A car for me
It's about time someone built a fun car for big people. I'm 6'2" and don't fit in any of the Hondas, Nissans or Toyotas.This big Merc has it all. Power, handling, braking and fun to drive. I missed out on the last Impala but I drove a couple. Glad I waited for the Maurader. It's build quality is much better and it handles better and is faster.
Boss Mercury
This is a really sweet Mercury. I have owned a lot of Mercurys in the last 30 years and this Marauder is solid, fun to drive, fast enough and a car every middle-aged guy needs.

value for your money
Didnt plan on buying a MM.Was going to trade in 1999 Grand Marque LS on exact replacement. MM was on showroom floor.The price was so right I drove it off the showroom floor for a test drive.We then drove it the 250 miles back home.You cant beat the value you get for the money in this mercury line. Power,AWESOME handling,ride is a bit stiff in the city streets but on the highway or mountain roads where we live this car was built for them.I feel sorry for city dwellers who will really never get to use the car at its potential.Note: We didnt trade in our other Grand Marque.
GIVE ME MORE POWER...PLEASE
We've had the car for 4 months and thus far it has been problem free, no visits to the dealership or unusual gremlins! They notified me in July '02 that vehicles were in transit but I had decided to wait for the X100 limited production version. After seeing and driving the Marauder, we decided to go ahead and buy it and replace the daily driver. The admiring glances and thumbs up from other drivers has been a kick. My wife drives it most of the time and loves to tell people it's her car not mine (she tells me she smoked a guy and his 4-speed El Camino from a rolling start the other day!).
WELL RESTED PORSCHE
Since I bought the Maurader, I've driven my Porsche twice! It is certainly a throwback to the sixties.The amazing apect of ownership is the wide range of admirers. My 80 year old aunts love to ride in the "roomy" back seat , and the teens everywhere give "thumbs up" . The exhaust sound is great,the ride is comfortable , and the styling is neat.
