They will have to take my MTI on trade unless someone wants a to do a quick deal that will definetly be a steal. I always thought the boat was cool but too gimicky with all the Mercedes stuff. I love the extended back and that it can run well over 180. I know the opinion of most on OSO didn't like the boat. What are your thoughts without the Mercedes theme?

I guess I was one of the few that really liked the Mercedes theme. I would keep it and just improve on it or do what you want. Outside of OSO anyone who sees that boat is going to think that is the baddest boat on the water. my.02

The dashboard fell apart within the first 5 minutes of using the boat.

I believe T2x was on board.

I have only liked a few themed boats. Speedracer is nicely done. Northech showed a Turbine cat at the Miami show with an airplane theme that was tastefully done. This MTI has the dealers name over the whole side of the boat. Going to need a paint job. I personally think the themed boats are going to show thier true worth on resale value to the limited market.
