I'll guarantee you the first comment (from one of two or three people here first) will be "what an idiot you are" rather than a compliment like "what a nice car you've boght". Why bother? Good luck thinking you'll be able to trash his sale though.
Trust me, when you're buying a $200,000 +/- used vehicle, you're going to want to know the history. It's just common sense in the Year 2016. That's why folks in all sorts of car forums post VIN's, because they know future buyers will want to know the history. Whether the buyer signs up here at ClubCobra is an entirely different statement from the one which you made.

And Evan's car doesn't get "bashed," everyone here recognizes that it's one of the best of its kind. It's Evan that became the "lightning rod." Any new owner, if there's an actual sale some day, will get a fresh start. I can't remember any legitimate current or future Cobra owner being "trashed."

Oh, there was a member that left CC after selling his Kirkham about 10 years ago, his CC moniker was "rsimoes." He definitely riled up the masses.
