No MSF discount?

[Jh8909]

Called and talked to a representative at CP-E today. Called because I am planning on purchasing the new $1,061.75 austenite exhaust. I was hoping they were going to have some sort of tax return sale that I could wait for but that was hoping too high. I then remembered a few of the other vendors having an exclusive small discount for MSF because of vendor status. However when I asked they did not support that either.

It is an expensive product I know that. I also know you need to pay to play, however a small discount, no matter how little I think would be nice for all of us and be an extra incentive to give consumers to buy your products. Just some food for thought. Regardless I am still going to be purchasing it because in the end, it is the product I want.

Check out the sale rpm is going to be doing. I'm not sure if they offer the austenite bout they had the Triton and they pay shipping. It'll save you a lot

As Shwa said, buy from RPM. They have a stackable sale beginning 2/14: STACKABLE SALES COMING SOON!. 10% off tax return sale + 10% off CP-e products. That's 20% off. Plus their list price for the Austenite exhaust is already over $50 cheaper than what CP-e has it listed for on their site.

Edit: Seeing as you reside in Rockville, you'll be avoiding the Maryland sales tax by purchasing through RPM as opposed to CP-e as well...

We absolutely love when you guys buy direct from us, but when we are asked about a forum discount or any other discount we will generally refer you to one of our vendors. Most if not all have forum discounts and possibly free shipping or maybe some other kind of sale going on. This way you are supporting 2 businesses with 1 purchase keeping the growth of the mazdaspeed platform alive. Also, we do not like to undercut our vendors or try to "steal" sales from them as they are a HUGE part of our business. We hope you guys understand our reasoning behind this, but we think you guys do.

Thank you for the response, I understand and that is what I did. The RPM sale just happens to be perfectly timed.

Glad it worked out for you. The only sales we will do are the 4Brids, which is our Thanksgiving sale and the 12Days, which is our Christmas/holiday sale.
We LOVE our vendors and generally they will have better pricing than us.
Authorized vendors are the ONLY way to have our warranty honored also. We have no idea where unauthorized vendors get our parts or if they are genuine cp-e™ products.

Is the new cpe that quiet to spend 1000 bucks on it? I watched the video and it seems quiet but have you heard one In person? off topic, I see your running the willwood calipers, did they give any issues bolting up?
