Arrow Mugen Hardtop Price Increased!

Just to let you all know I just checked http://www.kingmotorsports.com and notice that the price now is $5500 for the CF Mugen Hardtop. And it was $5000 the last time I checked in.

I dont understand the reason! I hope they will not be surprised if some S2000 owners will go for the Seibon CF Hardtop.

if the dollar becomes stronger, will the prices drop? seriously doubt it. Higher demand justifies the price increase for Mugen/KMS. And the demand will probably still be there despite the pricing.

I'd order it from some place else if I were considering it. King will never get any of my money.

Yea dollar to yen is really weak. But dang $500 is a huge difference.
There's some places by me that offer 10-15% off of King's prices. Like for the Mugen exhaust its $1350 the last time i checked.
