Victory Motors has a terrible reputation. No way I would buy from them.

I'm brand new to this site (my first post) but check out some of the other Porsche sites (Rennlist.com) do a search for Victory Motorcars and there seems to be a lot of negative about them.

Thank You !!!

I would like to thank everyone who replied. I did a Carfax on the car I was interested in and saw where it had a recent title issued in Tenn. If I am not mistaken that is one of the states where salvage titles etc. can be easily hidden. Also, every reply and additional person I have spoken to has been negative about Victory Motors, Houston. Obviously I will not be making a purchase from them. Thank you again everyone.

E-bay positives !!!

In doing some research on Victory Motors, Houston I read [I can not confirm personally] that the owner of Victory was caught posting replies pretending to be someone else, in other words using other identities. Additionally, as part of any settlement of a dispute on E-Bay, Victory Motors requires the victim retract the negative posting on E-Bay. This is what I have read elsewhere and I have no way of confirming these events.

It's too bad they have a negative reputation. They always seem to have a pretty big inventory of some nice (looking at least) P-cars on their website.

It's amazing how well some cars can photograph.

Thats unfortunate. I've seen many of their cars on ebay as I have been looking at Speedsters. They do seem to have some beautiful cars, but I don't buy without putting my hands on the car first and I don't have the time to fly out to Houston just to kick the tires on a toy.

They had a nice looking '96 white/black 993 a while back. Sick car, but too much money. As well as the fact that everyone has nothing but terrible things to say about them.

I'm in Houston every 4 months or so visiting friends, but I've yet to stop in there. Maybe on my next trip I'll swing through there.
