Sounds about right, the first group buy only ended up having 5-6 people I think.

I hope so, it sounds a little ambiguous. I just want mine when it starts getting warm so I don't have to crawl around on a frozen garage floor. :shakes head:

Mainly due to the fact that it no solid dyno numbers had been produced at the time, nor even a "final" video clip with sound.

I went out on a limb and, after looking at their OTHER products...assumed that their 370Z offering would be just as good. To say the least, Im very pleased, and am looking forward to getting mine!

I hear that Bobo! To be quite honest, I based my buy on Mike's solid reputation and I also trust Minicobra's opinion. Besides, the sound, how sweet it is!

The first batch, arriving mid-Feb., is large enough to cover everyones order up to this point. Once the first batch arrives, they will have to be tweaked a bit in-house one at a time to ensure perfect tip alignment. They will be shipped out in order of the list, starting with the first order of GB1.

M.Bonanni 01-23-2010 11:04 AM

One spot left on the first batch...

Again, if you don't make the first batch, you can still get in on the group buy as long as your deposit is paid before the 31st. If you do not get in on the first batch, your exhaust will ship in April.

azn370z 01-23-2010 03:45 PM

Payment sent.

M.Bonanni 01-23-2010 03:57 PM

Alright, the first batch is all sold out.

Those who still want to get in on the group buy pricing for the exhaust will have to wait for the second batch, due in April. I still recommend getting in on the group buy as after the 31st, you will not be able to get these exhausts for this price. Berk will be sold out completely on these until April so there is no matter what, if you want this exhaust, you will have to wait. Might as well get in when the pricing is good!

A nice, clean Magnetic Black 370Z on the race track. I hope to have a picture of mine in a similar setting soon.

Photoshop is magical lol. It wasnt that clean :). But the sky/surrounding trees were that beautiful...

roplusbee 01-23-2010 07:19 PM

That sig is pretty nice. The original pic is very nice as well.

niss370z 01-24-2010 04:40 PM

IDZRVIT 01-26-2010 03:27 PM

Also interested here in Canada at B4B 1X5. PM details please.

M.Bonanni 01-28-2010 12:05 PM

Less than a week left to get in on this group buy! If your deposit is not in before midnight (PST) on Sunday then you've missed the chance!

niss370z 01-29-2010 01:29 PM

can you put me on the list and send me the paypal link

zeebra 01-29-2010 04:38 PM

I'm still on the fence about this exhaust - My 370z is a DD. I had a 350 with a Top Speed 2.5" exhaust and test pipes - obviously extremely loud. But I think something like the new Invidia Gemini might be too quiet.. Anybody have any ideas if this will work for me? Thanks for your help.

On my wife's old 350Z we had HKS exhaust and test pipes and it was a lot louder than the Berk CBE and Berk HFCs. I think if you stick with the stock cats you will be more than happy, then if thats too quiet, upgrade to HFCs.

zeebra 01-29-2010 05:35 PM

Cool thanks for getting back to me soo quickly. You dont happen to have a sound clip without HFC?

Nope, unfortunately not. This exhaust has been installed on two cars only, both with Berk HFCs already on them.

370Zsteve 01-30-2010 07:44 AM

I plan on installing with stock cats and will post a vid, I guess sometime in March?

M.Bonanni 01-30-2010 11:39 AM

Group buy ends tomorrow! I will have limited access to computers today and tomorrow to answer PMs. If you want in on the group buy, send your $300 deposit via PayPal to sales@doubledownmotorsports.com. Deposits must be in before midnight tomorrow, 1/31/10.

When the 1st GB went through, the understanding (from what I saw) was that it was still several months out. Now that the "hype" has turned real and the pipes are actually going to be shipped soon, the interest has sparked yet again and lots of newer members want the opportunity to participate in a GB for this exhaust.

Those customers/members will still be taken care of, I'm assuming, as first priority above 2nd GB customers, so no worries.


Also, the GB ends 1/31/2010, does that mean there is no chance of any units shipping until after that date?

Thats not entirely true, Myself and the other first GB buyers had been told an initial shipping date of the end of september 2009, which at that point was delayed to a ship date of November/December and then at that point was delayed until an expected ship date of Mid Feb, now it seems like that is still the plan and we will be getting ours the First of March.

Berk has been good about keeping in touch with us as far as the delays have went and I'm glad that they seem to care about their customers, Overall I'm still happy with my choice in going with this exhaust. I just really hope it shows up in March like we have now been told it will. I do believe they are making sure this product is great for us customers and we will all be very happy once they arrive.

Woot Woot! Payment sent! add me to the list!
