I called proto motoring today and they completely made fun of my Japanese accent. they are complete jackasses and I hope they go OUT OF BUISNESS soon! They totaly neglected me and gave me crappy service and I encourage you to NEVER go there because they are stuck up and think there the shit.

*brndck* · 07-13-2009, 08:15 PM

i think the word you're looking for is "racist"

dino6192 · 07-13-2009, 08:18 PM

I thought everyone knew about this already. sorry to hear about your experience with PROTO MOTORING.

I too had a bad experience with them and I know of at least 10 other customers that had horrible work done to thier cars and had to pay even more money to get it fixed.

I purchased my car there a couple yrs ago and got totally ripped off. they promised clean looking work like a car that was sitting out front and I got shit.

they have had countless threads on here and other forums about thier quality of work.

DONT GO TO PROTO IN RIVERSIDE, CA!!

I would also be contacting a lawyer about racial discrimination in your situation.

udon! · 07-13-2009, 08:18 PM

Sorry english not too good lol

S14Cuhh · 07-13-2009, 08:23 PM

you should've done a quick search on proto motorssports on zilvia before you went there. i'm glad I did. i found like 30 threads where people were saying how bad they were.

i doubt they'll care if it's a known fact that they don't care.

SAKURA · 07-13-2009, 09:48 PM

charlie321 · 07-13-2009, 09:54 PM

protomotoring and expomotoring are the same companies, don't go to either of them. they are way overpriced and are very very shady.

shady business dealing with shady business...pretty much...they find there fan boy, and well...we've all seen the end results on that.

*kognition* · 07-14-2009, 11:57 AM

Those are all fanboi rides anyway. That's why they have that car carrier, they buy up all the shiite out there, slap a coat of paint and some federals on and put that garbage on e bay

protopwr · 07-14-2009, 05:20 PM

Yo check this out, this is James from PROTO and to let everybody know we're all minorities here at the shop. This idiot called my shop about 20 times pretending like he was lost and everytime he called he used a different accent, asking if we have skylines because only real shops have skylines and this idiot just had nothing to do but be a bugaboo. I don't have time to deal with petty bullshit like this but when you call us here at my shop racist on some forums especially, im gonna call you out to say it in our faces. Ive been in business for 10 years this December and I know I cant make everyone happy but I do run a legit operation in this illlegitimate industry dealing with kids that dont understand what a business is and how its run and how a business survives, by making a profit. Tell you what buddy come down to our time attack event every Tuesday night that we host for real drivers and true enthusiasts and you can see what kind of people we really are and the stuff we do that no other shop does. If not I will give someone 500 buck to tell me where this idiot lives. Thanks

evmal613 · 07-13-2009, 09:58 PM

seriously!!! I bought my 91 coupe from them for an already overpriced 2600, and then wen i got home found out i owed another 500 bucks for registration they never told me about! A holes, dont ever go there, ever....I didnt know anything about proto until after i read shit about them. ugh
