Default Ordered my Tanabe exhaust, still same price

Heard that showstopperusa increased their price to 599 if I'm not wrong.

Just ordered mine, paid $549. No price hike

I'm guessing they don't order from Carson because he charges hundreds of dollars more for it.

$760.

Whereas showstoppers is $549 delivered.

There is a GB a while back, it might be still good. And he said they will do price match in one post a while back as well, that's how I get mine, 549, free shipping from Carson. Call Luis and find out can they still do price match.

That's over $800 w/shipping!

I paid too much couple of months ago paying $665 delivered from Carson.
$800+ is ridiculous when you can buy the same system for $549 delivered.

well, i have already paid by PAYPAL $549, I don't think they can charge me extra , unless I paid by credit card.

Now my order is processed and will be out today.

NO WAITING LIST

TFZ, let us know when you get shipping confirmation.

I may buy one of these from ShowStoppers if they are still honoring the $549 price

Well, I spoke to Luis from Carson Lexus....looks like price did go up, but he said he is in the process of making a group buy for us ClubLexus folks in a couple of weeks!

Also, just an fyi, Tanabe does not have ShowStoppers listed as an authorized distributor.

Yup, which means Carson is going to be our best price now for it.

Very lame. I was going to order this week too. Id like to find out when Carson is going to do a group buy and if so, how much they would be. Man, I should have bought 10 exhausts for $550 shipped and then sold them to everyone on here. BTW, why was there a 20% increase in the price of the exhaust? That is a serious price hike.
