Speed Unlimited Inc

I purchased a distributor, ignition coil and bracket for my Pontiac GTO back in 2012. I worked with Pete. The distributor turned out to be defective, I had to have a muscle car specialist call him and confirm the part was bad. Speed Unlimited took the part and was going to send it back to the manufacturer but never replaced or refunded $ 512.12 I spent. Customer beware, stay clear of this place. Pete was insulting to me, so if you like being abused and ripped off buy from this business.

Overpriced and way over-​rated because they are basically the only game in town. Hence, they come in with that attitude. You are better off going online for a better price and technical assistance. These guys are only interested in making a sale even if it’s wrong. Here’s the kicker — NO REFUNDS! Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. Experienced gearheads around town refer to them as SPEED UNREASONABLE.

First of all. The guy that wrote the review in 2011 is completly wrong. There is NO way they «track people down» to find someone’s address. He must have purchased something and they had him on file. That is the ONLY way they would have that info. HE provided it. And let’s be real here, you received a flyer about a sale that happens once a year. Really? That bothered you enough to call and write a bad review online? Let’s be real people, No one wants a customer complaining, not to mention someone that acts like this guy. I’d rather give him back his money after 10 years then to deal with his ass. Nicey B is a liar, plain and simple. He is a internet troll that writes false reviews. Why do I say this you ask? I used to work there. No one would EVER have done what he said… EVER. It is a family owned business thats been around for a long time because of great customer service.
On another note, great salespeople and HUGE show room. Just shows that guy is a liar. It is truly the biggest automotive sales floor you will ever see. All the stuff from online and magazines right in front of you. Knowledgable staff and open 7 days a week. What more could you ask for? Great job Pete! A++. N.S.

Never had a bad experiance with these guys, every time I call them to ask if they have a part in stock it is and when ever I got to pick it up its always ready behind there counter even if I dont tell them Im coming to pick it up. Them also being open on Sundays is a big + for people like me who only have time to work on my own cars on the weekends and there prices are not that bad compared to online prices. Overall they deserve a 5*+ rating.

In the category of speed shops in the DC area, this place is about as good as it gets. They’ve been in business for over 40 years, and have outlasted many other shops in the region — I think it’s for three reasons. 1: location right off of the Beltway, 2: it’s big enough that it has most of the muscle car parts that you will need, and 3: These guys know what they are talking about. Most of us buy parts off the internet, but if you get the wrong thing and have to send it back, that process can take two weeks total. These guys are there for returns, but more importantly, they’ll make sure that you get the right carburetor springs in the first place.
The cons: they can be expensive, but our carb was the same price there as on the internet, so price is hit or miss. There’s always a racing DVD on the flat screens and there’s a dragster simulator for entertainment. If you have to get an engine running and have one Saturday to do it, this is your best bet. More importantly, you’ll usually leave with more HP than you came in with.

Purchased a gauge mount from them years back for my car because it was the only aftermarket car parts store we could find around the area.
We recently moved, and some way, some how they’ve found our new address and I’m receiving mail directly to our new home. I made a friendly call asking to be removed from their mailing list and their two employees, including a manager I talked to were completely rude, didn’t give a f*ck, were lazy and basically would not provide any help what so ever. They seemed offended that I did not want to be receiving junk mail from them.
This kind of jack-​ass service isn’t a surprise, since when we bought our gauge mount years back the guys were rude and unprofessional too. Its unfortunate they have no competition in the area for car parts because their heads are blown up so big, they’ve developed a «i’m-the-shit-and-you-need-me» attitude when it comes to doing business. Yuck.
Jerk offs like these don’t deserve business if they refuse to take care of their customers. Take my warning: they’ll harass you with mail and refuse to help you years down the road. Moving? Don’t worry, they’ll find you, and refuse to find the source of the problem for you. They could give a damn less about their customers satisfaction.
Small shop, poor location near Andrews AFB, and a shitty small show room. Most parts you’ll need will most likely take time to order any how. And at that rate, I’d suggest you buying directly online from some other source that would take better care of you, and not harass you years down the road and hunt you down with your new address.
And PS. No, it was not forwarded from the post office.
