Holiday Special - Group Buy - What Are You Interested In?

Well we are excited to join the forum and want to pass it on to the members. In a few days we will be announcing a year end group buy for Kleemann performance upgrades. However, what else is everyone interested in and we can set something up. We carry Brabus, Carlsson, Kleemann, Lorinser & Renntech. Post your ideas....

If I'm not mistaken, Valentine 1 pricing is standard. No dealer gets a break on it.

I knew I would get a valentine one response. Three things -

1. They have no gps (so learning speed traps etc)

2. They have no camera database. i will give up debatable loss in detection for having a warning of camera zones that don't always use radar or laser.

3. They don't give price breaks. Escort does for group buys. I am not a vendor so when I was gathering interest my thread was deleted (my bad for not using group buy forum)

Love my valentine 1 but still f***ed when it comes to laser..... still highly recommended..... how 'bout group buy on 82mm throttle body kits?.... depending on how cheap you could go..... think a few people would be interested and should work for all 55k cars? Just a thought.

We could definitely work something out for the throttle body kits if we have interest of 5 or more people.

Problem being (for me, at least) if you only have access to the RennTech kits, with a list price round 3k, it would have to be a smokin' deal to compete with some other vendor's current prices....

We also carry Brabus, Kleemann, Carlsson & Lorinser parts. Post what parts you are interested in and if you want PM me the pricing we would need to be at. I will try my best to be competitive and set something up.

The most competitive pricing I can do for exhausts will be either from Carlsson & Lorinser. Any preference?

I'd love to see a groupbuy on a catback exhaust system, or perhaps headers that don't require a tune...
