One and only one.....determined to be way too expensive to go into even limited production. Do a search and you'll find the details here.

To begin to make it feasible you'd probably have to get commitments from a whole lot of Grand Marquis and CV owners. Then you wouldn't want it as it wouldn't be unique.

I wonder if one of the companies that makes the after market parts for the Collision/Insurance industry could make them for any less $ ?

Wow that looks sick, I've never seen those pictures.

Wish they would have had an svt/roush/saleen model similar to that out of the factory. A real sportier look. Would look even better with a metal mesh grille in the front bumper, and the lower rear bumper in between the tips.

That was the FIRST pic of a Marauder I ever saw! I was shopping for superchargers for a Duratec Taurus when I found Trilogy and changed my car purchase to the silver '04 that I currently worship.

i figured it was custom... well my brother does autobody and knows that it would be way too much work to make one too... but dang it looks good. its missing the spoiler though (im a proud owner of the factory rear spoiler.... i love it):P

I haven't seen those pics before. Very nice:D, with the shorter front and rear bumpers it makes the car look more like a European car such as a BMW or Benz.

Maybe we should send an email to these guys,

And tell them to manufacture the exact same kit as posted above, to replace the ugly-ass body kit they have for vics on there.

And the pics do not do the car any justice.
You should see it in person. :eek: Un brlievable!

I still say the rear of the GT kit is ok. But the front end shouldn't look like a professional rally car.

The trilogy reminds me of a large Lincoln LS.

Thats a good thing to ME.

as it is to me! i would love a lincoln ls... buti still own a considerable amount on my MM. not saying i dont love my marauder, but i don tfeel bad doing the usual wear and tear on a lincoln as much as i do the marauder. ya we al have fun every now and then, but for my sake i baby it so much that after having fun, i want to give it a massage and tell her ill never do it again:shake:

oh and the ls is now a small yamaha 3.8 v8 and a manual gearbox, gotta love it!

+1 Same here, I want an LS so badd, but owe a *****load on my MM, so can't even contemplate getting one. And I also wouldn't want to get rid of my TownCar.

The lincoln was the car I wanted before a Marauder.

And only the V6 got a manual, not to many though, rare option.

Yes only the V6 got the manual. I have driven one and it surprised me, it felt like it had the V8. The V6 with the automatic is a dog, very big difference between the two. Good luck to find one with the V6, I have only seen two and that was while I was working at Lincoln/Mercury.

I believe he meant that manu-matic or whatever they are calling it.

I think they did have a manual in it up 'till 2002.

And this trilogy bodykit is great, would be even better if it still had MARAUDER on the back bumper.

We have a hood now. Someone must make a bodykit.

Any suggestions as to what it should look like would be deeply appreciated.

I would pay a large sum of money for that trilogy kit, even more if it said MARAUDER on the rear bumper like the stock one does.

this is extremely tempting....i KNOW i could build one. I've got plenty of plastics experience, and i love it....it's just a lack of funds that prevent me from taking on the challenge. I think using a cobra and marauder front bumper, i could probably use the two along with some misc. pieces and make one....i'll try to keep an ear open so if the bodyshop i worked at gets anything close i can try and get a start on something.

Yes they did, it was only available for one or two years. :D
