Hmmmm...
I think the car devaluation is a valid concern, long term. CS has shown an absolute willingness to 'mold' the truth to make a sale. Certainly the 'lost' chassis verify that. In reading the Cummings letter it appears CS is asking for all the paperwork SAAC has, including the holy grail, texts of the VIN/SFM# correlations. IF Cs gets these in his hands, what will become of them? Will you have to pay to validate your car? Will chassis appear in a warehouse from magic dust? What of the Cobra information? I have to ask if any of us believe that CS would have hesitated a nano-second to install his 30 or so 'lost chassis' as 'original'. Bottom line, what affect would snake oil have on the purity (even if perceived) of the registry? If CS's designs are pure of heart, why file to TM 'SAAC' before the cease and desist letter? And if SAAC is to function, how can they without all of the supposed TM's referred to by CS (Cobra,GT350,GT500,etc...)? As Ron said, we all will have to take a seat and wait for the outcome, but anyone who thinks the fall of SAAC would be a ripple in the water is, IMHO, a friggin' idiot.
