Seems like a lot of time and expense just to prove someone wrong on an internet forum.

No. If you have to do that then what is the issue?
And I am not trying to prove anybody wrong. If people are stupid enough to think that getting wet from one rain incident should write off a car I know they are never going to understand the real world.
Besides you were the one holding the grudge enough to bring to topic back up so FU.

Move to Canada, apparently.

Yeah, you're right, I'm wrong, What else is new?

LOL Sure. Pick a fight then go all passive aggressive.
Typical.

I sent a huge puddle over my passenger and into the back seat in mid November 2018... Had to pull the rear seat cushion because of the pools of water. Even being garaged and below freezing a lot by spring it was all dry and no evidence of mold,even to someone rather allergic to mold. So I've proven it never happens to anyone.

A guy on the lotus board is selling a race prepped Elise for a mere $55k

LOL Sure. Be unable to calmly defend your point of view without resorting to saying "Fuck you, you're an idiot."
Typical.

He is referring to a thread where somebody at a shop left the windows open on a car and rain got in. It was immediately taken to a detailing shop and dried out.
Of course in typical car forum fashion the Clueless Brigade jumped in and said the car was ruined, should be totaled and insurance or the shop should by them a new one. Apparently none have ever owned a convertible or lived where it snows.

No rational talk of a bit of rain water not being an issue could prevail and of course they all got bent of of shape and went on the attack when it was even suggested to be OK. You want to guess who their fearless leader was in the battle? I thought it had been put aside when he returned but I guess not.

I tried that method before and it didn't work so thought maybe this would get through. I was of course wrong.

That's a good price. I have been seeing stock Elise's around here for 55k. Granted they are super low mile and more stock seems to be more dollars for that crowd. I few years back when I contemplated selling the BRZ for an older Cayman or Elise they were about 30K

That's not even a factually accurate account of the discussion that took place in that thread.

But ignoring that, you still got triggered by the mere mention of it when I brought it up sarcastically again, instead of just letting it go/ignoring the post. So who's the one holding a grudge exactly?

There was no reason to bring it up at all except as a dig. A dig in good humour is fine but your comment was not light hearted nor an attempt to be funny.

I missed an opportunity to send you pics of moss growing on the FRS before I cleaned it a few weeks ago.
