hp tuner gp
No need to have a GP when they have enough fools like me paying full price for it already. In a few years when these things will be 1/2 the price they are now, we'll all be laughing at ourselves in disbelief. 
There was a sorta-GP deal when they first rolled out
the EIO upgrade, if I recall. But in general they don't
seem to be that eager to encourage people by price.
Because it's not like there's anything close, cheaper,
yet.
If it's half price in two years, I'll have had two years
of tuning for a hundred bucks annual "rent". Price
compression is characteristic of consumer electronics
and competitive markets. The alternative would be,
umm, kinda like a couple year back when all there
was, was Edit, the price was high, the license was
greedy, and the pace of improvement was roughly
squat. Remember those "good old days"? Yeah, huh.
Sure, I'd gladly pay less. But I wasn't gonna wait two
years to tune my car, for that. When I want to laugh
at myself I think about my Predator and how, 3 years
ago, I thought it was a good deal and an adequate
tool. Now that's funny.

ok, heres what you do..
get a buddy..... say your buddy has a 99... you have a 00.
you two split the cost.. 250 bucks each... and order it for 99s and 00s.
there ya go... you dont need the cable on a constant basis, so its pretty easy to share. you and your buddy just saved $$
and if you get good at it... you could help other people with the same year cars as what you have... and possibly get some of your money back out of it.... O2 sims cost $80 new... $50 used..... so you could help someone, and get $40 (or more) to get your investment back.... removing rear O2s is easy.. you get $$, and they get a deal....

I've had that happen lots of times lol...Good luck with HPTuners Mecham....
A GP would be nice but, I am trading the LS1 Edit Cable in and makes it a little cheaper. Hell, I needed a scanner and that would be ~$500 for EFILive Pro. In the long run, HPTuners is a great deal and the current price considering what individual programs cost.
naa, they never go "on sale".... the price is pretty constant now... and its the lowest cost option out there.
they're constantly working on and updating it... so its not like LS1edit where they wrote it, and now they're just out for your cash....

It's a great bang for the buck even without the trade-in program. With the trade-in program is a killer deal. They did a short gp on www.corvetteforum.com but it was also probably done to offset the much hire cost of advertising there and to get the word out. I'm sure they did not make any money on the gp.
