This Year's Model Updates:

In an effort to generate interest in what seems to be a dying brand, Mercury takes a page out of a decade-old Chevrolet playbook and paints a Grand Marquis Amish-black, bolts on 18-inch wheels and stuffs a 300-horse V8 under the hood. The result is surprisingly appealing.

Pros:
  • Beefy horsepower figures, all-American attitude.
Cons:
  • Needs more low-end punch, no independent rear suspension.

    My wife wanted a V8 rear wheel drive cruiser, so being a blue oval guy I bought her a silver Marauder. This car rocks! From 50 to 90 it nails you to the seat. It handles very well for a large sedan. The interior is very comfortable, heated seats are great. Love the tire & wheel combo. If you think it rides too rough, go buy a Town Car. Fords best kept secret!

    I also own a 1996 SS Impala. My SS is a super car, but not equal to the Marauder, in terms of power, quality, comfort, gadgets, etc. However, I do prefer the lower profile of the SS. I fully intend to keep both cars indefinitely, but if I had to choose which to keep, it would be the Marauder.

    The Mercury Marauder is a dream come true. A full size luxury car with sports car performance. The smile on my face never ends. To like a car after one year of ownership is normal. To love a car after one year of ownership is not normal. After one year I love this car. Visit mercurymarauder.net.

    I have driven Marquis for 10 years. My last had all the bells and whistles Bigger engine, Alum. wheels, etc.) When I saw the Marauder, I knew I had to have one. I purchased it in April, and I love it! Lots of luxury, and alot of power!

    This car provides an excellent combination of size and power for a very reasonable price. The interior is well appointed. Seats are big and comfortable. Instrument poanel is easy to read. This car flies once you get it moving. Smaller cars will beat you off the line, but you will blow their doors off on the highway.

  • This is what Ive been waiting for. - 2003 Mercury Marauder
    By -

    I picked mine up July 2nd. One of the frist 4 shipped from the factory. Ive had a lot of cars mostly Ford products. Driving is fun again. I thought my Mark VIII was great untill this came along. After the Mark tried the Lincoln LS, didnt even come close. This is a keeper. Has preformance, style, ride and room. I love it.

  • great car - 2003 Mercury Marauder

    make no mistake about it, this car IS comfortable(very in my opinion for a performance sedan). The ride is great, and i cant wait to open it up on the highway. The car is also loaded with features too. Inside and out, this car is simply awesome. My only gripe with it is the bottom end grunt. It just isnt enough for this type of vehicle. But once it gets going, it moves! Other than that, this is an awesome vehicle that is a great replacement(and better) for the 1994-6 impala ss. One test drive and i believe that you will agree.

  • Roomy and Powerful - 2003 Mercury Marauder
    By -

    The Marauder is truly a one-of-a-kind car on the market right now. It has great room, a nice sounding stereo, great performance and handling and a very nice interior. It has a great exhaust sound and throws you back in the seat when you step on it to get around that slow car on a two lane highway.

  • Fun full size car to drive - 2003 Mercury Marauder
    By -

    I am the owner of the 03Marauder and I love it. I have always driven older 60s and 70s sedans, which I still own. But I had been following the story of the Marauder for the last 3 years and was very interested in it. When the car came out, I had read the reviews and they were very complimentary on the vehicle. Then in May, 2003, I had a chance to purchase the only one this dealer had. This car drives like a car should drive, plenty of pickup, wonderful appearance and roomy inside and the trunk. The car is very easy to drive and can be pushed if needed. I find that I can keep this car looking like new. It is very easy to clean.

  • Stealth Car - 2003 Mercury Marauder
    By -

    So far everything is fine. Runs great handles great. The suspension is a little stiff for around town driving but out on the road it is just fine. People just dont know what it is when they see it, when I tell them a Marauder most have never heard of it. That is part of the fun
