There's a 03 Marauder at a dealership here. I am considering trading in my 96 Tbird for it and using it as a daily driver. I have a few questions about them and any other info would be appreciated.
First, a friend of mine took a look at it after hours at the lot, and noticed that the driver's side rear was sitting lower. I would assume that the air leveling shock is leaking, is this common and how much would it cost to repair?
Are there any other concerns, TSB's or parts that commonly wear out on them. The car has 75000 kms on the odo. Were these affected by the head tick of the 03 Cobras?
I own a 99 Cobra which has a similar motor, does the gas milage suffer if the RPMs drop below 2200? It seems that like the Cobras, gears are a popular mod. Would 4.10's be good on the highway and how would it affect fuel economy.
Sorry for all the questions, I just want to learn as much about these cars before I buy or start haggling on the price, if it requries repairs.
