AAM Competition VQ37 Intake Manifold Pre-sale!!!

One of my dad's sayings comes to mind. 'Cart before the horse". Probably would have been a good idea to develop before advertising. This could be a great product, but

Yep, blowing their wad too soon, taking money and back pedaling for six months makes them look like GTM. This will probably be a good part, but this should be a Harvard business school case on how not to launch a product.

Except this case is probably too stupid to make into HBS cases...they took money without even a working prototype...AAM didn't even iron out the logistics and QC before making the announcement.

Michael, was this your bright idea to jump the gun or your boss made you do this? And yes, I would ask the same question in the same tone if I meet you in person.
