    "You are using a copyrighted name that we are owners of since 1968. Please refrain from use of the name Jerrari immediatly or we will be forced to take further action.

    Tell them to send you 50,000 dollars and you'll change your name. Anything less than that and you'll haul them into court for harassment.

    Your use of their copyrighted name has probably taken a real chunk out of their business. Oh, that and the fact that 99% of the Fiat 124's have rusted into the ground. Ad shown is from R&T, January 1972. Same company?

    If anything, this thread has gotten them more attention than anything they've done on their own in the past 10 years!!

    (Disclaimer. I am not at all sure that's really true. However, based on my one person poll (me), and with this being the first I've ever heard of any of the companies, I have extrapolated the result posted above.:D)

    Yes, this whole incident has caused me a great deal of stress, mental anguish and quite frankly a disgruntled view of the human race as a whole. I don't even want to go outside anymore for fear that the neighbors are whispering behind my back. I don't think $50,000 will cover it.

    LOL! That's absurd. What the hell does a username have to do with copyright issues? Maybe a website domain I could understand.

    You're my hero! Make it $500,000,000 and settle for half or a third out of court. I get 10% for my idea, don't say it wasn't mine or I'll sue you for causing me a great deal of stress, mental anguish and intellectual theft.

    I love this continent! Long live oil, money and whoever has enough power to kill and not even be charged! WooHoo!

    Good thing the real Zorro doesn't care. He'd show up to my house, hang from the ceiling fan, take out his sword, sign my shirt and leave a little dust trail when running away full bore.

    Ha ha...good one!! I wish someone would post a pic of that thing again, for crying out loud it's been 2 months since I've seen a repost on it. I miss seeing that bastard with the hat and the pipe driving it.

    Tim,
    I'm Soooooooo sorry that you had to get dragged into this whole mess, I feel awful. (with teary voice) This has just been a nightmare! I will most certainly chuck you 10% of my structured settlement....that's the least Jerrari....I mean ah "Jerry" can do. Please be strong my East side friend...we'll pull through this thing together.
