Ray Crowe
 

I just wanted to post a thank you to Ray for hooking up the members the way he does. I called a local mazda dealership for a relay today on the 21st and they quoted me $32 and said it'd be here on the 24th. I call Ray after I get off the phone with the first dealer and he tells me the relay will be $17 and he can get it to me by tomorrow for a total of ~$25. Excellent customer service and he knows what the hell he's talking about. :icon_tup:

Ray, he's the man, helped me out on several occassions.

Agreed, Ray is the shiznit!!!

i called him with a really hard to find part and within mins he had part numbers and discounted quotes. Great guy!

agreed, ray is the guy to go to for oem parts. although one time i tried to order the throttle body to plenum gasket from him, and he told me it didnt exist, lol. i have no clue wat that was about..

Ray is a great guy. Good service and has always hooked me up with parts!

I called Ray from Canada when I did my non-sequential conversion. He knew exactly all the gaskets I needed (he would finish saying the part number before I could), the prices where great and I had them within a day or two!!!!! Remeber I am not even in the same country!

Great guy and great service!!!

I've never had a sale go smoother than when I deal with him. Tell him what I need...he quotes me a price that ia always lower than everybody else....sale done in 2-3 minutes tops. Ive actually received items the next day from him.

Has anyone asked Ray if he knows how long Mazda might be continuing to make parts ... I know that's probably an answer that he might not know directly from corporate (not inquiring about a date) ... but he is the most knowledgeable person about the FD, at Mazda here in the US, that many people here have worked with ... soo? And maybe he's got some connections who know something about the highly speculative next gen rx7.. then I can decide, get an FD or the new one... can't wait till 2010, sorry.

Ray has help me over the years to put together my 94 black R2. Thousands of dollars of parts and many stupid question later the car runs and looks good even though I did the work myself. Ray, as you read this, I truly appreciate your help and commitment.

Many Thanks
Doc

I recall a thread for Ray back in the day, had a crap ton of posts.

Props to ray - guy constantly goes out of his way to help.

Yup, I can't wait to have another cold one with the man at the Deal's Gap Rotary Rally this year :beer: :beer: :D

I'll go ahead and email this link to him, I'm sure he'll appreciate it :icon_tup:

Yes ray is the shiznit

I can't count how many times I've ordered parts from Ray. He has always come through with both service, knowledge, AND price!

Thanks Ray,

Ian in Miami

+1 for Ray being the man :icon_tup: :icon_tup:

Ditto....I'd rather order from Ray than any UK Mazda dealer!! I just have to wait till I need a few bits so the postage is worth it ;)

Ditto ++ I've ordered from Ray several times now and won't go anywhere else. His service is very professional and parts arrive ASAP.

Ive Ordered A Bunch Of Parts From Ray. He Is The Best Person To Get Oem Parts From...thanks Ray!!

Ray was recently a huge help getting a couple parts so my car could pass inspection. I'll probably be ordering again shortly...

Thanks! :yum:

Lol, I go and start this thread, but my overnight order got sent by express mail instead. He apologized and credited the money back to me, so it's no big deal, he's still the best parts manager I've ever dealt with.

Its always been a good experience dealing with Ray!!!!! Cant say enough good things about him.
An asset to us all.

Ray is always good to work with, fast service, knows RX7 parts, and has everything from trim clips to engine to suspension, etc.

saved me 50 bones on a TPS compared to the local dealer. AND he actually knows what you're talking about when you ask him about a part--like the subtle differences between model years and stuff

:bluesuit:Without Ray we wouldn't be able to order anything OEM for our cars. Everyone else is a moron, lol..

I have ordered thousands of dollars worth of parts from Ray over the past couple of years. Always the best prices and the service is simply the best. Do yourself a favor and lookup the word "service" in your dictionary and you'll see a picture of Ray!
