THE controversial pastor who incited international outrage over a threat to burn copies of the Koran on the ninth anniversary of 9/11 terror attacks will receive a new car for calling off the demonstration. New Jersey car dealer, and former New York Giants centre, Brad Benson made a promotional radio offer at the height of the controversy to give Terry Jones a brand new Hyundai if he canceled the burn. Jones, who abandoned the public burning on the eve of the September 11 anniversary following pressure from President Obama and Defence Secretary Gates, came to collect on the car dealer's offer earlier this month. David Cantin, general manager at Brad Benson Hyundai, says Pastor Jones called the dealership about ten days ago to arrange delivery of the vehicle. "He lived up to his end of the bargain, and we're living up to our end," Mr Cantin said. He added Pastor Jones would receive a 2011 Hyundai Accent, expected for delivery by the end of next week. The listing price for a new Accent starts at $US13,329.

I'd take the new car, then call all the major national media to video it chocked FULL of Korans ... THEN set it on fire ..

A new Hyundai? I wonder if there wasn't a misprint in the Seoul dailies when this story was hot? Does Spain build any good cars? I have an idea...

Get the word out! I've got 3 bibles, 2 korans and tora on the weber ready to go. Don't make me flick my Bic, pilgrim......I'm not bluffing.

A Hyundai? ------- I'd start with the Guineas, don't settle for some cheap-ass FIAT.

I think you have to nail 14 points to the front door of the factory in Stuttgart to qualify for that.

With all of the international chaos because of Koran burning, he should have held out for a Porsche.
