Reflections on GTM over the years

bullitt5897

Personally I would have offered to send him another kit if the GB fell through maybe a stage 2 tt kit or something as an upgraded system free of charge. But that's just me... I did that for a few customers with UAM... I would rather a customer run my product and be happy they got a deal and a product...

Lol. Hey "OG", did u read what Mike from said company had to say? That answers all the questions you asked. We didn't have to go to said company or deep research anything (the hell would we HAVE to do that anyway? Any good business wouldn't require that bullchit) because one of his top ex-employees stated what we ALL knew. Did you work there, or does he have so much of ur money tied up in your project you're just trying to sugar coat your side of the story. Just wondering are you the owner of the mythical 1k hp Z? If so then it would make TOTAL sense of what you're trying to do here.
What you call us doing with "pitchforks" is just the community calling it as we see it. A top ex employee already stated how said company runs and we have more than enough real life member experience of how they were screwed. Pitchfork my @ss. There's nothing more to add other than its truly sad what your choice of words were about said company, especially coming from a "OG"

Ok first of all I had and still do the ability to pull my car at any time. I however, choose to allow them to finish the car.

Sugar coating lol don't make me laugh...

I read Mike's responses and even spent time with him last Saturday. So yeah I know what and why he said it. He confirms the bad decision dealings that Sam had made... I confirmed that as well. I chose not to go into details cause it had already been posted. No one and I repeat myself no one is downplaying or mitigating that bad business decisions were made and that customers paid the brunt force of the mistakes made. This is the true tragedy of what has happened. I just choose not to go witch hunting as the moderators have already stopped the bleeding in our community. Sam will now have to work his way into the trust fold here.

Yeah I am one of the original OG's and no I am not sugar coating anything. What else can be said about the issue but to regurgitate what others already have?

I simply came in here to give an update and to inform those with projects and money owed that GTM was working to rectify the issues. But hey if you want to consider that defending a company then hell I couldn't convince you that snow is white...

With that said I am done. I gave my update... GTM is working to make things right which says a good bit considering the amount of work and owed money ahead of them. Ill is a prime example of them trying to get things finished and corrected but hey I'm just cheerleading over here... Sarcasm...

Well hopefully Sam never makes his way back into this community or any other one for that matter. Considering the complaints here and various other forums, he doesn't deserve the business.

Working to make things right says NOTHING until things are actually right. I'm sure they're working on making their turbo kits right too, you know? Just my .02

Addicts are always just about to get over their addiction. Proof is in the pudding.

Call me names all you want... I do not give a flying ****... The sad thing is the judgement you place will never go away even if things were fixed... Once a hater always a hater. Most of the people hurt by the GB haven't even posted up... Several had gotten refunds already and they haven't posted up... Cars have been finished and others pulled from the shop yet not all of them have posted up...

So yes call me a denier... I know more about what's going on then you. I have seen proof of what they are trying to do in person... So grab your hater cap and continue on hating cause all you are doing is making it worse for the victims... Ill posted up his problem a few weeks ago and guess what he now is on schedule to receive a finished car but hey that's not proof that GTM is trying to rectify the situation nope not at all... It is up to the buyers to choose to post and most don't...

<<<< Denier of Ignorance!

You don't give a flying ****, but I can read the anger in your post.

You are the same as every other poster who still had work going on there telling the community they have it all wrong about GTM. I wish you luck that you are the minority that receive a functioning complete vehicle that met your original goals.

Thank you bullitt for some additional perspective. You're being crucified unnecessarily by people who seem to think that GTM has filed for bankruptcy, shut down the shop, and disappeared. Obviously, GTM is still working on customer's cars. Good luck getting your build finished up.

To those with flaming pitchforks already in hand, I do not blame you for wanting to crucify GTM. But FFS, there's no reason to attack a fellow forum member who is several years deep into his GTM build. I suspect if bullitt was looking to start his build in the last 6 months, his posts would be much different. I don't quite see how you guys think he was defending GTM - he was just stating his observations of the shop in its current state. I don't think anyone is reading through pages of this thread, and then getting to bullitt's post and thinking to themselves, wow GTM sounds like a great choice for my build

Although, the fact they are currently working on customer cars doesn't mean they haven't began the bankruptcy process.

JARblue,

Thank you for the response. It is nice to see that I am not the only Sane person in here...

Chuck,

They have not started any bankruptcy process... Are they tight yes... Does it look like they will fold? No...

Yeah, there's some funky ownership issues going on, but someone related to this debacle began filing bankruptcy. Bullitt, take anything Sam says about a filing with a grain of salt. He's not above looking someone right in the eyes and lying to them.

The document posted in this thread was a bankruptcy for filing of a different named company. Not sure if GTM was a dba or the bankruptcy filing was for a subsidiary or completely separate company. You're absolutely right, but I think we just don't have enough information to make an assumption on whether the GTM shop is going to remain open or shut down due to bankruptcy.
