Had a few minutes to kill last weekend after cleaning the Marauder so thought I would get a few pics.

Beautiful. Of course, I am a little partial to the appeal of Blue. Love those red calipers, too. :2thumbs:

Thanks guys, I am very partial to the blues too. She's got a way to go yet, the finish isn't 100% but #133 is in far better condition than she was a year ago when I adopted her. She looks great for 60K miles. Next is the sound system, John hooked me up great. Then the Trilogy...hopefully installed within a few months.

That's a funny comparison, the G8 and MM. I'll allow an owner of both to compare as I know there is at least one here. Personally I like the G8 GT, handling, power and comfort with potential for great power. I test drove that one before my buddy bought it (he forgot his insurance card or something and we were already there so I got to test her out with him riding shotgun). He stole that thing fully loaded less sun-roof for $27K. Sticker on it was about $35K. Tune, intake and exhaust yields great improvements in power. The one thing I don't like in stock form is the shift points which are corrected with the tune much like a Lidio tune does for MM's. I like that pic and the G8 GT.

Congrats, that is as nice a Blue as I have ever seen. Get that Trilogy #133 installed. It will change your mind about G8 and about everything else. Heck, if I had a Trilogy waiting to be installed I wouldn't be wasting time at the computer or anywhere else. Git her done. Drive your gorgeous BLUE as it was ment to be driven... Like a Blue Streak. :D Dennis

Thanks guys, she's a work in progress but I love her. No pics for contests...not much for contests unless they involve the throttle.

Gary, yes, it took a while but the wheels were widened and the tread is on there even though you might not notice from the shots I posted in this thread. Thanks for your advice and feedback.

Thanks Chad, she's coming along nicely. I recall that conversation a year ago and appreciate your feedback; as you can see I'm a keen listener. Hope you're doing well.
