Well let's just break that down. Here in the OP of this thread he lobbied for a new car. (It's clear to me)

Then, if this story you just posted is accurate, he reverses his concerns for an extra 6k he'd wave those concerns.

His car was worth WAY more to him than it would be to anyone else. (as are ALL of our cars I suppose) The difference is that I realize that. And I would hope and ask for what I think it's worth but would take a minimum of a comparable car. I'd expect that they'd give me some extra in some way but that would be up to them.

I have a few well documented deals on here that went south. I've been told by a good number of members that I have WAY more patience than they would. And ultimately I only called out one company. Savini wheels. I documented well and everyone knows that they hosed me and a few other members. I only say that to show that I am not trying to hold the OP to some kind of outrageous standard. I dont' see where he gave the dealer much time before the internet mob was called out.

Things may have happened the way they have been presented but I'd be surprised. This dealer has been trashed and we have a few people in this thread that have refuted some of what the OP has said. Does not make Hooper wrong. But nobody here knows him personally not the dealer and it's interesting to see the piling on and flocking to one side of a story.
