PM me the bottom price and I will let you know tomorrow. If it's agreed upon I can get the car to you ASAP.

Wow.... No offense to anyone, but this is one heluva drama thread... It’s like a never-ending novel... I wonder if it fizzles or has a happy ending - maybe a diabolical twist?... One thing is for sure, it's much like a soap opera - it goes on forever but nothing really ever changes...

Again, not trying to offend - just an observation... it's quite fascinating actually. Damn, I need another hobby

The cost of "parts" should be eaten as part of your R&D costs. Had you done so, this would have been to market months and months ago.

Blaming the community for not "stepping up" to assist you with your commercial venture is one of the silliest things I've seen on the intraweb in months. You either have the resources or you don't. And you apparently don't.

Good luck with your 2010 G42 exhaust project !

Now thats not nice. I mean these guys are trying to do everything they can to get this exhaust out. If you don't like what they are doing then mayb you should pm them about it instead of posting it in here.

I hate to add to this, but I would not be surprised if they decided not to produce this exhaust because of all of the grief being generated.

I, personally, am in no hurry, but I know that can change once I get bored and start thinking about the car again. If you cannot wait, then go get one from somewhere else.

Just a laugh, but thankfully my friends will not think less of me because I don't have an aftermarket exhaust system on my car.

They do laugh because I still think my 20 year old 300ZXTurbo is cool .

Did the other manufactures go thru this with their exhausts?... I know a couple of people that had some input with Stillen when they designed theirs - but I'm 99.99% certain it wasn't done on public boards. I’m relatively certain they didn't squabble about whose car to use.

How many entrepreneurs expect to "borrow" resources for R&D? I understand that the software industry and aftermarket carparts industry are not the same, but if I must integrate my product with another product, I must first purchase that product. Part of doing business.

Here is the deal, we are not like the rest of the larger companies out there. They dont ask for anyones input on any of this kind of stuff. I included all of you back in the beginning because I wanted to produce a product that all of you wanted, not the other way around. I actually am in contact with a customer that is willing to drive here from Colorado to be my test car. It is not like I haven't already built an exhaust for all of you. I have 6 of them gathering dust and my test guy at the time backed out. For all of you that are becoming very impatient, you need to either ease up or buy something else. Yes the wheels are turning slow at the moment, but they are turning. You all keep putting in your 2 cents because I honestly believe you know we will build a superior product. There will be a great price for the group buy and everyone who is on that list will get a great deal for being so patient...Thanks, Tony

Ironic how when people state opinions and impressions out here there is a hint of backlash... however, FI still needs the help of the people with opinions and impressions...

I'm not trying to fuel any fire here - I'm just stating my simple observations.
