see these two sites

They both say that shortening have or has when they mean possession is INCORRECT

and there are a lot more sites, but these tow are talking clearer about the issue
and most of the other sites are forums, and I didn't want to use forums to support my opinion

although, British people use the form "I've a car" but only as a slang maybe

But I didn't find any thing that supports the form "He's a car" not even as a slang

and I think the reason is because it's very confusing, see this example:

He's a problem

it could mean:

He has a problem
or
He is a problem

they are completely different from each other

You are right but I think that i saw it somewhere

and somehow it's correct
But To be honest with you
I'm 99% not sure


I've a car"= I have got a car =right ?
