View Full Version : So this kid who lives near me wrecked his Scion.
rbloedow 01-28-2004, 05:30 AM He got it for his birthday (IIRC, 16 or 17 years old), parents bought it for him last year from CA, and brought it to FL. The whole side is smashed in :(
Which is why I'm an advocate for kids buying their own cars - they'll respect it and be more careful since it is their property. Inexperienced drivers and new cars don't mix. It just hurts to drive by it :(
swtbabiboi4u 01-28-2004, 05:40 AM wow horrible! n e ways post pictures!!!!!!! hahah i wanna see the damage and how much the car took to the side :shock:

Exclusive 01-28-2004, 07:05 PM Who's fault was it, your blaming it on the kid and it may not have been his fault. Oh and pics would be nice :lol:
yanges 01-28-2004, 07:10 PM i bought my first car the week i turned 16 :D
the guy i was working for came to my house and told my dad that if he would co-sign for me, that he would keep me busy so i could pay for it.....
xBassist 01-28-2004, 07:47 PM hehe, I'm 21 yrs old, my girlfriend is 19... She wasn't really interested in getting her license at 16 (wierd I know) because I basically drove her around everywhere. (We've been dating since she was 15, I was 17 almost 18.) anyways... So she waited until she was 17 til she got her license... And her parents bought her a 2000 VW Beetle... Well, needless to say... she passes her driving test, gets her license, and goes out for her first drive alone after getting her license... Pulls in the car wash.. washes her car... Drives out and hits a fence right behind the car wash... rofl
When I have a kid, they are getting some old $300 ____ter like I had for my first car. Then they can just tear it up and wreck it, whatever, have fun.. My first car, btw was a 3-cylindar 86' Chevy Sprint.
HotBox 01-28-2004, 07:52 PM shyt i aint having kids mayb one day after im dead but teach them when theyre young i learned when i was 10 we used to have a 10 acre ranch and i learned in there then by 12 we moved back into the city and i was already on the streets so teach them while theyre young so that one happen
DibujoB 01-28-2004, 08:50 PM That sucks. But seing as how the whole side was banged it, it probably wasn't his fault...sounds like he got T-boned (unless he ran a stop light or something.) Regardelss, that's no fun...and If I'm ever cursed enough to have kids, they're going to buy their own cars, and they're going to be beaters!
