I hope hell freezes over before anyone here helps you.

If anyone wants to know why:

Some good reading about this member, and how he feels about minorities.

He doesn't deserve to have help...or let's send him to the worst shop in the city...

I was just about to call out this racist! I am mexican and I OWN a SUBARU . What a PRICK! Instead of sending him to the worst shop, send him to one where a Big mexican and a Big black guy work and give them a print out of that page!

Wow....ever hear the phrase "Don't judge a book by it's cover"? Just because someone may "appear" to have money does not mean that they do and just because a person CAN afford something, don't ever underestimate greed and jealousy.

It sucks about your car. The closest Subaru specific junk yard is up in Sacramento. Otherwise, just like anything else it is either going to be through the dealership or through someone selling off parts in the forums.

oh wait. I was talking about Roo. lol

Open a phone book and call your closest dealer - they can source you the parts directly.

OMG that is so funny!!

You know what's most ironic? If he were to call my boss to complain, I've already shown my boss his rantings and ravings, and I'm pretty sure that he won't be getting the parts locally...

Especially when he finds out that my boss a member of one of the races he is so biased against!!

Racist bastard. I know you jerks are everywhere but SF is one of the most diverse cities on the planet. Sad, very sad. I'm sure your car will get fixed - I hope you get bent over and take it in the @ss while your at it.

Thanks for the heads up Roo.

I don't think I've even heard that 'term' for a black person in my entire life

Don't be coming by our shop, por favor.

BUT.... dude, this is why you have car insurance. This is a COMPREHENSIVE claim. You should have a lower comprehensive deductible vs. your collision deductible and you're typically allowed to have a couple of these types of claims a year without it affecting your rates at all. Call your freakin' insurance company!



....and there, their, and they're are DIFFERENT WORDS ....

WOW!!! How old are you and where the hell did you go to school? Even my immigrant grandma from China has better grammar than you. I feel your pain and understand what you're going through, but being racist like that isn't going to help you any.

Karma will change once you change your outlook on people. Good luck with the car.

I will call myself dumb for the terms I used and apologize to the Hispanic's. But I do have proof now of what race did this horrible thing. I also won't apologize to roo, who I will be seeing in a couple of days. I'm not a racist or prejudice, I was just caught up in the moment. I'm sure everyone has his or her day.

I took the liberty of correcting your capitalization, punctuation and misuse of the spelling for common words.

I'm not "ill talk"...nor am I ALL talk.

If I was concerned that you would take the time to show up at my dealership, I would sincerely thank you for such forewarning. I'm certain that you'll find some other parts department which has the proper (all white, maybe?) staffing that will suit your racial preferences better.

I hear Ron Price would better suit your needs/preferences, and is closer to your location.

"This horrible thing"??

If you were talking about Michael Vick, and his treatment of dogs (sentient beings), or you were talking about Bobby Cutts, who ALLEGEDLY murdered a woman and her unborn child, or about the rash of murders occurring in Oakland city streets...well, THOSE are "horrible". Someone breaking into your car? That's bad, but definitely doesn't rise to "horrible" status, unless they assaulted you while carjacking you.

You won't apologize to me? I'm so hurt... . I'm not asking for an apology, nor would I expect someone who is so ignorant to be able to supply an honest and sincere apology. I would settle for tolerance, and be happy with your understanding that because one person commits this crime, that an entire race of people isn't at fault.

You, for some reason, mistakenly believe that by pursuing this issue, coming over to my dealership parts department, will FORCE me into retreating from my beliefs? I'm sorry, you're sadly mistaken.

My job as a professional is to assist my customers in obtaining the parts that they need in order to complete maintenance, restoration, or repair of their vehicle. I will order the parts for you AFTER you pre-pay them, as policy dictates. I will even call you when they come in, as is my job. Will I allow my personal feelings to come into play? No. Sorry, you'll be sadly disappointed. I deal with people almost every day who are racially biased, who are intolerant, who are completely ignorant to anyone else but themselves. Seeing you will only be another customer to deal with, and that'll make me happy.

However, I will be enjoying a good feeling about this. By calling you out for being the racist you have chosen to portray, our dealership gets your business. We have the opportunity to profit from your hatred and anger. I'm perfectly happy to take your money and sell you the parts that you need.

If I were you, I'd consider NOT rewarding me with your business...but if that's what you want to do, so be it.



I'll look forward to seeing you on Monday.

In order to ensure that you purchase the right parts, please make sure to have the last eight digits of your VIN number handy. That way we can order the parts that your car was built with, to ensure the best fit and repair for your beloved Subaru vehicle.
