Exclamation Breaking Xmod News from The Shack!!!

Well if you check the current radioshack page on xmods you'll notice something. 5 items? Nissan GTR, Chevy Corvette Z06, and '65 Ford Mustang are GONE. Has anyone else noticed this? The Audi R8 seems to be the only XMODS Evolution(?) left(luckily - check sig), because the New Mustang and 370Z plus the Micros are XMODS Custom RC(?), and the Challenger is not up yet. Luckily, I got my GTR a few months back and my 370Z later. So maybe anyone who likes the aforementioned 3 "Evos" (Street) should trot on overto THe Shack before The END. Anyone know any more about this?
Is this possibly the end of these 3 XMODs?

(The site says Evolution for the 3 + the R8, but aren't they ALL called Street now?)

Sorry if ya'll already knew or wrote about this earlier

The concept is pretty simple to me...it happens with almost everything.

It's also why we don't have a 1999 Nissan Skyline Xmod any more, or why the G35 disappeared by the time the S281E came along...it's called discontinued, and yes, it means that the three will be added to the same list that the '99 Skyline is on.

No hard feelings but this isn't such a big deal if you ask me. It means that we'll most likely see the remaining few on clearance while release 2 continues to populate the stores.

All the new gen xmods have been $25 at my local store since the day they came out.
But, I still haven't bought any.
The last xmod I bought in a store was the Scion tC when it first came out.

They're still floating around stores. I might pick up a GT-R myself if they dip below $25 by Christmas.

I hope they do lower the prices. I was a little surprised not to see them in the black friday sales papers.

Oh, well if they didn't put them in the previous year ads, then I guess there's still hope we'll see the discounted prices.

@bigmike17
don't do it! Wait until Thursday because the Black Friday sale starts then. You can maybe save $5 because EVERYTHING is 50% off!!!
