Why? They've sold a ton of them and built a strong enough following that people talk about it like it's a standalone car (not a conversion).

So are you saying AE is unable to improve on quality? I don't think it would be very hard. I put (2) DEX210 and a 22 together this year and those are pretty good. I've raced AE for over 20 years. I work for a manufacturer and quality and service are our number one priority. With AE parts availability price will never be an issue. Just saying, end all quality questions by putting great quality out even if it raised the price by $30 or more

It is a good price point and with towers discount codes, should be pretty cheap compared to most

Remember though that's a $300 price tag on a team kit, not a Factory Team kit.

What's usually the difference between a team and fteam kit? More blue crap?

That's a price that Stormer put on their site...

Since the car isn't available, I wouldn't be surprised if that IS NOT the final street price.

They probably wanted to get it into there system and price is a mandatory field.

Sounds pretty close though...
