http://carsguide.news.com.au/story/0...-21822,00.html which i originally found in the online "australian"

http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au...-26017,00.html

i have emailed the editor of the business section of the australian for clarification on Mr. King's "sportscar study" mention but so far no answer. Hoping one of you gents or Ladies knows someone who knows someone or would be willing to put a call in to teh paper etc .

Unfortunately carsguide dont have ANY contact details other than "Fill in a form and we MAY get back to you". Have you filled in the comments section or the contact us section?

Cheers

Have you tried a good old-fashioned cyberstalk for the journo in question. For example, he may have a myspace or facebook page. Commonish name though, so narrowing it down may be tough.

Out of curiosity, why do you want to contact him? Think he knows something more than he stuck in his article?

well the "sportscar" study has not revealed itself in frankfurt as he wrote it would so it would be nice to hear why he thinks it has not.

In the 40th Rotary year, it'd have a nice ring to announce the next RX-8 at the 40th Tokyo Motor Show......

well if you ring them and get someone to answer just exactly what he was writing about - that'd still be nice to find out.
