I fully understand where everyone is coming from on all of their points.
1. It seems like people who dont have rich parents(me) are basically just jealous that Juice is able to do what he did and just say hey dad I f*cked up the car Pay for it Plz.
2. Where as people who are like him with rich parents sympathize with him because that is how they are raised. You aren't going to get the two sides to agree.

As for me...................I dont have any problems with ya Juice, I just hope you realize how lucky you are, and hopefully you will learn from your mistakes and get some more practice and another set of wheels spinning before you hit the snow again....
No you idiot you obvliously don't understand. My whole point was that he LIED to his dad and didn't admit it was his fault. I'm not trying to come off as jealous... Oh **** this Ive already explained myself countless times.

Wow I can't imagine how angry my parents would be if they paid for everything I broke. They paid for my first repair...a wheel bearing, and I felt guilty and started doing everything myself from there

im doing my second wheel bearing now.. saving myself about 150$ by doing it myself.. with 2 bearing going to be done.. thats savings of 300$ by using my labor..


+ oil changes, rotors/pads.... **** if i didnt do stuff myself it would be expensive... thing is there is a HIGH markup on german parts...

(as you can see I am diverting the topic of this thread...)

i think the dealer techs would pass out if they had to work on your car.

no, they would be like "YES, more stuff to break and charge him for!!!" "dude lets drive it around the block and see how high we can jump it"


rebuilding a motor... 2600 for labor most likely.. and then the parts...

parts depending on what you need would run about 1000

so about 4k to rebuild a motor .... hell the dealer might even charge more...

pulling and dropping a motor would most likely cost atleast 800$

well **** im sorry i made such a big mistake guys. waht just happened a few days ago does not affect how my life will turn out. how does this make me irresponsible and spoiled and so on. i am very responsible, if u knew me, but what happened freaked me out and i didnt want to tell them. its plain and simple. and so im irresponsible and dont give a fuvk if my parents have to pay a large sum of money on my car. like i said before, since im not able to give them any money, i said i would pay them back in the future when i have my job. and dont get many things that u all think im sure. my family is not even rich. but ****, if repairs need to be done and the car is undriveable, and that i dont have the money, how will i get around. yall just blow everything out of proportion. parents are divorced also, making the money situation hard for my parents. my redemption will be be paying them back later. i just dont see how it makes me look the way yall say i do? ya lied, i shouldnt have, but i freaked and didnt. but that doesnt make me a bad person at all. every1 lies. but none of this will affect the way i am or how my future will come. an irresponsible child would not pay his parents back, making me not irresponsible for having good judgment on repaying them back. but i can deff say taht i was being irresponsible with what i did. but ive learned my mistake and will never do something like that again only if i have great experience. and dont say that i wouldnt pay my parents back because thats absurd, they are my parents. i just hope every1 will understand...
