1K is a bit much for this "reasonably priced" car. Hopefully the intro price will be lower than that.

I had one before it was the best car I ever own. Nothing even come close to what that car has to offer at that time period. We are talking about 17 years ago.

My brother in law has one of these ARK exhausts for his Genesis coupe. Looks good so far. Not going to make a gang of power unless you boost the FRS. Also, the market is going to be swamped with exhaust options in a yr or 2 based on how things are going. I expect exhaust systems to be in the $600 to $700 range. I bet OBX and the like are going to come out with some cheap copy cats lolz.

Yeah, It still gets priority in my garage even though the FR-S will be new. Ha ha!

Agreed. I paid close to $1400 for my ARK exhaust but I don't think the target price range of this car will allow for a price above $1000. If ARK wants to sell a lot of these they will need to price it in the $700-$900 range.

Based on the fact that the Genesis isn't much more expensive than the FR-S and the price they charge for that exhaust. I don't have much confidence that this exhaust will be any less expensive.

That made in japan exhaust by M7 looks mighty attractive if this is to be priced at $1600 msrp..

Or I would go for something like AP/Perrin/SRT thats under 1g

Our 2nd prototype will be coming in from Korea next week. Once perfect fitment and sound tests are confirmed, we will be hosting an Introductory Special.

Hint: It will be the cheapest we will be releasing this product for. In addition, there will be only 15 sets sold at this price.
