Save yourself 10 grand and buy the Crown Victoria Sport. You only get a few less lb./ft. of torque, and Mercury should be embarrassed for pulling the engine from the demised Lincoln Mark VIII instead of running a supercharged version of the 4.6.

I test drove a bunch of cars, including alot of Europians like Mercedes and BMW,and although the models I drove undoubtedly out performed this car, They lacked the inside room and comfort. But for the money, there is no competition for the Marauder. Some other American sedans are slightly better off the line, but once she gets moving, the handling and road feel are beyond anything GM or Chrysler has to offer. And yes, even including that utterly disappointing, uncomfortable, tub of goo Monte Carlo SS.

Anyone who dislikes this vehicle, probably works for another manufacturer, or is afraid that their precious Impala is going to lose a ton of value (which it will). Why would someone sell this vehicle, after finding out it only comes in black? Low ratings on this board equal that persons PANIC. Gorgeous looks and super comfortable. Whats not to like.

I purchased four days ago, 14.5 mpg. on first refill, engine seems tight, with less low end torque than I expected, however after about 200 miles I noticed a continuing improvement in take off speed and also in torque when down shifting. The car responds much quicker and with less gas pedal the more I drive it. I love the way it sounds and the handling is excellent for it's size. I have not floored it yet and I don't believe I will until about 1000 miles. The car has not disappointed me yet; it is exactly what I want it. Luxury, Power, Good looks.

Middle Age

Middle aged means you have been around long enough to drive cool cars. Could this be all that Mercury says? Answer YES! The first time my fat middle aged butt hit the seat I knew. Hit the key and the beast comes to life. Get salesman in car and advise to stay calm. This is not grandma going to bingo. The urge hits. Mash the peddle and the Maurader roars to life. At a buck 20 the salesmans pacemaker starts to fail, back to the showroom to sign some paper. Turn heads you bet. Fun car yep. Great job Mercury. Adding an addtional 60 HP with the new chip it even gets better. If you got one enjoy it. If you want one get it. If you don't like em tough #!%&.
