View Full Version : Buying an SLP? Save at least $30!!!
jaketuff

If you are buying an SLP you can save up to $70 by getting together in a Group Buy. With 2-5 people we can go through APOC and save $30 off the face price, instead of $380, the system would be $350.
Post here if you are ready to buy....

If we can muster 6 orders together thru APOC we can have the system for $300!!!!;)

Just FYI ... After all the "horror" stories I read on this board about how "loud" the SLP is, I must say that I was shocked when I finally got it installed. It was nothing like everyone makes it out to be. And as for the soundclips on this site, I think they jammed the microphone up into the tailpipe! :D
I wouldn't sweat it.

Believe me....I've heard it in person on an otherwise stock car, and it's loud. Maybe I'm just getting old....:rolleyes:

I suppose we should figure out who's ready now and who wants to wait until winter's over. Personally, I'd rather wait until winter is over and the snow/salt are gone off the roads - I'd rather not mess up a brand-new exhaust right away. It'd be better for everyone if we can all agree on a purchase time to maximize savings.

FOB means free on board... its shipping costs terms in accounting... But its FOB shipping point from what has been said since its a shipping charge added to it.

SO WHO IS IN FOR THE GROUP ORDER SO FAR?
As of 1/28/03

Even with 6 buyers the cost will be $350 due to shipping issues.

2. 75thAnnGT

Orders may be placed directly to Aleroboy/American Performance of Colorado. We must call to alert him that you are in the group purchase. The $350 price is before shipping and insurance, John can provide a shipping quote. You can reach John at his store, (719) 635-3693.

Aleroboy is the owner of the Shop... he will be accepting the payment directly. That makes this very easy, you just buy your exhuast individually, but you are part of the group order, so you will get the $310 pricing.
EVERYONE PLEASE CONFIRM YOUR ORDER.
*I shall update the above post on this page. When we confirm the 7 orders we can send the payment to Aleroboy, and he can order the Exhuasts for us.;)

Pat,
I am confirming my order. Is that $310 including shipping? And what is Aleroboy's PayPal address?
Just out of curiousity, I noticed you have a Borla according to your n-body registry. Why are you getting a SLP now?
we should really be doing this in march or something.
And im waiting on a final price $310 is w/o the shipping as stated by AB earlier
jaketuff
01-28-2003, 11:48 AM
$310 is without the shipping. It will be shipped from Aleroboy essentially. We are purchasing them thru his store. This is the best way.
Kitt, we can order them now and put them on in March (for Spring), and we can get them cheaper now with the group buy... when March arrives you may not be able to get in on one. Tax return will pay for the sucker anyway!
Pat
2kramairGT
01-28-2003, 12:05 PM
Im definately ready to order for $310, just hope shipping is about $50. COunt me in. Thanks
Order Confirmed.
Will we be able to pay credit card over the phone or something?
aleroboy
01-28-2003, 12:37 PM
Well with the way shipping is the final cost wont really be below 350.
with the 6+ they all have to be shipped to me and then I have to ship them out. so shipping will be almost 90 instead of 50.
so the 350 is about as low as it will go even if we get more than 5 :(
So we are looking at $390 shipped. Prices change in feb so we need to get this moving soon.
Orders can be done over the phone or through paypal.
my paypal number is Johnbelveal@hotmail.com
and my phone is 719-635-3693

For the sound! She sound very strong, the Borla sounds rather subdued, until WOT. I want the power to be noticeable at idle as well.;)
In February prices on the system will be likely going up!!!

This is Aleroboy's online store. We are purchasing thru him. Because the group order thru him is CHEAPER. 11 orders would be very beneficial (see caps).

In the event that we get more people in on this group buy and end up with an even cheaper price, will those of us who have already paid the $390 get some of that back?

Aleroboy must order the systems at one time for the discount. So we cannot get any cash back. The discount is effective for a one time order from SLP.
JOUT
The SLP isn't loud. If you want loud go with the Flowmaster 40 series with aftermarket headers, that will make you have a headache.
