View Full Version : Raffled Trilogy #81 is For Sale

I’d like to thank everyone for making this raffle a success. Even though I don’t think I’ll be able to attend MVIII, I’m very happy that it’s setting pace to be a great showing.
I had initially purchased these two raffle tickets thinking that I had fairly good luck and might just win, but really that I was helping out a good cause. Little did I know I would actually win the Trilogy kit! I’m thankful I had the opportunity to participate and even more grateful that I won.
Oddly enough, the day before the raffle drawing I had just driven home from Carfixer’s place with my newly installed Trilogy #79; I just couldn’t wait for the raffle and had ordered it some weeks earlier on my own. Having one Trilogy kit is a blessing; two is a miracle! However, this leaves me in an interesting position.
I’ve been weighing my options. It was suggested that I should build up another motor with forged internals and the whole bit and slap this new blower on it. Another option was to pickup a good deal on a second Marauder some day and have two charged cars. Really though, neither option is right for me right now. So, I think I’m going to offer it up for sale and see what happens and offer someone else the opportunity to get this very well engineered product at a discount.
I have the kit in my possession in Miami, Florida minus the custom chip and decals. Once I figure out the car that this kit will go on, Trilogy will mail out these items specific to the intended car. This kit is Trilogy #81.
Here’s the deal. I’m going to put an asking price of $4800 (plus shipping, locals are free to come and get it) or best offer. This isn’t a price and sell, more like an auction. The starting is $4800, but you can make greater offer if you wish.
Please PM your offers to me. I’ll let this stay up for the next few days and see what I get. First to $5500 gets it, or the next highest if not. If you’re interested in this excellent kit and would like to save some money on the purchase, this is a good option.

Can I use my $300 off Trilogy coupon? :D
All kidding aside, perhaps you can post the highest bid as they come in so folks can get an idea of where it stands at any given point of time. Otherwise you'll be getting a bunch of lower bids when a higher has already been accepted.

Yowsa! $4800 for a brand spankin new complete kit!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If anyone wants Trilogy kit, this is the place to start.
Even if it auctions up to the $5500 point, that's still $500 off the list price.

Hi Everybody,
Just wanted to say thanks for all of the interest. So far, I've gotten a few offers for $4800. As stated, this is a really good deal on a brand new Trilogy kit that would normally cost $6k + shipping. Let's keep this going and see where it goes.

Hi Guys...I had someone send me a PM and asking me about the warranty on our kit, even from a 3rd party. I talked to Jerry and YES, we will still honor our kit warranty as if you had purchased it directly from Trilogy. Please see below:
All parts are guaranteed for 1 year, no questions asked. If the a part or parts are returned for any reason, Trilogy Motorsports will pay for all shipping charges. The failure of the part has to be the result of a quality, manufacturing or customer satisfaction defect.
In regards to your "vehicle warranty" this is from our FAQ from our website:
Vehicle Warranty
Question: Will the installation of an aftermarket supercharger affect my vehicle warranty from Ford Motor Company ?
Answer: Yes, make sure you speak to your dealer and determine what they will service after the supercharger in installed. This varies based on the dealer and their understanding of a supercharger. We have Ford bad Lincoln/Mercury dealers installing our kits on customer cars and they are satisfied that the supercharger will not adversely affect the dependability of the vehicle. But there are also dealers that will not honor any warranty claim if the vehicle has had any modifications. We have installed supercharger kits on cars with no mileage and we have installed supercharger kits after the customer if off their vehicle warranty. There have not been any engine, transmission nor driveline failure as a result of the installation of our supercharger kits. If you are concerned about your vehicle warranty, CHECK WITH YOUR DEALER!
Please let me know if you have any additional questions....TGIF :beer:

I know the feeling, I had to sell both 70 conv cutlass projects and my 84 Cutlass Supreme because the Mrs. decides she wants to build a guest house out back, :( so now I have to make a stash on the side for the Blue MM im hunting for and get all this done before even thinking about a S/C :help:

Hi,
I just wanted to give everyone an update. I've had several messages and offers. So far, there are a few bids in the lower $5k range, all sent with great enthusiasm! As I said before, I'm going to let this go for a while and see what happens, so keep the questions and offers coming!
If you're seriously considering a Trilogy upgrade, this is a great opportunity as there is no difference in purchasing this kit from me instead of Trilogy directly (except for the lower cost!). As Donna stated in a previous post, this kit is brand new and carries a full warranty.

I am sure the Rick will make sure the warranty paperwork for this kit will go to the person he sells the kit to :D . If necessary, Trilogy will send another warranty form to the buyer of Rick's kit, once we know who the buyer is.

You got that right!
Trilogy 67 came with a defective blower. Once the diagnosis was made, a call to Trilogy was placed and a new blower was sent out. The blower was replaced and my car is better than ever.

Hi,
Just another update. The offers are still around the $5200 mark. If you have any questions about this kit, don't hesitate to message me.
Believe me, after 1000 miles on my #79 install, it's worth every penny!

Hi Everyone!
I'd like to thank everyone who sent in an offer; I really appreciate the enthusiasm! Trilogy #81 has now been sold. I'll hold back on announcing the lucky bidder and let him make that announcement on his own.
Thanks again!
