    Angry Hit and run on my Cobra, $250 reward

    I am highly fucking angry. Friday night I went out to a club with some SVTOA friends. On the way home, someone in a black 4-door Mercedes-Benz sedan ran me off the road and fled the scene. He slammed into my Cobra's passenger side rear wheel while INTENTIONALLY swerving to prevent me from passing him. My car spun sideways and smashed into a curb before I regained control. I escaped with no injuries, but my rims are covered in Benz rash, my tires are shredded, my fender is gouged up, and there's no telling what damage he did to my suspension.

    I'm out $250 for the deductible on my insurance if I can't find this guy, so here it is: I am offering a $250 bounty for any information leading to the arrest and conviction of this man. I'm posting this far and wide, and I'm going to contact all the local body shops and dealerships. If you see a late model black, 4-door Mercedes-Benz sedan (I'm almost positive it's an S430) with damage to the front driver's side corner, I want to know. If you work at a Benz dealership and this car comes in for repairs, I want to know. If you work at a body shop, and this prick rolls in looking for an estimate, I want to know.

    Again, the car is a black, late model, 4-door Mercedes-Benz sedan, probably an S430. The driver was a white male who looked to be in his mid to late twenties, and he had 2 passengers, also white males. He was last seen at approximately 11:00 PM on Friday, January 20th fleeing the scene of a crime on New Northside drive (top end of I-285) after leaving the Mardi Gras Grille.

    If you have any information about this guy, please contact the Fulton County Police at 770-551-7600 (case number is 2006-002461) and drop me a PM. If you or anyone you know works at a dealership or a body shop in the area, please distribute this information to them. If you hang out on any other forums where Atlanta drivers might see it, please post a link to this thread.

    get the police involved, they can check all credit card transactions at Mardi Gras that night, and see the cars registered to those people. Maybe they will find a match.

    That is too much work for something so little...

    Do you have any idea how many credit card charges would occur there in 1 night...

    but not so many right around 11pm .

    but they wouldn't go to that length anyway, even if it would be a quick cross-reference deal.

    You can bet I would have, but he spun me 90 degrees, and I bounced off the curb down the entrance ramp to 285. He was out of sight by the time I rolled to a stop, and I would've had to turn around and drive back up the ramp against traffic to follow him anyway.

    I dialed 911 as soon as I got my car off the road, so I least have a police report, but I don't think they're going to go any farther with it. No one was injured, so they have bigger fish to fry.
