GReddy Comfort Sport GTS ver2.

There are only 2 being sold in the US. Someone please buy before I do or give me reasons to get it. I cannot find clear pics of the tips showing whether they are dual-walled/inside tapered like the SP Elite. Pics floating around the web do not match between different sites (for example the "GReddy" banner is more hidden along the midpipe in one site). Can anyone here who knows Japanese find more info/vids/reviews on it from Japan? I'm wondering whether they're mass-produced in Japan or, if not, why not.

GReddy is holding one for me (Limited Edition in my name ) but I can't pull the trigger.

I wouldn't trust that ad. It doesn't say only 2 will be, it just says they have only imported 2 atm

Might be a feeler sale with more being imported depending on how much demand this generates, if any. I've been following this since Trust revealed it last summer.

Price is so steep! Pricing is like STI sports muffler, heh.

GReddy SP Elite not satisfactory anymore?

It probably wouldn't be noticeable to 98% of us but I'm sure it'll feel and sound great once it's below your car

GReddy called me today and I told them it was ok to unhold it for me... both are now sold! Thank goodness. They also confirmed it was discontinued by Trust in Japan. Also found it odd that a customer in Japan posted this on 3/7/13 with the GReddy logo mounted in a different location:


Whereas the one GReddy USA was selling looks exactly like the prototype from August of last year. And the way the tips line up looks too far up/close to the bumper and uneven compared to my SP Elite and the STI exhaust. Too many red flags for my $1600.

Damnit Andrew... I was going to say I'll take it. Worse come worse I have a bunch of poly hangers that are different sizes.

Kind of sounds like one of those riding mowers landscape people use but it could be the mic i guess.
