Wanted - Blue Marauder

[dpotter]

I also posted in the Market section but figured this would be a great place...

If you have one (or know of one) and are interested in selling please send me details via PM. Serious buyer, lower miles is better, mods are good...close to TX would be a bonus.

Thanks,

Had to pick the hard color, didn't ya! :-D

Keep an eye on Ebay, and surf to mercurymarauder.net and/or motorcitymarauders.com.

Both sites have a large Marauder following and members in there post all the time about their finds (Auto Trader, Ebay, etc). Plus I think both have a marketplace too.

Best of luck - you'll love what you find (and you may have to travel a bit if you really want a blue - only 327 made in the first place!).

I am painfully aware of the limited nature of the ever elusive blue MM. I very much enjoy mm.net.

I'll be sure to post up some pics and details of my find if I ever get one!

Thanks Jonathan,

Ohh yea, now I see you over there...

Your taking the necessary steps!

Best,

Yep, seen it many times...although only in vids. That thing is just nuts, gotta love it!

Check the Marauder Forums for a Blue for sale in Wisconsin? Less than 2K miles, lots of raves about it, a museum piece. Asking about 28k.

PS-Silver Birch is the BEST!

POPPAJ, that 1,700 mile Blue was Mark Uhrman's, I believe he sold it. I can't afford another garage queen anyway....I want something for daily use.

Thanks, she is a museum piece though!

If it's a MM, there's only one color, BLACK.

480 from a FIT? Seems like a stretch, you gonna beef up the internals?

BTW, I love the black MM's and wanted Zack's Trilogy but he's not selling.

I'm thinking my next ride is gonna be a MM just because of the sleeper look it has. How much do they usually run?

Not really, there is a Trilogy member that has 505rwhp. Do some research before you call someone a liar. Not to mention I sold the FIT kit, and am working on something else right now.

Depends if it's an '03 or 04, the 04's have a higher resale value. Haha, I'll trade you for the Mystic Chrome?

I did not perceive that statement as calling you a liar. My apologies if you were offended by my questioning your intention to spin a stock MM motor up to 480 RWHP. Good luck with your new plans.

Either way, I'm still looking for a blue MM.

It's all good. :beer: Why blue? I like personally like the black and silver because they look the most badass.

I just love blue...what can I say. I sold my 04 Mystic to get a Sonic Blue! I have a line on a SB Trilogy that I will likely end up buying if I can't find a blue by the time my Cobra sells. Heck, I had an offer on a heavily modded blue but it was balls-out and I need something reliable not a race car, besides that the guy wanted $25K minimum. I may have a shot at a MINT '04 Trilogy, 450 RWHP (at one time) with nice mods...tough choices.

My Cobra is supposed to sell 4/19 so we should know what my family Cobra will be sometime next month.

I'm out of the market for a Rauder, replaced my DD ('98 Explorer) with a '02 Mountaineer. It's a Merc but it's no MM!

Sorry to hear you couldn't find a "blue" one......maybe the next go around!:rolling:

 

[dpotter]

I will continue to look for a MM. Wife likes the Mountaineer = selling her Honda minivan for a MM...what a gal.

Cobra stays!

Here is a blue for sale in Fl for $15,9 w/ 46k. Looks like a decent deal. Now sell that minivan
