no intro pricing discount
If you involve a 3rd party shop AND you have problems with the first runs of these kits, the $1000 in savings will be eaten up with additional labor charges. Then put a $ amount on your time going back and forth to the shop, getting rides, and being inconvenienced. Then factor in the frustration from shop finger pointing and lost enjoyment of the vehicle.

I'd rather wait and pay more later. My time is extremely valuable.

Typically intro prices are 10% to 15% discount. I highly doubt the kit price will increase much more than $500.00 after the initial intro price. It would be a very bad move on GTM's part to tack on $1000 to $1500 on the kit already. Over time it will get cheaper for them to produce the kit especially if the volume of sales is good they can leverage better deals with thier suppliers.

Believe me, I know the game, I own several business. Intro pricing as just a marketing engine and business do it becasue it works. I even do it myself when I release new products and/or services.

My advice would be to buy it when your ready, there are bound to be improvements in this kit over time as there are bound to be some minor unforseen issues that we as customers will no doubt encounter. This is nothing against GTM or any other company out there, its just a fact. As much as I want this kit now I am holding back my urge to grab the plastic and make the call. I want to see how things ride over a few months and hear some feedback.

The last two posts from above are also very valid points to consider and are highly possible!
