Why? Rims gotta go, what's up with the rear fascia? Nice spare tire....Also, I can't recall, is that the CEL, or Low Fuel light that's on? Nice paint job also.

Low Fuel Is On Paint Job Sucks.i Bet Oem Paint Was Better.

Looks like they left the fascia black so they didnt have to paint the tail light trim...??? Theft recovery vehicle I'd bet...

Madd tight yo'

Actually, I think I honestly like that color on it (Arizona Beige I think)
The door jambs look nice and evenly painted as well, so it seems like a pretty good paint job at least from the pics.


They probably left the fascia and tail trims unpainted for the CVPI look.
Would look nicer with OEM wheels, though.

I really like the hole in the center console near cupholders, the down to cords front tire, missing trim for cd changer, and most of all missing subwoofer (must sound like an old IROC all treble no bass)

It's from the waffle/pancake syrup that got stuck on there when the kiddies where crying.

Did anyone happen to notice the plethora of steel belts hanging out on the close-up of the tire?

I've seen that car in person. I saw it on spring Garden Street about a year ago. The color isn't bad at all. The rear fascia looks like a Crown Vic PI.

[SID210SA]

Trim is loose on the shifter and on the driverside door panel for the windows and the volts seem a bit low. I bet it was a rear ended total loss...but it has, according to the listing, a clear title.....what other reason would there be for a repaint and different rear facia.....it also has a virgin front bumper.

[Vortex]

Ill go against the grain here, I kinda like it if the price was right. If its not a salvage job it probably did get rear ended but the motor looks good, not too high milage and the fixes needed are not what I would call high dollar. I think the color is actually pretty nice. I bet this car can be had for 13k or so.

[Marauder]

You could always buy it and what you could sell those rims for, you can get a nice set of stock rims and tires with possibly a few bucks left over.

I saw it in person and it looks slightly darker...it must be the exposure. It still looked decent. :)

hey man i owned an 88 IROC and i wil say no matter what, you felt awesome driving it. i didnt hook up the "stereo"(should have been called treble surround sound) for a week simply because my 3 inch exhaust sounded so sweet. like every chevy though it blew up and got sold for more than it was worth.

i saw this grand marauder on ebay with my brother and was very dissappointed. people are being exposed to these marauders and giving them a bad rep. that gives me a thread idea...
