Also a vicitim of these guys. Their mechanic hasn't the first clue what he is doing. He ran flammable fluid lines through the headers, Lowered a 1968 Camaro with lowering blocks and cutting springs. Heck the car he sold me in "good running condition" was not only a death trap, but nothing on it worked correctly.
Shot transmission, shot engine, the engine in it very well may have been stolen from 1986 Camaro which had an insurance claim on it. These people are complete crooks and they wire money out of the country as they get it. They thought I'd pay with a cashier's check, and not be able to trace the money.
Tracing transactions and internet connections is my day job. He's finally ripped off the wrong person. Taking him to court next month for $200,000. Put an injunction against his account for foreign transfers. Billing him my max billable per hour for the time I've spent trying to rectify this situation.

Sorry to hear about your run in with them. I am too a victim. Just this past November I bought a 2004 wrx sti. When I first drove the car it ran perfectly fine and "seemed" like it had no problems. Upon purchasing the car I asked alberto and jorge if the car had been in any accidents( I asked them several times) they told me that this car had never been in any accidents and is "mechanically" in good condition.
What a joke that was.After purchasing the car the speakers did not have an amp for them( I had no radio for 2 weeks) ,4 days after purchase the radiator had a crack in it( I had to pay $125 and installed it myself). 2 weeks later the battery fried( was $120).1 month later A piston ring went and car eats oil like a hungry hippo.( The car has always eaten oil since purchase they gave me the car with NO OIL IN IT) so at first I thought maybe it was just not refilled.
2 weeks later the oil was dry and I knew that it was an internal issue. Pretty much I put $5000 down on this car that was 12.9k and I already put about little over $200 for the battery and the radiator. BUT the motor now needs a rebuild kit and the kit and labor is $4,000. I am a college student and cant afford to get ripped off! So I feel your pain.
