The Marauder was a Failure from the get go because large used cars Romped on it!

Did the Marauder have any competition in the market of American cars no it was all alone and only for 2 years 1 less than the Impala SS. In 2005 Chrysler’s 300/Magnum then Charger came out with stout HEMI’s that would blow the MM away for good. In my opinion FOMOCO did what was right for them and stopped production of the MM and also because of its declining sales. In 03-04 these cars went for over 30k and today they are harder to come by and all go for over 10k with about 100k on them. That’s shows I could care even less for them because its rarity is its only true value. If you were looking for a full size performance sedan with RWD this isn’t a smart choice because they are more affordable Alternative used makes and models with extra scoot and luxuries. If it’s not a record breaker no one will care and the car will go unnoticed. Most of these cars have 5 speed autos which helps their smaller engines get the power down better the Chevy is underrated and it’s a good thing because corvettes get much more power than the specs say for impala.

98-00 Lexus LS400 290hp@6000rpm 300tq@4000rpm 0-60 6.3 1/4mile 14.8@97
93-up Mercedes S500/S600 326hp@5700rpm 354tq@3900rpm, S600 has V12 389-408hp and 420-428tq. 0-60 1/4mile

04-up Ford CVPI P71 250hp@5000rpm 297tq@4000rpm 0-60 7.8 1/4mile 15.9@88 people say these come close to the Impala SS/9C1 good choice if you looking for something newer and updated the 06 and up has 17inch wheels, new steering wheel, Speedometer with Tachometer/Digital odometer/Hour meter/Volt meter and Oil pressure gauges are gone, 3.55 axle ratio returns (now optional again since 01) and maybe some more things

If they are any other large RWD cars missing from the list that you would actually buy feel free to mention them and must be faster than the MM before year 2004
