Hey everyone,
Hello everyone!
My name is Chad and for my 25th birthday (4/15/12), I treated myself to a favorite car of mine....an '03 Marauder in Dark Blue Pearl. I've liked Marauders since they were new (I remember seeing them at the Minneapolis Auto Show in '03 or '04 and thinking how awesome they were) and I started looking around this spring for one. I knew they made a LOT of them in black, but I knew there were other colors as well. I was searching the local auto trader for Marauders on Easter Sunday, and I found one was recently traded in at a local Honda dealer, so I emailed on it, and I was VERY surprised/happy to hear it was DARK BLUE (not even knowing yet how rare Dark Blue Pearl is) as opposed to the much more popular Black....AND it had the lighter leather interior AND heated seats! I was sold!
So I went out there on Monday, drove it (never drove a Marauder before), fell in love and agreed to trade my '00 Regal GS in on it. Completed the deal on Friday the 13th and had myself an awesome birthday present!
(It didn't occur to me until after I agreed to buy it that ONLY 328 DARK BLUE PEARL MARAUDERS WERE EVER MADE!!)
I LOVE this car, probably the favorite one I've ever owned (right up there with the '99 Mercedes Benz S320 I had for a couple of years) and am looking forward to putting many miles on it!!
Here's some pics!
