NM Engineering going out of business? Eh?

I've been calling different vendors for a specific NM Engineering product and 2 vendors mentioned that they no longer have their products cause NM is going out of business. Any truth in that? I know that the part I'm looking for is discontinued and maybe they assumed its because the company is going under? Dumb assumption on the vendors part but just wondering if there's more info out there. By the way I like their products but will probably go another route if support is going.

That is so bogus. I was just at their shop here in Cali less then 2 weeks ago and there was no mention of that. Hell I will call them today because I need to order some parts. THey are owned by Neuspeed which is a great company and is definitely doing very well for itself.

Let us know if you find out anything. I was planning on getting some suspension parts from them too.

Though, as you've seen, MINIMania has their entire NM line on sale. I don't know if that has meaning here but sometimes sales are put on to reduce inventory.

I got some stuff going on right at this very moment so I might now be able to call them till later but, if you guys call their place they normally have better prices then other shops. Also you might be able to sweet talk Jerry into free shipping.

Here is the skinny guys. NM Engineering is alive and well. I spoke with my buddy Jerry at NM a few minutes ago and he informed me of the following: North American Motorsports (NAM), in New York, will be ending its business in Volkswagen, Audi and BMW parts and accessories. Until recently, they were a vendor for NM Engineering.

Here is the link: http://www.namotorsports.net/

Anybody having an issue buying NM's products on their website? I can't locate an "add to cart" or anything like that

What you have to do is call the toll free number (800-423-3623) to place your order. When the recording comes up, choose "1" for sales. That is all it is to it.

FYI: They are three hours behind Eastern Time.

NM is definitely NOT going out of business, if anything they are growing and we sell all of their products, and they are all great quality and fitment.

This "sale" is FAKE, look at the prices. With the discount they are now normal retail price.

NM is not meant to be a retail direct company, that is why you don't find a cart on their site. They want you to buy parts from one of their dealers.

Way is correct, but they will take orders by phone. As I said before, What you have to do is call the toll free number (800-423-3623) to place your order. When the recording comes up, choose "1" for sales. That is all it is to it.

You will find that NM pricing is the retail price. Way sells the same stuff for the same price. Same for Outmotoring.
