[Shotimes] celebrity SHO ownership

[Donald Mallinson]

Yea, I agree, if the car is still owned by the original owner, then yes 
it is a one owner car, even if sitting on a dealers lot on consignment, 
or listed by a friend.  That might be the case with this car, but I 
doubt it.  I would ask who the check is made out to. 

Again, anytime money changes hands, that is a new owner in my book.
