This Year's Model Updates:

A new heavy-duty four-speed automatic comes standard for quicker shifts along with traction control and an upgraded audio system. Dark Red and Silver are newly available exterior colors. The 4.6-liter V8 now comes with dual knock sensors for improved engine response at low speeds.

Pros:
  • Handling that belies its size, the ride and comfort of a Town Car, strong straightline performance once engine speed builds, high safety ratings.
Cons:
  • Lack of low-end thrust, poor lateral support in seating.

  • Great Car - 2004 Mercury Marauder
    By -

    Great fun to drive car. I traded in my 1997 Crown Vic with 210,000 miles on a 04 Marauder and couldnt be happier, plus Merc is offering 0% interest for 5 years. Great exhaust note but not too loud. The car is basically a new Crown Vic Sport with better engine, no woodgrain, much better suspension, and bling bling wheels. Most people have never heard of a Marauder which is a plus in my book. Plus it tows my 3000 lb trailer with no problem. Should be easy to repair and maintain since it is basically a Crown Vic. Only one brand and model of tires available to fit rear (which might be an expensive proposistion several years from now).

    Ive owned alot of cars over the years, and this is one of the best. I wish they were still made. You cant beat the combination of performance and comfort.

    I have a 2003 model & like it quite well. Front cup holders placement & size flexability need improvement. Why not have tilt-down lighted mirrors for rear passengers? Needs better quality carpeting. Consol lid not convenient for front passenger. Why not have same size tires on front and rear so they can be rotated? I am happy with the handling & performance.

  • Dream To Own And Drive - 2004 Mercury Marauder
    By -

    This car is a dream if you are interested in performance. It has the power to merge into traffic on the freeway and the power to pass other vehicles on 2 lane roads. I am getting about 23 MPG on the highway and about 20 MPG in the city. It is so comfortable that I can drive this car for 350 miles without stopping and not get tired. There is plenty of room in the back seat for your passengers and there is a center fold down armrest in the back seat. The visibility from to the outside from inside the "cockpit" is excellent and all the gauges are easy to see. The console makes a handy storage area but unfortunately neither it nor the glove compartment lock. I love this car.

  • Must have car, nothing like it driving - 2004 Mercury Marauder

    This car is awesome, will give whiplash if not careful. Good fit and finish. Lots of attention from people especially when the engine is reving. Have not noticed excessive body roll.

  • The best car ive ever had - 2004 Mercury Marauder
    By -

    From the immaculate interior to the extremly fast v8 the mercury marauder is by far the best thing that has come out of ford in a while..

  • Marauding in the Marauder - 2004 Mercury Marauder

    The handling is great. Taking corners with some speed feels like you are one with the road. She makes you want to push her and see how she handles. The acceleration is just, well, take her for a ride and find out!

  • Marauder loaded - 2004 Mercury Marauder
    By -

    Had the car 2 months now. Im a young guy(30s) and beleive it or not, previously owned 2 Grand Marquis. Liked them but decided for something with a little more attitude. Certainly found it with this beast. I love the car, but it has fit & finish issues. Im very disappointed with inconsistent spacing between doors and roof panels. Not acceptable for a car that lists for $37,000. Dash started to come apart on pass. side. Dealer fixed that. Yet driver side doors are still mounted improperly causing paint to chip in door jams. Dealer fixed that, but gaps between door and roof are inconsistent with pass. side. How does this make it past quality control at the assembly plant? Unacceptable!
