Bleh, its not nearly as fast as its made out to be. More bark than bite. Don't do it unless you plan on slapping a blower on that bad boy to make it perform like Ford marketed it.

I'd consider one if I was old, like Stealth or Blue. If I was 20 years older I might consider one, but they do look good.

If and when I become a Sheriff, I will get one of those for my DD and slap a turbo on it. It will be my sleeper

But when I become a k-9 unit/deputy then I get to take the squad car home...so I guess it won't get much use then

I kinda like 'em. They're a terror off the line with a good converter and some gears, otherwise they're slugs up until about 4K RPM or so.

The 4V engine can be kinda troublesome though, they all clatter and rattle a bit on cold start, especially with some miles on them. Marauders are pretty hard on tires too, whether you drive them hard or not.

Take one on the highway, go a bit over the limit and watch how fast people pull over to let you pass

There have not been none made sense 2004.

My Grandpa had one. It was fast until he crashed it.
