Aside from its sinister look... :coolman:
It hides all the rubber that gets thrown on the rear quarter panels/lower bumper pretty well. :D :burnout:
Other than that its terrible. :alone:

Black has a deep luster & shine when in tip top shape.
On the other hand, it shows everything whether good or bad. No way to hide anything.
Don't forget good guys wear black! (Chuck Noris movie from 70s)

Heats up like a son of a Bee in the summer though! If I leave my sunglasses up above, they're too hot to put on!

I've honestly never been in a hotter car in my whole life. After a black car with black leather seats sits in the sun for an hour in 95 degree weather...its torture until your moving fast enough to get some air flow or have the A/C on...today was a good example. I'm sure there are many other sufferers on the rest of the forum as well, lol.

Well the answer to a HOT black marauder is very simple:)
Remote start. hit the button from afar and it's starts cooling while your walkin towards it:)

I bought mine in DTR because I was sick of cleaning my black tricked out ZX3 only to watch it get dirty again just sitting in the driveway. :(

I had a Lincoln Town Car with Leather seats, then I had a black ranger with cloth seats. I said I would never own a black car or a car with leather seats again. So what did I wind up buying? A black marauder with BLACK LEATHER seats. Makes for a burned booty. Now I have my grey corolla and cloth seats. Much better.

I don't know how to comment on this as a Corolla is neither a HOT car or a Cool car. :hmmm: :flamer:
Hope your still wearing your asbestos suit:D

+1 on the remote start... cool in the summer, hot in the winter. Need to find a way to activate the heated seats in the winter.

I used to do that every time I drove. :P I have steel-framed DARK aviators, those things were like a hot iron when I left them in the sunglasses holder up top.
Love my black car. :lovies:
And as far as heat and leather seats. 10% tint FTW!!! :banana2:

They are the same heaters used by the factory only the switches are differant. Mine are in the lower seat panel not up by the armrest. Switch is only active when the sar is on so when remoter start is active the seats units will heat-up if I leave the switch on when shutting the car off.
6 months after install the factory switch was advailable but I declined. I like the lower switch.
