    This story reminds me of the Grateful Dead's "Truckin'": "What a long strange trip it's been."

    Thanks guys! Will be picking the car up the week before Christmas so I guess that will be my present this year.

    I've been following pretty much every step of the way with this car so I'm well aware of how much trouble both of you guys had with him. Glad it all worked out in the end so the Trilogy is running strong in yours I take it?
    Well you know if it wasn't for the Autobahn he wouldn't have blown the motor in the first place, it's all fun and games until some douche comes along who doesn't know how to handle it.

    For a behemoth like the Marauder that is unbelievably fast, I've only had mine up to 120, maybe 130 at times but the most I'll do on a regular basis is 100 mph. All vehicles manufactured in Germany must be restricted to 155 mph by law unless they undergo a specialized safety inspection to make sure that all components are able to withstand higher speeds.

    well that figures , he lied about it all. from start to finish . about the speed , the parts and the complete deal . only good that came out of it was I got exactly what I paid for and he lost the balance . case closed . hope you really enjoy that car .

    He probably did, I have yet to experience what a Trilogy is capable of, it's a very difficult and expensive process to legalize a Trilogy setup over here because our smog requirements are worse than California.

    Maybe if they are doing another Marauderville next year I'll try to catch a flight over to the States to experience a Trilogy. Or maybe I shouldn't because that would probably make me want one even more.

    Just brought the car home from Kaiserslautern, it drove amazing on the 5+ hour journey back to Paderborn and the Stainless Works exhaust system sounds awesome, I'll never get tired of that drone so I don't need a radio anymore.

    Here's a few pictures I took on the way, my route was close to the world famous Nürburgring so I just had to exit the Autobahn for a little photo opportunity. The actual track was covered in snow so unfortunately I could only park in front of the main entrance and grand stand.
