Great Looking Loaded car, big price, I usually don't like skirts on a car, but they look good on this car. This car has the Blacked out rear panel that I like better than the vinyl roof option, But I would prefer the bucket seat interior to this cars Bench. Great looking rare High performance Merc! http://detroit.craigslist.org/okl/cto/4852354434.html
This one has been on Craigslist in Virginia for a long time. (Its Not mine) I went looking for this ad after seeing the pictures of the white one. I was hoping there was a profile photo for comparison, but there wasn't. The profile photo of the white one in Detroit would concern me. It appear that the front wheel is not centered in the wheel well, as though there could be some major front end suspension problems. I could be wrong, but it just doesn't look right. I would go for the blue one if I were looking for one. http://richmond.craigslist.org/cto/4846485375.html 1970 Mercury Marauder X100 - $6500 (Surry) contact by phone: ☎ 757-570-9791 Fresh Paint Job No Rust 429 Engine C6 Transmission Runs Excellent Needs interior/Headliner Redone Minor Rechroming Call or Text for more info
This Detroit example is extremely high priced, but I've always been a fan of the unique styling of the Marauder X-100.
Only a 69/70 Marauder X100 could drag me away from Buick. No other car/brand/model could achieve that!
Having owned a 1969 Marauder X-100, I can say that I love the styling and they have tremendous power. That said, it just felt too big on the road, and especially trying to park.

While I do like it in Black, it loses the unique Flat Black rear panel in that Color, one of the things I always Liked about them. I dont car for the Vinyl top version of the car at all.
Just thought I would show everybody where the 'X-100' name came from.... In the mid 50's, Ford did a show car, calling it the X-100. You can see the influence it had on later Thunderbird styling.... Warning - big pics.....
Krash, That does look like a cross between a mid 50's Lincoln and a mid 60's T-bird. Thanks for posting it.
