Default Any views on c performance

Hi,

i have owned a Nissan 350z for the past 2 years. I have been swayed towards a subaru by a friend who owns one and also the distinctive sound. I have just sold my 350z so i am now actively looking at getting my first subaru. I have a budget of around 10k.

I have contacted a company called c performance who seem to stock alot of them. When i contacted them last week, i was told i will get a call back but unfortunately i am still waiting . Not the best start i suppose so will try them again.

In the meantime i thought what better place to ask the question than a subaru forum. i could not find any information about this company in terms of reviews. Has anyone had any dealings with them, good or bad, any information would be helpful. Thanks

i was looking at a wrx which just had an engine rebuild, and was told to stay well clear as they had used a reconditioned crank, so i would say look somewhere else

The guy is a joker never calls back, impossible to a arrange a viewing and condescending. He must come on forum from time to time as he beat me to a car that was for sale on here lol

I really do not understand how car dealers like these are allowed to continue trading.

Its such a shame as it gives other dealers a bad name.

You will never be successful long term by treating customers poorly.

over a whopping 100,000 miles once went into thin air from this seller . Saw the mileage on a car a few weeks earlier at 203,000 (kms). Ended up on the sellers website with 60k on the clock being sold as a "low mileage" car.
