Skunk2 Alpha email

I got this email earlier today,


Quote:
Attention S2 sales and marketing department:
As you all know, later this month we’ll be releasing our all-new product line—Alpha. Everyone’s done a great job of keeping this new project under wraps despite the teasers that have been released. Next week we’ll be unveiling the first of the Alpha line: our first-ever die-cast aluminum throttle body for B-series engines followed by our ’06-’11 Civic Si header. Both of these new products are unique for us in that they’ll allow us to more readily offer our same race-proven technology and performance at extremely competitive prices thanks to new manufacturing techniques. Our cast throttle body is the only one to feature countersunk bolt provisions, a fully machined throttle bore, and an idle adjustment screw. And our header follows the same design characteristics as our dyno-proven MegaPower version so we already know how well it’ll perform. We’ll also want to let consumers know that despite this being a new line, Alpha products will benefit from the same fit and finish as every other Skunk2 product as well as our industry-leading customer service support and warranty program that our competitors simply don’t offer.
We’ll be officially releasing Alpha in the coming weeks, but in the meantime please keep all of this under wraps.

Dave
Followed by this one tonight,

The earlier email, “Attention S2 sales and marketing department: New Alpha line,” was sent to you in error. It was intended only for Skunk2 employees and advisors and is highly confidential. Please delete and ignore immediately.

Thank you for choosing Skunk2.
Skunk2 staff
Anyone else get the same ? Someone either made a BIG mistake or it is a PR stunt.

Looks like the quality of Skunk2 management is comparable with the quality of their products.
