With the Mustang coming out with the new Shelby GT 500 using the supercharged 500HP engine from the FORD GT, What about giving the engine to the LM side of the family?
Since the Grand Marquis is a car that is still in production, the Marauder version of it would be relatively easy.
What do you think?

They already missed the boat... the super sedan has passed them by, the pace they work at would put a new marauder on the road after the bubble... they need to use a different car... maybe the fusion/millan and give it a new name, even the 500 call it a 500touring somethin. but no more marauder, they killed this horse

Don't need anymore Ford 500 "whatever" car. I got mine already, it is a MM500 with over 520 HP and it will give any GT500 a solid run. I'm happy, it all comes with a Trilogy boost package, special order line #124 in the MM "Mod" section (sub-section A. Special Ford Performance Enhancements).

Just for clarification, the GT500 doesn't use the GT engine. The engine in the GT costs the same as the entire GT500 CAR (45k) :D.

It be nice to see them do something for someone that wants power, but 4 doors.

Actually, I would love to see a modified SVT version of the 500. While we have a 500, it is just the SE, but doesn't matter as they all get the same motor which is seriously lacking in the power deparment.

I would love to see an AWD, supercharged V6 or V8 in there with around 350-400HP. Nice fender flares, bigger wheel/tire package, lower stance and sport-touring/GT type suspension setup.

I would be happy in one of those and keep my "rare" Marauder and give it the power it needed to start with.

I am thinking something like the Audi RS6 (I think Ford took a lot of styling queues from Audi/VW with the 500):

I don't think that will happen. They should have used the 03-04 Cobra drivetrain w/ a better supercharger.
