Your car is great. That clock is stupid. :P

Not exactly the best looking clock for $200.  Should have used the tic toc tach instead of the speedo.


Too bad some people can't use their own photography.

If the car on the clock had an orange top and some sort of letters on the side??-- :scratchchin:  I think it would sell fast and furious. :lol:

 :rofl:  I know it's not funny anymore but dam.   There's gotta be something you can do.   Unless you posted pictures somewhere and the fine print says you gave up the rights to the pictures and didn't know it.   I think I'd be on the phone.

I'm not sure........ I never really pursued it.  I guess its cool to have the car on things but damn I should get something out of it!   Its MY car & I took the picture!   Its not someone that took a pic of my car at a show etc....I took the pic myself back in 2004!

I can't imagine he'd really want one.

Not sure you can do too much really. Did you guys here about the fella who had been selling other people's Instagram photos for 90k a piece. I think it ok for him to do that, but read for yourself

So....does it say cuckoo when the time is right, or does it go HONK HONK or something?

That looks like one horrific piece of junk. The clock that is, not your car.
Who even buys this kind of crap?

For $50 or so, I'm in. For $200, they can keep it.

WANT TO BUY:
Looking for a CD by  'The Sub-Mersians'  entitled "Raw Love Songs From My Garage To Your Bedroom"

Also, any of the various surf-revival compilation albums this band has contributed to.

If you took the picture, you own the rights to it. You absolutely have a case if it is used without your consent. I would be hunting a lawyer.

Advert claims they took the time to pay the licencing rights for the trademarks, so go after them for your photo royalties as well.

They need to drop that price but maybe they wanted some extra in case they have to pay those royalties you should be getting Chris.

:2thumbs: :lol:  Good point. "They" whoever they are most likely know the risk they are taking to make a buck. It is part of the business of enterprise and risk management. :shruggy:

Dosen't the entire thing look Photoshopped?

Ghoste

They have a Mustang and a Corvette one I think so why not a Charger one too?

Alaskan_TA

Pretty sure that he would not have taken any Mustang or Corvette photos.

Look at the bright side.  It's not Charger R/T toilet paper.


440

I wonder if it clicks up the miles as it runs?
