Well you may or may not know that I sold my supra about a month ago. The 17 year old kid who bought broke it the night he got it. :nono::cry: Called me up at 4 am and said the car is busted. I talked to his dad and told him that it needed some work before it would be track ready and that if he hot rodded it they would know cause he would break it. Dad says OK he is wanting somthing he can drive and fix at the same time. I say ok done deal. After the kid takes off his dad lets me know that his friends all call him the "drift king", I said oh crap its going to be broke for sure. So I stop the kid talk to him and tell him if he goes and drifts this car somthing is gonna give and it WILL break.
Kid says Oh I know I'm gonna fix it up some more before I do that, I said ok. Well I get the call and he is pissed and I'm like I warned you. It got you home fine (he lived an hour away), I've drove the car for a year and a half and the alternator gave out, replaced it ran fine again. I said I'll come over and look at it tomorrow and see what I can do to help, maybe as simple as giggleing a wire he says ok I'll call you, never called. I figured he fixed it and he was hunky dory, couple days later he is blowing my phone up with text messages, saying I hooked up the fuel lines wrong and the coil packs are bad etc..
I said look I'm sorry it broke but the deal is made I told you it problems and obviously if you have wrecked 4 cars in two years of driveing there is somthing wrong and stopped talking to him since. Now a couple days ago he texts me saying somthing about I could have killed him and and what not I just ignored it.
My problem here is I know he is just a hotheaded teenager and wants a running car, I could probably go over and fix it quickly but do I want to fix a turbo charged car for a teen who already wrecked 4 cars not broke down but wrecked them bad enough that they had to damage them out for insurance reasons (05 cobalt, 96 240sx, 2 honda civics). I mean I feel bad now but what if he I do fix it and he wraps it around a pole and dies I'd feel even worse ya know. So just me typing this out to see what you would do. Thanks
