Steve, you have to admit the guy who bought your car would qualify as a pigeon! It was a great car but if he tried to sell it tomorrow he would be lucky to get $75k.
Excalibur, I love your optimistic view of corporate manufacturing practices. In an ideal world you would be 100% correct. However I hate to rain on your parade.
On a daily basis I see all sorts of companies from the smallest to the largest global conglomerates cheapening their product lines with the cheapest components they can buy. They put them in the same packaging with the same descriptions and dont say a word about the change. And guess what? The prices dont change one penny. In fact in many cases the prices increase and continue to increase every year.
As far as Evans comments.. I have never seen another individual on club cobra write as frequent uninformed and in many cases elementary comments on this website. If you are not knowledgeable on a subject, dont have the experience, or just flat out dont know the answer why do you have to hypothesize or make assumptions? You are an attorney so it would be fair to expect you to know better.
And what exactly did the replica industry do that makes them not lilly white? None of us know the exact history of the heart fund donation scandle. Are we to assume that all of the replica companies were wrong? That each replica company responded in the same exact fashion? That not one single replica company was proactive?
How can we expect that either side was rational in their private discussions about this subject? Are any of us qualified to say what would be fair and equitable to both parties? Were any of us actually privy to the conversations?
Was Richard Hudgins? From all of the posts it appears that he was privy to some of the discussions. And from past actions by many parties I am more swayed by Richards comments than anyone elses.
And how many years has Brent Fenimnore been an employee of SAI? Five years, Ten years, Fifteen years? Its amazing how much history can 'change' or memories become clouded/altered in that amount of time.
