Here's for anybody in the DFW area looking for a Marauder console and door panels. I spoke with the guy and he is so far off on pricing it is ridiculous. He wants no less than $400 for just the console and at least $600 for everything. It just always blows my mind what people think these things are worth, they are not in that high of demand or really that rare. I have found complete interiors in salvage yards around here for $600 in great condition.

None the less here you go:

I'm actually considering this one as a parts car. It's a high-mileage example, and the color is off on the header panel, leading me to beleive it may have some accident repair. Seller doesn't say what the problem with the transmission is. I sent a message to the seller asking for more details. If the reserve is low enough, I have relatives near Harrisburg who will keep it for me for a while til I get up there.

If nothing else, used transmissions can be found under $500, so even fixing it where it would drive wouldn't be that expensive.

Judging by his buy it now price, the reserve is likely too high. I'm guessing the reserve is around $1800 and that's more than I'd want to spend because I'm betting the condition is pretty bad in person. The Autocheck shows it was used as a taxi.

Someone explain the logic here for me.

Buy LX Sport.

Ditch Alloy 17" Five Spokes Sport wheels with 17" Cop Car steelies and wheel covers
Remove Carpet, and Replace with Rubber Floor.

Whacker logic...

I bet they wanted the carpet for another car and the wheels for another car and simply swapped on P71 parts. Was in accident also with airbag deployment.

My wife works at that dealership and that's where my car came from. That car makes no sense. You can tell by the VIN that it is truly a Sport, but the wheels and floor make no sense. Think someone could have ordered one that way?

Regardless, that is my DREAM color. I'm going to have my wife look it over real good tomorrow. I might own that car soon. I already have wheels for it and can easily buy a new carpet kit for it.

The '06 is doing fine. I've been modding it as quickly as I can with the finances available. The more I dig deep into it, the more I see what a sad life it probably had. It is a fantastic car from 10' and your average person would never notice the small details that show what it has been through. Tonight I patched about 10 holes in the trunk that were drilled through to the outside and not sealed or rust protected. I keep finding cut wires in the dash and trunk. The right rear shock is bent and was touching the body at one time. These things are just rode hard and not decomissioned well. At least that's accurate for mine.

My Dad has an '05 LX Sport with double the miles as mine and it's actually in better shape. Civilian life is just easier on them.

Yeah trust me I noticed that on my last 04' CVPI. After I bought it everyday I noticed a little thing here and a little thing there wrong with it. From burned out dash lights, cut wires, holes in roof, holes in firewall, bent body mounts, etc..

My new P71 was so well taken care of by the Feds and literally saw 70k pampered miles. I paid quite a bit more for it than my last 04 but I did discover now you get what you pay for. I was crazy to think a $3500 P71 would be issue free! Granted after I fixed everything on it, it was a good car. But that was money that had to be put into it.
