Glad to see itthe camaro is still kicking! I might finally post my own Batmobile. Been lurking these forums for years.
I miss how lively they used to be, though I still love how after almost 2 years you can reply to my comment  |
Unfortunately, paid in full amount of $3,920 USC to Shirokai on 09/17/2021 so at this point there’s little I could do since the purchase is too old to file a claim with my creditor in order to get refunded that amount unless I fully sued the company through small claims court which IMHO isn’t worth the lengthy toll of time, money, and mostly stress/headaches the process would take to go through. At this point, it’s either money lost or Shirokai will come through on his word and I’ll receive the kit some day before I die (hopefully).
The last update we got from the owner in the chat was on November 18 saying “Flying back tomorrow, just finished paperworks and got tickets yesterday. Plan to be at the production on Friday or Monday, crossing my fingers to see raw Camaro parts waiting for finish cutting and cleaning. M2 is still in my personnel to do list, but realistically its very hard to invest another $35K into it having 2 kits sold for all the time, and one of them ended up asking a refund(we agreed on replacing his kit with other products to cover the refund amount) And it is very hard for me to say as I know how long and how hard you are waiting for it and how supportive you’ve been through everything.”
Needless to say the following Friday/Monday has come and gone without him providing any new information. He had several builds with kits featured in SEMA hoping that would drive some online sales so he would have funds for production and shipping of outstanding orders. Communication is very sparse and we constantly beg for weeks on end to get updates.
Been waiting 1,536 days since I placed the order … but who’s counting…
