They will pay over $28,000 for the leather/electronic dash/abs/traction control 2v motor luxury car, maybe even the bucket seat floor shift package when it was available, but could care less about the $5000 premium for a 4V motor.
The crowd who wants and can afford the 4V motor performance sees a Mustang Cobra in the same price range, and that is where the money goes.
Yup. Goto my CarDomain page. Haven't updated it, but I had the whole
Marauder idea conceived before the car was produced.
