I saw one of those around here in Rochester NY. The one mod or orginal factory spec was the carburated waterboxer not Fuel Injected. That is why it was in the shop and they could not find the parts to fix the carburator. No parts available from the US dealer. Per Lingren told me all about them as an aftermarket out of Germany. They have a web site with other platforms such as Fiat and Mercedes and the LT VW.
