I was driving down Beach Blvd and noticed cars in the Autobacs parking lot. A sign was posted stating "Autobacs Re-Opens Under New Management." Today was the first day of the re-opening.

nice, I kinda liked Autobacs reguardless of the nay sayers. I was up there a couple of days ago and a employee was handling out $5 off coupons.

That is the only place I can get an alignment. I was depressed just for that reason. Hope the Covina one opens up.

Yea I saw this also ,my guess is they tried a lil stunt to get consumers to spend. I have seen many stores doing this.HAAHAHAHAH:rl:
And for those in SOCAL that need to alighn their cars ,read my sig been doing it for years or see me at IMPULSE CARS where we have the full digital rack.

i guess its official .. they sent me an email a few days ago. OPEN!~ i think its like 20 percent off or something.

03-31-2009, 02:27 AM
Yay....... but I still can't afford shit from there other than air freshners.
Seriously they failed because they expected people here in America to pay the ridiculous high price for their items that most vendors and shops sell for 30% off normally and their still charging msrp most of the time if not all the time.
They forget that America is all about best bang for the buck.
Hard to compete with ebay when the vast majority of the targeted customers think that way.

The only things they ever have really good deals on are the bubble shift knobs. 35-50 bucks there, compared to 60-90 bucks online.

What's the stock like?
Is it just like the autobacs 1 month ago?
soreballz
04-01-2009, 03:17 AM
^Yes.
Although, rumor has it that the new owners have some type of affiliation with the company that makes those shitty Ractive products. You know, the ricer filters and shit? So yeah, if that is true, which it may or may not be... Super Autobacs will soon be known as Super Vatobacs.

theres grant steering wheels in the display
soreballz
04-01-2009, 04:35 AM
^They've had Grant wheels since they opened.
JayDee M Rolly
04-01-2009, 04:44 AM
^yeah but since the sale they ran out of wheels to put in the display case and put the grants in there (and other cheap brands). theres only like 2 nardis in there.

ahah vatobacs good 1.
Yeah, I think Ractive was the brand one guy I know with a shitty eclipse got for his air filter... It looked like a Rated G version of Terminator...
Maybe it was a diff. brand but, I think that's what it was.

yea.. i was there last night. I saw all those cheap bucket seats posted in the front, and a few other pep boys products laying around the store. The store was still pretty much empty, but they did stock up more than they had the day they closed. I was talking to the guys there and it seems they are trying to regain the vendor contracts. I have always respected Superautobacs cause they carried all the cool stuff, I hope they do not start carrying all the egay (ebay) brands
