I am kinda partial to Dark Blue Pearl. However, I will admit that what drew me to the Marauder in the first place was the Black, sinister look of the Marauder. The Blue MM is what convinced the wife. Heck, I didn't even know blues existed until that day. Didn't find out how rare they were until much later.

.............actually ...you will surely see some write-ins here for sure--starting with mine----oh sure--....don't get me wrong here--I like my Black---the 4 colors MM shoved on us --we had no choice--but given a choice ----well thats another adventure---so maybe a
" what 'other' color would you like to have had a choice from" would be a thingy--anyway--

I think the following would have been nice to have been offeredexterior)

* Dark Green
* Gray
* Champane
* Gun Metal
.am sure you will see others ---.....my preference anyway---Tom

I agree black is my favorite but if I had the garage space and extra funds I would have 1 of each color.

While the other colors are nice (still haven't seen a silver in person yet), this bad boy was meant to be back in black!

Those of you who drive the other colors...don't know the true meaning of the "DARK SIDE!!!"

Black is the best. But only until they invent a darker color.

It's got to be Black. Everything else lacks the menacing good looks.

Blue with Shelby Stripes

Black, red, and silver are all okay with me, but I waited 9 months for them to build the blue, then spent the better part of a year and a half at sea before I actually had the car delivered to me. So Blue with White Shelby Stripes is my favorite. -kjs-

Uh,,,ok-

I'm going to be as diplomatic as possible with my answer (ooooohhhh big trouble coming ;>).

When I first REALLY thought about getting a Marauder these were my thoughts. I've always been a fan of black muscle cars from WAY back. BUT,,, seeing as most of the Marauders were going to be black, I wanted something a tad different. I was all set to go out and buy a Silver one, but IMHO the silver they used was just too light. The sunroof stood out too much, and I wasn't thrilled with the black grill (just a personal taste issue). Blue wasn't available in '04 (and I've yet to see one, though I think I'd really like it) so I drove 30 miles to a dealer to see a DTR one.

There it was, on the showroom floor, with 4 miles on it, and I fell in love with it the minute I saw it.

So, with that said, I'd have to say DTR (and maybe the blue when I see one) are my choices.

But when push comes to shove, I'd have bought it if lime green was the only color, and spent the money to repaint it.

I LOVE this car,,,,, and still no mods yet ;>.
