Here are four Mercury Marauders from our club in Florida. There were only four original colors, and this represents all four. Mine is the red one.

With the help of PSCS, I managed to slip in a very non Florida background. I guess I could have put it on the Travel Forum, but it's mostly about old men's big old heavy hot rods. :D

Mike, none of those cars were actually there. The orginal shot was taken at a car meet in Florida. I put the Golden Gate Bridge in with blended layers in Photoshop. Glad you like it.

That's true BIGTUFFGUY. With a good tune, 4:10 gears, and after market exhaust system, it's pretty quick for a big sofa. And. . . . built in Canada. ;)

Very nice picture, exceptional job on the chop, and a fine selection of automobiles!

The Marauder shares the 03/04 Cobra's 32V 4.6L, correct? Does it have the supercharger as well?

That was true initially. They brought out the other colors later, and were only in production for two years. I don't remember the numbers, but blue is the rarest color.

Great shot, but I ask, can we believe the colours? That Orange bridge looks very red to me :D

Neil, I may have pushed the saturation just a bit, but I think that was done before the cars were blended in. You Brits are so "proper". . . . ;)
