View Full Version : BBK group buy; or when are the things on sale?

I remember a few brands of BBK sold outright by dealers being on sale last year without a group buy at amazing prices (Stoptech and Brembo), but I don't know when that was or even if it an annual thing. Anyone have insight as to if and when anything will be on sale, and if not, any dealer interested in doing a group buy?
I'd prefer Stoptechs just due to fitment with my wheels.... but in any case, I needs me a BBK and can't dish out the high price right now. Anyone else in this boat?
TIA

Well.. neither one allow Group Buys. However, we worked up a great deal and we'll PM anyone interested directly with the quote.
Also we'll include free shipping for customers in the continental US!
Please post exactly the kit you want, and we'll PM you.
- Your car info
- Brake Kit Brand (Stoptech or Brembo)
- Rotor Size (mm)
- Slotted or Drilled
- Zinc or no Zinc
- Type of Pads or just what comes with the kit (be specific if possible)
These links might help you find the exact kit you want:
BREMBO: http://www.performancecenter.com/ <- this site is funny.. it lists the retail price as the offer price! lol... and actually makes their "retail price" more expensive.. but it's a pretty complete catalog which we'd like to have as well on our new site once it's finished (I did notice it doesnt have 2005+ models though... but it's OK since the 2005+ is the same prices as the 2002-2005 A4's.. 2004+ S4's are also the same price as the B6 A4)
STOPTECH: https://www.stoptech.com/user/searchproducts.asp
Thanks!

Depending on the number of people interested, we could see what we can come up with.
Post what you're interested in (Brembo or Stoptech)..

Stoptech 332's
As far as sales, most are around Xmas time. A certain place has a "must call for prices sale" on Stoptech's at Xmas time. PM me for who it is, I dont want to spread there name on here, but there price last year was $1,500 shipped [up] I dont think any GB is going to beat that price!
Im trying to decide between Porsche brakes or the 332 Stoptech's, if I decide to go the Stoptech route Ill wait for the Xmas sale for $1,500. And yes they are doing it again this year, Ive already inquired [:D]

Stoptech 332 for me, and I doubt group buy could come even close to what the one dealer was selling them for last year.

Why must dealers insist on quoting me the suggested retail price right before their "deal" ("It lists for X but I'll give it to you for Y") like they're knocking off wads of dollars for me..... I know what retail is; anyone spending that kind of money for something like brakes probably has done research for fitment and knows what they'd cost! And also knows that isn't what they'd really pay in most instances.
Range of cost from dealers so far is from about $1900 to $2100 shipped for ST 332 CD Zinc fronts. Anyone in dealer-land want to try and beat that a little? Funny thing is, I waited this year for an announcement of sales with money in my hot little hand and no one actually publicly stated a sale anywhere. So I bought Stage III+ instead.
I do know that one well-known forum dealer, who's site claims "Must phone for quote as price is too low to print" is actually one of the higher-priced vendors after the "price so low" phone call.
Lowest price dealer I find by end of week (unless a group buy kicks in) gets my dollars.

Looks like there's mainly interest in Stoptech's. However, we'll still do the Brembo's on a side deal (PM me and I'll quote you directly). We'll announce how this will work tomorrow, or latest Wednesday.

Awesome, Renn-Art! I'm calling tomorrow for my Vogtland group buy order so maybe I'll be a new regular customer and be able to get you some Western PA mail order business from the shows, cruises and track days around here when they ask the old "Where'd you get your brakes?".
You guys have been stepping up to the plate a lot lately. Thanks from one AZ member!

Damn $2873 group buy price for Stopech 355's???From sugg. retail $3265?? Sounds more like a quote for Brembo bbk. Sold off my 1 year old ST 355's a month back and regret it so much i want another during my re-mod of my B7. My "special"price from David @ Eurocode was about $2k then from a $2595listed retail. Have prices jumped that much in a year?? RennArt thats a Brembo quote right??

I hope that is not for ST....I got a better quote else where and that includes Drilled rotors.

Yes, the GB quote pricing is too high. I rather get the 355mm ALCON for that price.

That's what I told Emil...
Emil@RENN-ART
04-08-2007, 07:18 PM
sorry to dissapoint with the prices.... that's the best on stoptechs that we're allowed to do (a couple of them were mistakes.. B7 S7 vs. B7 A4 quotes.. you can check www.stoptech.com yourself and see it's $3295 vs $2595). i guess we'll have to bow down to those 100's lower prices. do they include the expensive shipping of these kits (like we do)?
we'll ask stoptech to see if we can match those numbers that SPP is quoting out.
by the way, dealers are not allowed to do GB's on stoptechs or brembos (they're very strict on this, and you can lose your account if you don't follow this).

Its not a GB its a call in special like I said [;)] Including shipping they are less than you yes!
Emil@RENN-ART
04-09-2007, 07:55 AM
i'm just saying since it's been made very clear that other dealers make it seem like their prices are lower, but then they overcharge on the shipping instead!

So, what's the conclusion? Feel free to PM me (if you haven't already) what the lowest price anyone has found might be. Might not be wise to post it or the dealer's name here as they could get busted and then we all lose.
I want the brakes; I don't want to pay just under $2k for them when I know at Christmas they go down to like $1500 from some places.
