Exclamation ***Group Buy: E55 AMG exhaust quad tips***

I am having a group buy due to popular demand from forum members. 5 to 10 W211 owners needed for this group buy. Standard bumpers must be replaced or modified to fit the exhausts. Kronen recommends a rear bumper replacement. Please email me your names and phone numbers so i can contact you regarding the pricing of the parts and labor. Also, please add your name in the list in this thread.

Right now its 20% off retail + CA tax if you reside in Ca. The group buy is for the muffler, not the tips. There is a shipping fee to anywhere in the Continental USA. As you guys are aware, the more W211 owners sign up on the list, the better discount i can give.

I do not want to barge in on any groupbuy - but I am quite sure that AMG quad exhausts for the E320, E350 & E500 can be bought for less (1500-1600USD) including shipping and excluding groupbuy discounts...



greetingz,

I agree with that. These parts could be bought from the dealer for way less then that.

I am interested to see a breakdown of the price. How much for the exhaust and shipping to the Bay area?

I forgot about the exact price for FedEx shipment (approx. 3 business days), but I believe it was somewhere between USD 225-250. The remainder is for a W211 AMG quad exhaust with template and mounting gear...

greetingz,

Nevertheless, if its 1500-1600 USD, there will be tax duty on it. So either way, i dont think US customers get it for that price.

Actually you can order it from US Dealer as a replacement part for E55.

Any dealers in CA will quote you retail or 5-10% off plus tax.

Price = $1600, if not reside in CA. CA customers include CA sales tax of 8.75%
Labor (Modifying rear bumper and installing the muffler) = $200
Shipping = Will be calculated. (Address is needed)

Is $1600 your new "retail" price, meaning there's an additional 20% off if you find enough buyers? Or is the $1600 price your new "groupbuy" price?

Its the groupbuy price for 5 persons at the moment. It might get lower as more people join in!
