    Honest 8900 miles, first owner had it ten years, put 7000 miles on it, second owner had it just a few years.

    I think the few options it does NOT have are sunroof and heated seats.
    I drove a really nice grand marquis about 12 years ago that I liked, always liked large body cars, but the new wife hated it so we sold that move on to other cars.
    Finally convinced her to let me get another Marquis, then I kinda did a switch on her and got the MM. LOVE IT.
    Still workin on how to put pics here in a post. Every forum is a bit different but i did create an album so far and added pics.

    I've seen mention of 'model 300' on this forum. How can I learn more about that, as well as what would be stock on my particular car. For example is my air intake stock, are my drilled and slotted calipers stock. I 'THINK' it's stock, looking for location on this forum where I can understand more.

    your air tube is not stock, it is a jlt cai, drilled and slotted are not stock either.

    congrats and great find. I found my second one a few months ago and it had 15k on it. So I completely understand not wanting to drive it!

    it looks to have the common mods for the car. Put it on a lift to check exhaust, sway bars and rear control arms. With the intake and drilled/slotted rotors, I wouldn't be surprised if it also has some suspension upgrades.

    Other things I would check for would be tune and 4:10s, as they are common upgrades as well. Although, you can't exactly look for them...

    Ford Carlisle is the largest gathering of Ford and related car show/gathering in the World. We usually get around 50 Marauders up on Marauder Mountain. It's a fun weekend the first weekend in June. Once we get a little closer to the date there will be more posted about it.

    here is some general info.

    http://www.carlisleevents.com/carlis...ord-nationals/

    You may also be interested in the annual regional Marauder Louisville Ky. gathering. I think it's in April 2017. Info for that is starting to be posted.
