2003-2004 Mercury Marauder vs 1999 Mercury Grand Marquis?

Question

I was wondering what are the stock #'s for 0-60 and 1/4 mile on both the 2003-2004 Mercury Marauder and 1999 Mercury Grand Marquis GS (42,000 miles on it). If both raced side by side who would win and by how much. Would there be a real noticeable difference?

Answer 1

the Marauder would win easily, but not as easily as the hp numbers would indicate.  they did other things that made the car heavier as memory serves that slowed it down.

Answer 2

On a 2003 Mercury Marauder, 0-60 takes 7.7 seconds, while the quarter-mile takes 15.6 seconds with a terminal speed of 94.1 mph. Even a 2007 Ford Crown Victoria Interceptor (the closest vehicle I could find to a regular-spec Grand Marquis) takes 8.1 seconds to 60, and ambles down the quarter-mile in 15.9 seconds@88.1 mph,
