RE: Hoppen wants to know

["Duff, Ian" <iduff@charter.com>]

No bashing here, I haven't done my due diligence, nor tried to solve
this myself, but here's my story. I have called them twice, (first time
got Mrs. Hoppen at home, archive number is home, not shop, correct
number is 941.924.6380) spoke to Mike Hoppen both times, looking for
info, availability, prices, etc. on suspension and brake upgrades for my
'90 CQ. Both times Mike told me he'd be in touch with his sources in
Germany within the week and get back to me. I'm still waiting. In
fairness, I have not faxed him a list of the improvements I am
contemplating, nor my car's VIN and build date, so all he has to work
from is our phone conversations, but shouldn't that be enough? Kind of
made me think they don't want my business.
