Aluminum Pedal Set price?
Is everyone getting the replica set from eBay and stuff? Because I just looked at the authentic ACS price and it's 296$ for the pedal set with manual tranny, 283$ for the pedal set with automatic tranny and 264$ for the aluminum footrest.
I could talk a vendor into doing a group buy with total being around $479 total or try lower if a bunch of folks are interested? But then again, if there is already a cheap spot I don't want to waste everyones time.

Hey Ricky, have you read this thread yet? HUGE difference in price with the replicas.

Ricky... you're the king of group buys, aren't you?
ACS replicas are on eBay for $75. I think you'll have a difficult time convincing anyone to pay $280 bucks for the authentic ACS pedals. I'm starting to think you're getting commission on all these group buys, man...

You gotta be careful with the Group Buy thing. It is really great to try and arrange a good price for things and this is a great community of enthusiasts here who are always interested in such deals, but in my opinion, none of us should be representing ourselves as an "agent" of X5/X3 World, save for Jeff or Drex. If you are arranging a group buy for the members of this forum to a vendor, manufacturer, etc. you are by default putting yourself out there as an agent of the owners and administrators in this community. Best to present your research or connections in the new Group Buy forum, or via PM to Jeff or Drex, and then they can best decide how to proceed. JV

ncx: I did, but I've never felt good buying replica stuff. Don't get me wrong, I know there's a massive profit margin but hey, when a SL500 costs 16,000$ to make and you pay 89,900$ at the dealer for it...
![]() Kaefer: I promise, no comission. I just love organizing this kinda stuff. Same reason why I'm president of a lot of clubs at school. JVZ104: Did I say I was an agent representing X5World? I never meant to if I did. I just love doing all this. It gives me a sense of satisfaction of knowing folks have gotten something they've wanted without paying a stupidly large sum. I used to work at Euroteck Motorsports and when I got asked to be a moderator, I chose to drop Euroteck because I knew it'd be a conflict of interest. I never got any money out of Euroteck because I did it for the fun. I know that might sound weird, but folks have fun doing various things. Some like golf, some like boating, I love modding cars

Just 20 min ago I completed the install of ACS pedals. Looks great.
I would not go for the orginal stuff(ofcourse after enough research). 9 out of 10 times both could be be from the same supplier/manufacturer. |
