We still don't really know that they do. :tup:

BS Mofos, what a crock

Damn guys

Ya know i came from the world of mustangs (2001 GT). I paid 250$ for an entire Ford Racing cat-back that was all stainless steel.

I was taken totally aback by the fact that exhausts for a similarly priced car (new) is 4-6 times as much as my mustang exhaust. Now is see threads like this....are Z owners gluttons for punishment or something? This is unacceptable, 100%, without a doubt.

I intend on getting the FI exhaust and by the time i do it probably wont have a wait list. If i had to wait more than 3-4 weeks for something like a bunch of bent piping id tell the company to go F itself.

:icon18: :bowrofl: They don't!

lol

:ughdance:

I'm loving my Berk exhaust. Glad I waited.

x1 :icon18:

:shakes head:

Well just read the update and it really doesn't give an exact time frame of when we can expect our exhausts...it basically tells us what I knew two and half weeks ago...This info pretty much means that there are more delays again....

I'm not sure if they are tryin to buy some time, but I really wish they would just be straight forward....I don't know what's so hard about giving an ETA...I'm pretty sure that when their supplier shipped out the exhausts that there should be some sort of tracking system....Based on what I was told on June 30th the exhausts systems should've arrived and should have been shipping out by this week...

Maybe I should write a letter to :santasleigh2: at least he will give me an exact date of when these exhausts will be coming in

If they send out an exact ETA, it'll just fuel the fire if they don't meet it. That's business.

Yup... I work in the manufacturing/wholesale industry and the factory's that we work with always tell us the items are shipped or are on their way when in fact the entire order didn't even finish going through production. So ETA is just an estimate not an actual date unless they provide tracking/container numbers.

Not trying to back up Berk at all here but at our company we deal with similar situations. Bunch of "paid" back orders and the factory gives us the run around. Most cases, we give the run around to the customers that are on back order. However if it takes too long we issue full refunds.

Well it was my turn to call. I spoke with Bryan today to see if there was any chance that they would start to ship by the end of this month.

In a word... NO.

He told me that they are still waiting for the shipment from their supplier and he expects it "any day now". ( sounds familiar)

At least now I won't check my email ten times a day hoping for a tracking number.

I did ask him to post on here when the shipment comes in so that we would at least know that he got it. He said that he would definitely would. Not holding my breath on that one.

So there you have it. More of the same.

Wow. Two weeks ago, Berk posted the following in the Group Buy thread:

"The exhaust assemblies are en-route to me now and a truck will arrive at our shop with all of your pipes very soon. The final weldment takes place in house and if any of you remember from last time we were able to complete 4-5 exhausts per day. The exhausts ship in the order of receipt but expect us to get it all done within 5-7 days."

Are the damn assemblies being delivered by carrier pigeon?? They were supposed to be "en-route" and somehow the pipes still haven't been delivered to Berk? Seriously...this is going beyond just poor customer service. Now it looks like Berk is being caught in outright lies. I sincerely hope all you people that paid for your exhausts actually end up getting something. If not...I hope someone knows a good attorney for a class action lawsuit.

This is ridiculous! I really feel for you guys! :shakes head:

:iagree:

Take your money somewhere else. That's the only way that the service will change. My exhaust is a week late and I'm not happy. The only different is that whenever I call I speak to the same guy and he has been really forthright with me. I can at least appreciate that much.

I wish someone would test the waters and ask for their money back. Let's see if Berk starts to offer all kinds of excuses about not being able to process a refund. If that happens, then all of you will know for a fact what I happen to suspect already... :shakes head:

:iagree::iagree::iagree:

The difference in my situation is that it's only about 10 days late. However, he's sent me 2 sets of pictures of the build, so I know for sure that my exhaust is a reality and will be here soon. The other thing is that he refused to take payment the entire time he was building it. Finally, he took payment on it last week. Which tells me that it was about done or close to it.

I can't wait to get it so I can post some pics on the forum, to get some people to leave Berk alone. Their great product got dimished to garbage because of their laziness and bad customer service. All they had to do was spend some time on here like us and some of the other sponsors. They should have hire someone for that alone.

This really sucks for you guys.

He's sent you pictures of the build??? How on earth is that possible if the parts haven't even arrived from the supplier yet? :ugh2:

I'm not getting a Berk CBE. I ordered the Boombop Shop CBE. Check the link below: very nice tone IMO.

I placed my order in June.

That sounds nice.

Ahh....I see. I actually took a look at this before ordering the Stillen. Looks and sounds great! Just couldn't take the plunge without reading some reviews from people that had actually bought it.

I understand the reservations. I've thought the same thing. I like to give people the benefit of the doubt, so I went with them. From my interaction with the guys there and the pictures that they've sent me, I trust that I'm going to receive a great product. It comes with a lifetime warranty so I'm not worried.

Good luck guys!

Z1804 just curious did you pay the asking price of $1650.00? Or did they give you some kind of a deal?

I think the price on their website is $1492. I ended up paying a little under $1400. Your best bet is to call them and see what their waiting list looks like.

I just might... I really wanted the Berk but after reading this thread I'm not so sure anymore. Hope the waitlist is not too long.

I ordered my exhaust in June and should receive it next week, so it wasn't bad. They're a couple of week late. Not 8 months........They're only producing 5 at a time.
