F.Y.I. A 2007 survey conducted by the American Management Association (AMA) revealed that 43% of the responding companies monitor employee email, and 28% of them had fired an employee for misusing email. (Source: https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclope...ead-30088.html)

When I read lost opportunity for potential value.... makes me think - I wonder how many of these were being bought by flippers lol

Many guys bought GT cars with an ADM this past 1-2 years from a salesperson other than Shiraaz at Champion. Can anyone share how they paid for the ADM? To what account, and did the ADM show up on the car final paperwork?

Just curious. PM me or share here. All comments as to source are confidential via PM.

Merged threads and "Champion Porsche" is not in the title?

That is important not only as the location but also to give credit as they seem to be stepping up and solving these with each party as cars are available

This is the mentality that I and many in this thread seem to disagree with. What you and others are losing site of with this pitchfork brigade is that there are customers who want cars, and who want their dreams fulfilled. PCNA stepping up and getting cars to customers doesn't have to have anything to do with Champion. They could route them through another dealer, they could continue to attempt to penalize Champion, they could do any number of things. What this comes do to in my mind is Porsche stepping up and trying to take care of the customer, and getting them cars would be a big step towards doing that.

Looks like the mods took down my thread: THE HUNT FOR SHIRAAZ---A REAL "SHIRAAZ-HOLE"
My intent was to create a thread to keep up with developments of tracking down this Shirazz-hole. The current thread has become cumbersome to navigate due to so many folks chiming in about ADM BS.

I don't think the site wants responsibility for "tracking" him down.....and I don't blame them....let the authorities do that.....sooner or later he'll show up.....the likely hood of him saving a significant amount of money to run and hide is slim.....whatever he does have will run out sooner or later.....

Dealers would like because customers would not have to bug sales people for order status.
Bingo!

Don't read it then. There has been a lot of discussion here and ADM has been a small part of it.

So who's tracking him down? You in the Secret Service, FBI, or Special OP's? Start with learning how to spell his last name first

Please don't distract HERE. Thanks.

Ok I'll be nice. Why don't you ask the mods why they closed it? Assume if they closed it, they probably don't want it here either.

We're not here to hatch a man hunt operation. If it's a joke, so be it. You made the comments about being sick of the discussion here. Like I tell the others, don't click on it then.

I have to agree that this thread is venturing into a crusade that goes beyond what makes sense for RL. Fine to discuss ways to help the victims and things that should be done prevent something like this from happening again, but finding SS is a job for law enforcement, and there are some things that need to be worked out directly by the parties involved and their lawyers.

If Champion didn't respond right away and directed inquiries to their lawyers, nothing wrong with that, they need to size up the situation and get legal advice before taking steps they might regret. That's exactly what I'd do if I was in their shoes.

IMO, there's way too much speculation in this thread, and people already "sure" of things they can't be sure of. I'm glad some credible people are now coming out and telling us about their experiences with Champion.
