So I can probably just research this, but the HPI cars only come in White, Black and Cement, right? Very tempted, but it'd have to be in gray...

paid at retail price + tax

but they personally delivered the system to me and helped me with the install...basically all/any of the dealership stuff was cut out of the picture
...no raised costs, no additional fees, no gimmicks, no install fees, etc.

and that was the plan....the videotaping/interview idea was thought up just a few days before the date of install

MSRP is $1,399.00 (via optomizescion.com or oemaudioplus.com)

personally, unless your buying a new tC2 with this already packaged from the dealership...i'd get it there and install it urself. the install is not hard...their recommended is 3 hours, i did it in 2.5 hours and thats with stopping to do some interview questions

if u do it at a dealership, they might charge u msrp or they might charge ur more than msrp...AND THEN charge u for install

it really is. it sounds like the music is coming right at out rather than just sound out of the music...like a surround sound home entertainment theatre system

the added tweaters in the back also make the vocals sound better for ur passengers

the bass hits without sounding like ur car is going into earthquake mode

you really have to hear it to get the feel of it....what area are you in? i can ask them and see if there is a dealership near you that has the system for u to demo
