Correct, we don't know who has and who hasn't, generally speaking other than whether they state on their websites and printed materials that they are licensed by CS. But it appears that CS sees the settlement with FFR as being a separate matter with respect to the Daytona Coupe. Or at least he thinks his more recent US Trademark on the Daytona trade dress gives him the ability to assert a new claim.
