    Got her 2 weeks ago, finally checking in from Iowa.

    I just picked up an '03 black Marauder. Low miles, almost 44,000 by now. And I got it for a very low price.

    I wanted one when they came out but was in no way able to afford one.

    Coming from a long time driving Fox Mustangs the size of these definitely takes some getting used to. I am truly surprised that a car of this size and weight handles so well.

    That being said, I am off to search the forums for the best mods to start adding to my new baby.

    Welcome to our world, the Marauder is a great car and there is a ton of information here on the forum.

    You are not to far from where I grew up (Centerville). However it has been a whole lot of years since I lived in Iowa.

    Again, welcome to the forum.. Puts a smile on your face.

    Welcome to the Madness... or is it Modness. I guess it depends on what you call mods or necessary improvements.
