Vendetta Motorsports (Austin, Texas)

Well I had a great experience taking my car to Vendetta. I dropped it off around noonish on Saturday and had it back Sunday evening due to a slight snag with the exhaust that got a little banged up during shipping. Jesse hooked me up even though he had to keep the car an extra night and fix the exhaust . He even installed some parts that I forgot to take out of the car for free. Next time I think I'll leave some homework from my classes in the car and see if he does that too Did I mention he also washed my car for me ? I didn't have a chance to wash it after the rainstorm we had on Friday but when I went to pick it up it had been washed and was looking pretty good. All in all I'm overly content with the quality of labor I recieved, the time in which it was completed and the price was right too. I'll definately be referring people to his shop in the future as well as going to him for any installs or what not I might have. Next on the agenda is probably an exhaust system for The Bug....Jesse(Owner/Operator) said he could work something out

VENDETTA MOTORS TOOK MY MONEY AND KEPT THE PRODUCT !!!!!!!!

Vendetta Motors took my money for injectors that were supposed to be:

1. 550cc
2. High impedance
3. Brand new


The reality:

1. They flowed 370cc
2. They were low impedance
3. They were not brand new
(because later turned out that he said he had them installed on his car!)

So I returned them. Mr J Davis signed for them on delivery, it's all logged. As far as

Vendetta Motors were concerned, they were never received. Then when asked about how that

could actually be the case, supposedly someone else must have signed for them yet if that

were true how come he never asked any details to help locate it, such as when it was

delivered, colour of package or anything? After that I did not get any further in

negotiating myself, actually he reverted to disputing they were correct size!!! This has cost me

over $250 including freight, testing and the purchase price of the injectors. I gave him my

word that it WILL cost him money and that I WILL do EVERYTHING possible within the law to

reconcile this situation and get MY MONEY.

Next thing I get an email from a guy with a non-existant email address, who calls himself

'Dylan Conner' and says he was the owner of Vendetta Motors and that we were both defrauded

by an ex-employee, there was also a phone number on the email which is also not valid.

'Dylan Conner' ?? Should be asking 'Rinse' about that one maybe? He seems to know a lot

about Jesse So now I am supposed to feel sorry for 'Dylan' and forget about the whole

thing because I cannot contact him, 'Conner' ? how can the guy exist without an email or

phone that works?

Vendetta Motors phone number is listed under Reigning Performance by the way. Reigning is a

shop that moved around a bit and now it appears to be trading as Vendetta Motors, 'Tim' and

'Mark' worked at Reigning apparently. Any help or more info would be appreciated.

if you have all the paper work and can show were they recieved your merchandise back , i would take them to small claims court. also you CC will be happy to refund your money. sounds like they are trying to setup some scamming with this thread. stay on them. if they are legit they will correct this situation. i hope the moderates follow this and help keep the bad seeds off of this forum.

Jesse, don't take this the wrong way but what's the deal on your exhaust system? I've had several friends that were totally ready to purchase from you already go to other people for their exhausts in the time that it is taking for you guys to develop yours. It seems that this Ti system is quickly becoming know as vaporware.
