVA to shove it!... and make it run like it should.

    146k with a used go fast engine and some exhaust... what makes it worth so much?

    I bought a 69k vortech car, mint body and paint, exhaust, loads of mods, brakes, colex trinkets, built trans and rear for $8000.00 2 years ago.

    14-15k? 😳

    That's built motor big brake blower car money.

    I’m not trying to upset anyone, just being honest. The market for selling a car now includes Facebook, used car websites, mm.net, and every other form of social media. The days of overpricing a car and getting the money are gone. There’s a reason why your car has been for sale for five years, it’s worth more to you than the potential car buyers. It’s very nice and has some great mods but it’s a black 03 Marauder with aftermarket rims.

    High mileage hurts the price even if you have done a lot to the car. 15k is under 40k miles with a power added territory for these cars, or at least it is if you want to sell the car.

    Extremely higher price for an older Panther no matter which improvements has been done and other thing that matters at the time to sell a car is the mileage
