FS - RennTech x-pipe Sydney Australia

Gents,

Thinking about going another direction so this could be up for sale. Thought I'd check if there's any interest. I've got an '09 63

Renntech want $2400 US new.

http://www.renntechmercedes.com/www/node/622

I've had it on my car now for approx 1500kms.

Uses all the factory clamps

$900

Cheers,
Dan

Yeah, happy to put it on ebay. Just thought given it's tentative I'd see if there was much interest here.

City Performance in Sydney charge more than this for their x-pipe if that's of any interest

The cost of one 2.5inch SS mandrel bend is about $60. That has 8 in total from what I can see + cost of labour+ cost of chroming.

All in all if a shop was to make this it would cost much less than $2400.

I think $900 is a fair price.

Cheers Grizzly, appreciate your thoughts. In saying that though, I'm not here to debate why Renntech charge what they do. If anyone is that interested, feel free to email them.

Simply, the build quality of this item is excellent, which you would expect from such a sticker price.

If anyone is interested feel free to PM. Happy for you to inspect on car or do whatever you need to feel comfortable with the purchase.

Cheers,
Dan

Good luck with the sale mate.

Let us know how you go with your new exhaust.

Looks like we have a few Sydney members here, maybe we can tee up a Sunday morning cars and coffee meet.

Sure, happy to meet. I live in the lower north shore.

Find me a buyer and I'll buy the coffees!

Hi All,

To any Prestige Euro owners in Sydney, I am hosting a car cruise tomorrow night.
It will start at Hickson Road, The Rocks and the drive will go to Palm Beach and back.

Meet time is 8pm and leave at 8.30pm *sharp*

Supercars, Exotic, Prestiege and Euro's are welcome.

Feel free to invite friends but please keep it in the above category.

A proffessional photographer will be present on the night for any shots of your car if you wish.

Here is a shot of the last event we did.
