2002 Mercury Marauder review from North America
"The best car of 2003 and beyond!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing at all, it's brand new!!!
General comments?
Newest model to come out of the Mercury line up. The car is one of the most powerful sedans on the market, next to the F 150 Lightning. The Marauder comes fully loaded including leather interior, CD changer standard, all power features.
The car comes with a 4.6 liter Overhead Valve V8 pushing 320hp, 330lbs-ft of torque. The car has the ability to lay rubber, but due to the excellent traction control it is very difficult to do so. True dual exhaust with high flow catalytic converters, and mufflers with two 3 inch chrome tailpipes finishing off the rear.
The car right now only comes in a black finish, with carbon fiber look on the dash, and it finished off with 18 inch chrome aluminum alloy rims and P245/70/R18 low profile tires. This car is one of the best things to come out of Mercury since the previous 80's Cougar.
