While studying under an artist residency program at the Akademie Schloss Solitude in [[Directory:Stuttgart, Germany|Stuttgart]], [[Directory:Germany|Germany]], she found the car that she knew would be perfect for her project: a [[1987]] two-stroke Trabant 601 Deluxe.  She purchased it in [[Directory:Berlin, Germany|Berlin]] for $400, insisting to her more cautious boyfriend at the time that it would be safe enough to drive on the Autobahn back to Stuttgart.  "I'm fucking driving this car," Cohen snapped.  They survived the trip, despite a top highway speed of 40 miles per hour.  Shipping the clunker to the United States cost at least seven times more than the car itself.
