Car Toys Does Compare. They have more Master Certified Installers than any other company...Intec has even paid Car Toys installers to do some car alarms there, one imperticular named Mar (drives a bad *** white g35). Also I would rather have a company that has more stores do my alarm if their are any issues i can go to any local car toys and get it fixed whereas if i had intec do it id have to go there. Each installer at Car Toys also has to get re-certified every 4 years to keep their job...show me where any tech at Intec is mecp certified. I bet your install from Lawerence is soooo great on a civic...one of the easiest cars to do lol. I dont doubt Intecs work, i remember a few years back where everyone hated intec, most of those forum members have since left and parted with their g35 but intec was never the **** til you got work done there, and now work there? If youve had a bad experience with Car Toys it was probably the sales people and not the installers, the sales people are paid **** and have quotas and will raise prices (comissions a bitch) but if you just worked with an installer from the gate im sure theres no issues.

 

Made my day lol.

Interesting to see how when ever someone feels hurt the first thing
that comes to their mind is to sue someone.

 

Of course Car Toys has a lot of "master certified installers." They make the certificates. Lawrence from Intec worked there for several years, WAS a master certified installer, and was even awarded custom installer of the year. I've seen 4 alarms that they installed, on my car, my GF's car, and two friends cars and it was all get it done as fast as possible work. All of them could have been disabled within a minute by a knowledgeable thief. I've personally watched Lawrence install 5 alarms--my civic, a honda fit, 350z, 86 corolla worth $40,000, Titan, and the attention to detail is unsurpassed.
He is the only one at Intec that does Alarm installs; we're not going to let an inexperienced tech work on someone's car, regardless what the job is.

If you're a local guy why does it matter that there's a bunch of locations to go to?? You only need one.

I do not "work" at Intec, I'm co owner. I will agree that there were some unfortunate events in the past that caused some drama around the shop, and we are working hard each and every day to better the car community as a whole and ensure that that does not happen again. No one who was working here at that time currently works here, and the current staff is all very knowledgeable and passionate about cars.

In the last year that I've been a part of Intec I've seen hundreds of happy customers, including a bunch of guys on the forum, and how many dissatisfied ones???

And how would I be able to vouch for a shop that I'd never been to?? I knew exactly what I wanted when I bought my G35 and had an Osiris tune by Lawrence 2 months after, so yes I had a positive experience and I've been repping Intec the whole time.

 

I watched an interview with her, and it made me want to throw a rock at my keyboard

 

good morning bitches!

 

Hey seymore you have a ae86?

 

nope, but the silkroad corolla is back at the shop after a major rebuild, its gonna drop a lot of jaws when its finished

nobody ATM, Lawrence once he retunes it lol

 

it looks like a pro am? or just a car

Kudos to Lawerence for his award, I am not bashing his ability to do an alarm install or any install for that matter, what I am saying is that Car Toys does have great installers that dont do hack work, keeping in mind that there are always some bad seeds in each company, just like yours a few years ago-apparently all gone. Talk to anyone at Car Toys and ask if theyve worked with Phil Tweet or Brian Baba and youll never ever see an issue with any install ever performed by these two individuals.
The reason i mentioned more locations is simply put you have 1 location, who knows when its going to die, just like worldone performance, xtreme autosalon, fastlane, etc. I know your business is booming but in this economy you never know, especially when some people were recommended to go to intec to do a motor swap and your reps either didnt care since it was a basic cheap job or quoted high for a stock rebuild

 

Alright I think your opinions have been aired at this point yea? Any business that is still in business these days must be doing something right, with the current economic climate and the growing demand for customer and professional service any "hacks" are quickly being weeded out no? I have had installs done with both locations and have had results that I expected from each, Which is to say, good. I am all about the love as you know by now, so I propose we share some hot cocoa and a hug and acknowledge that things change, and not every assembly line shop is crap. Except circuit city...those guys sucked hah jk...or am I? No I am....not....yes
