Not a good look...Customer is looking for his $30,000.00 deposit.
It is with regret I write this mail, but in January 2013 I visited Saleen in California and met Steve for the first time in Person. At that time I owned two Saleen and loved the cars and wanted to meet him and see the new facilities as he was just getting back with the Saleen name. Steve was very generous and showed me the factory and told me lot of things about the new 351 Saleen that was in the pipes.
To make a long story short I decided to put in an order for the new 351 Saleen in February 2013 and paid a down payment of $30.000, they would use the car as a promotion car and I would get in delivered in January 2015, and they would keep the car for me until then.
Time passed and I met Steve two times and we never talked about the car and I never heard anything about the progress of the car. Then in September 2014 I asked if they could put the $30.000 I had paid towards the 2015 Saleen and that was no problem.
Then I thought this would be too much for me as I had two Saleens already so I asked for a refund of the $30.000.
Here is where the lies and trouble started. I have been in contact, well tried to be in contact with Derick Hall at Saleen and he started by telling me that they had already ordered the 2015 car so it would be had to refund me.
I asked how that would be possible as I had not given any information on the option or color of the car. Since then Derick has promised to look into the matter many times and talk to Steve about it, but nothing has happened.
So Saleen has screwed me up, and I feel that hard as I thought I was a good customer and I loved everything about Saleen. They sold me two cars and took $30.000 of me that looks like they have no intention to return to me. It looks like they are broke but still promotes new cars, but they don´t take care of there customers.
So beware of sending any money to Saleen, as if you change your mind they will not pay you back.
