It said in this thread: In order to differentiate the INFI Street Scrappers from other future runs of this model that might be made out of a different steel, we have added some pretty cool custom features. These include the Scrap Yard Logo with the word "INFI" under it as well as a satin finished spine. . . . ALL INFI Street Scrappers will have these features without exception. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> When we make the Street Scrapper again out of a different steel, they will be sterile and fully coated.

I like the (modified) logo a lot but I must admit to being luke-warm about the polished spine- either polish the whole thing or leave it black.. It just looks a bit mish-mash to me.. (Sorry!) I can't wait till mine arrives though! JYD #3 Poor, but still dreaming of a sage and black SOD CG...

You're probably right. It will be a true bargain. I felt like I was stealing the INFI version at $140. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> On the polished spine.
