Original owners please post here

I was the first person (and only person) to buy the '04 Silver Birch that April. My dealership had no saleman who even heard of the Marauder. When I told them that I had just seen it at the New York Auto Show, they looked for a brochure. Before the Mercury dealership closed, I was still the only person to ever buy a Marauder there.
The car now has 51,352 miles on it, with some mods. Runs great, good MPG on long trips, and still turns heads.

Not original owner but did buy mine when they were still making them. Does that count? :D
2003 but purchased in January 2004.
 
Gordon's Marauder #8 was ordered March 03, went from factory to Kenny Brown's shop and delivered to us as a MarauderS in June 03.
 
Test drove one in June/July of 2002 at Tysons Va. LM.....I wanted one badddd......dealer wanted sticker @ $35,000+.

No deal.

Waited until the end of the year when Safford LM had 6 Black Marauders lined up on the lot.
I picked the cleanest looking one and swung a deal for $30,600 on the road....plus got a year end rebate for another $500.

Built: 10/15/02
Bought: 12/16/02

Still lovin' this car!

There were 6 black ones with sunroofs at my local dealer stickered at $38,500 and they wouldn't accept a dime less. All of them sold quick..

The market I live in is also notorious for marking up anything that is in high demand $10,000 over sticker and
Labeling the extras portion with something like "regional mark up" I remember seeing this on a Harley truck and GT500's (which were more like $30,000 over..) when they first came out.

Problem is they actually sell quick.

This is exactly why I bought mine used in '04.

As I thought, about 50 +/-. Not bad for car that had a low build number and has been out of production almost ten years. :up:

Was this Cherner Lincoln Mercury? Or Kip Killman's Ford?

Had to be Cherner.....IIRC.

BTW: If it had been a 'Chrystal Koons' dealership I wouldn't have even stopped in for a test drive.
I CANNOT STAND that annoying rich b*tch and her incessant commercials....:mad2:
