    My '04 Marauder's mileage is in the teens. It has collector car insurance with an agreed valve of $25k. I had to get the car appraised for the $25k as there is no past history of value on the MM. So I set some ground work for the future.

    Oh yea, the plastic cover by throttle body has the MM designer's signature (forgot his name)

    My car is banged up, rusty, squeaky, and generally tired. It also has 205k miles on it and has NEVER left me stranded. In the 30k miles I've had her I've done nothing but routine repairs that are to be expected on something this age. Even with all that, I STILL get people checking the thing out. To me, my car is staying with me for these reasons:

    It's paid for.
    It's cheap to insure.
    It's comfortable and quiet (while cruising, of course).

    For those reasons, and the ability to wipe the smiles off snot-nosed Honda Civic drivers, I'm quite sure my beast will be with be until it rots out or blows up.

    Oh, and I would be lucky to get $2k for my car. Hardly worth my time to sell given how much I enjoy hearing her fire up every day!

    I forgot to add to my above: the coolest Marauders, are the Marauders that have 200,000+ on them, and have provided 200,000 plus smiles for thier owner.

    Good on ya brother! Someday I hope to be there too!

    Hey, I said the opposite, and rather eloquently too!

    Steve Babcock was the project manager, he enlisted Roush to fit the power plant in and was responsible for all the nice luxury items and smooth ride.

    Per the Hagerty Valuation Tool®, 2003 Marauders have been increasing in value since Sept 2015. Currently, condition 1 value is $26,200. The value for lowest (Fair) condition is $10,500. Rare color models should be significantly more.

    Thanks for this. When I registered my Marauder for the first time here in NC this past April, the DMV tax accessor valued the car at $4600 - I paid $12k for my immaculate 39k mile car. Would be an easy #2 in the Hagerty document.

    MartyO has seen, driven and worked on it. I enlisted MartyO’s shop to update it the way I thought Mercury should have built it originally, within reasonable costs and production values. KBB, Edmunds, etc. all state the car is worth between $4k and $8k - sad.

    If totaled, State Farm will probably pay the tax value? They did surprise me with my totaled ’98 Mustang and paid out about $1k more than book value, due to the car’s condition/upkeep I was told. My car rates went up 62% for 3 years due to being in a single vehicle accident.

    2005 Mustang GT Premium
    2019 Ranger Lariat Super Crewcab 4WD
    2015 Triumph Trophy SE

    What are you saying?
    You saying that all supercharged marauders owners would be lucky to get 20K for a supercharged marauder?

    You paid 8? 9 grand for your low mile marauder recently, damn good deal.

    Every car is different, you cant say that all are worth under 20K.
    Is that what you are saying?
    Your statement a few posts down that i quoted, maybe i misread it. I have been know to get lost in punctuation.

    Buddy of mine just bought a 13K trilogy silver birch for north of 20K, cars mint.
    I do see them sell for more than 20k,...

    The right person can have mine for a fair negotiated price, will it be less than 20k, probably not, or maybe so, I kinda dig the idea of parting it out...
