Even though he stated the so call correct vin in the auction the title is clearly screwed up. You cant sell that car with that title and I'm thinking he is going to have a hard time correcting the tittle issue. My .02 cents.

It's not too tough to correct in Michigan. Just need to have the VIN inspected...if it's a simple omission like this it's easy. If it's an incorrect digit it usually means having to take apart the car to view the CON VIN location.
