Well yes I miss the Marauder dearly but do some reliablility issues and
Dealers playing the "Beats me" card all thie time, I got fed up and jumped
ships, at least temporarily. I do alot of travling and the car is more economical for me as well. In July I bought a new 2006 Acura TL. I know
some of you frown upon Japanese cars, I know I did at one point, but just
thought I would throw these out there anyway. The last pic is of my
Marauder on there used car lot. It sold in a week!!!!!

Nice cars, especially the Type S models. I test-drove and seriously considered an '03 TL-S, and it was certainly a nice car; well-built, good handling, decent power, good looks. Nav system was fun to play with too. But, for me, once I test-drove the Marauder, I pretty much forgot about the TL. Maybe the new generation are more appealing, and I wish you the best of luck with the new ride.

If you do a lot of traveling, I imagine the fuel savings will add up for you too, can't really say much there as it's a rare year I put more than 10k miles on my car.

I just don't understand why you and others start a thread telling everyone that you sold your Marauder a bought a Japanese car.

I agree--for a marauder board --to do so^^^^does seem ill placed...

"The Lizard Lounge-All OFF-TOPIC Marauder unrelated posts must go here"

I guess I thought would post the new ride like others have done. Next time

you see a title of this nature, don't click on it.

Well, everyone is entitled to drive what they like and have the money to pay for. To me, if it doesn't have rear wheel drive--or, maybe 4-wheel drive--it's not a real car. The only front wheel drive cars I've ever had were cars that I had no voice in the purchase decision....company cars. Although free is good!!!

There are some great German/Jap cars nowadays. As for the TL...can you say torque steer?!

Damn you Mike, lol. I would have bought yours before mine. TL's are a sleek, sexy car IMO. My friend's Dad owns a Used Car dealership and he buys and sells them all the time. They go pretty good too.

Looks like a front wheel drive ricer. Why did you not buy a KIA, their warranty is better ?
Enjoy TL's Club and net members ! (if any)
