SPS

Hey quick question gang...is SPS still around? I stopped by their shop a few weeks ago and it was dark and no one seems to answer the phones there anymore. To me it doesnt sound good and I seem to have lost John's cell phone number to bug him.

BTW...I'm back if anyone remembers me

Time to make the old SL2 nice again...1 year i Houston killed the car, 2 minor accidents, tranny going bad, engine starting to rattle...argh. Just got a 98SL2m parts car so might have some parts coming up for sale.

I think they've gone away like every other Saturn aftermarket dealer. I tried calling a few times last week and kept getting a voicemail.

I guess it's kind of hard to make it when you specialize in just Saturns and the majority of people that own them are cheap.

I have no idea. I JUST bought a header gasket from them literally 5 minutes ago online. Got an email and everything, so lets see if they come through with the goods.

Seriously? Let us know if they actually process it.

I know SPS isn't that busy where they couldn;t answer calls and e-mails.

Well I got a confirmation email this morning as well as one from UPS stating they recieved the info and should be shipped later today. Sounds like they are still in business to me and same fast shipping that I've always liked about them.

Could be - there's a lot more cost in keeping up brick & mortar than a website. Heck, a lot of companies that sell online don't even ever touch the product they sell - they're just order-takers.
