I hope Amex come through for me. I am confident they will as I have faxed them about 100 pages (including this thread) of information backing my story.

I am willing to help prosecute this guy. I've actually talked to him, and he is a real piece of work.

Off Topic, but welcome to the forum. Sold my S2000 last year. Was the most fun car I never had the time to drive in my life.
I know YOU called them, that was a little joke actually for davidmbowser@gm when he mentioned his company was try to raise VC for his business :p

Congrats on the step up to an adult's car! But look at all the troubles that came along with it... happens everywhere with every type of car. Looks like you guys are coming out not too much worse for the wear in this one fortunately.

With my VISA cards I can actually call in to the customer service line to review (verbally, obviously) the transactions that have not posted to my account yet. Perhaps you both could do this to expedite things and find out if it's really gone through.

I wonder if it would be possible to get Howard Stern interested in this story?

Someone REALLY needs to make a cliff notes sticky thread thats locked with all the current info on the guy without any other posts.

Then we can focus on what info we have and take the next step.
I think we(E1000) are working on cliff notes now, hoping to have an MBW mod maybe post them in the original post or something

A wiki or google sites page would work best IMO. Get the help of the community. Not just 1 or 2 people

Can you describe his demeanor? accent? And do the phone numbers match? (if you were able to get it)
