 I'm not sure if this has been posted before since I'm new to the site. I've recently done alot of work to my 914, buying various different parts. I was recommended to the company AUTO ATLANTA. Seeing that they had a large list of parts in their catalog I decided to just go ahead and order everything. Working with them has been the biggest mistake of my life and has made me decide that if this is how porsche companies are, this will be my first and last 914. I've gotton the wrong parts, broken parts, double charged for parts, not sent parts, parts back ordered, and anything you can think of. They'll send things one at a time and charge shipping each time. I had to call and straighten my order out several times, I even spoke with the owner who seemed to know less then the employees. If you've bought from them and liked the service then power to you. But if your looking for parts stay far clear from them. I bought parts to convert to a 914-6, and all they did was buy the parts from a place in AZ, then charge me shipping costs from GA and jacking up the price. I cant remember the name of the place in AZ, peterson something maybe. Anyway this is my warning, cant say I didnt tell you. |
