LoL being stuck in China with little to do I appreciate the 40+ pages of reading. To the OP good luck with all this it seems you have the community and law on your side. I'm glad he hasn't scammed you into getting the car back and you made the proper calls.
BTW anyone jumping on from other forums to post read everything so useless questions/info are not getting reposted. Lets keep this thread going with useful/legendary info!
MAKE DONATIONS! I put in mine from freaking China!
