Local PHX Meet?

apexwrx · 07-24-2002, 09:50 PM

I have heard rumors on a meet Aug. 3 at Pitre Subaru. Can anyone confirm?

**vividracing** · 07-25-2002, 11:25 AM

There is a meet there, but why go. They dont give a shit about you, they wont warranty anything on your car. Why do I say this, I have taken it up there and Robert Carter the GM of service and the Subaru rep are more interested in getting promoted then helping you out with problems. You all know about the clutch whining noise, well it is apparent in my car, but they say my intake is at fault. So I said, blow me....[p]They want to start selling performance OEM parts only, no aftermarket, so ideally they just want you to buy stuff and then still not help you. I say forget them!

sounds like a good time to advertise for Vivid Racing, don't you think?

I had a similar experience with Pitre. My car came with the factory (BS) alarm and they said if I removed it or put in a different one, my whole electric system warranty would be voided. they also said no aftermarket parts or the warranty's toast. That sucks my ass.

Let the GC8 guys go to the meet. WRX owners are different...So lets have a WRX meet.

apexwrx · 07-26-2002, 11:51 AM

Yeah I think it is a general rule that dealerships have to be retarded about anything aftermarket. I was just curious to see if anyone was going since we locals can't seem to get a meet of our own going.

ya, Vivid how about sheduling one out like at least a month so we have enough time to circlulate the date and time to everyone. I'll even make some flyers and give them to everyone I see driving a WRX

excellent idea[p] :upsidown:

Sounds good to me... and I'm with Dan... I went in for the 3000 mile oil change and they told me my warranty on my powertrain was not valid because I had a BOV and a KN filter... and the exhaust system was also because I had an new rear muffler... BS all the way... I told them to change the oil and I'll deal with the problem later...

**vividracing** · 07-30-2002, 11:08 AM

We can plan on a meet after this coming weekend. may around the end of August is better. Suggestions. Please solicit others.

khart · 07-30-2002, 02:58 PM

I think we should go for like the last Saturday in Aug. which I believe just happens to be the 31st. Vivid, let me know as soon as possible and I will make some flyers and spread them around my side of town.

azscooby · 07-30-2002, 11:12 PM

Besides the meet at the dealer on the 3rd, there will an night auto-x on the 10th at Firebird. There is usually a good showing of WRX and RS guys there, plus a lot of other nice cars.[p]Just in case anyone didn't know that was coming up.[p]Regards,[p]Aaron

**vividracing** · 07-31-2002, 11:44 AM

We can work at that meet on the 31st. To make it official, I need 10-15 for sure people, so start a sign up thread here and solicit people in....
