i fvcking hope so >:O i went to the damn tow yard to bring her home and they could not even lift open the hood to give me a est. so me being broke, had the choice of $313.00 to bring her home and not know how bad it really is or $140 and pass the title. i gave the title, took my belongings stabed the dash, riped the seats, riped wires, removed air vents and steped on them until they crushed into peices, and keyed the side. I hated doing every bit of that and i was in tears man, but i did not want them fvcks at the tow yard who riped me so bad to make a fvcking dime off that car. I never took a pic of the wreak and i dont even have a picture of my car when i got it, all i have to remember it is memories. i have 1k in my bank account, i need to save for the next 6months to get another one. I wanna get another 92' 240sx f/b. It CANNOT be auto. why the f*** have a sports car that is auto!? that defeats the point. Sorry i cannot part the car out to you guys, i could not afford it. :'(

Hey man I know how you feel. Last summer the first day of summer actually I was going to the lake to chill and I'm at a stoplight and this lady in a Suburban rearended going 45 mph she never hit the brakes she was turned around messing with her baby. I ended up hitting my parents car and they hit another car. I couldnt move my left arm cause i hurt so bad. I just got out walked deliriously over to the side of the road sat down looked at my car and started crying. The lady came up to me and started apologizing and it took all I had in me to keep from screaming at her. I'll never forget my little green s14. But I was lucky and got alot of money from her insurance and was able to buy my white s14a. But no matter what it will never match up to my first love.

Guys, my first car was an 85 Maxima and it was terrible to me. Cost me tons of money. I eventually got rid of it and got the 200sx. The pain of loosing a car should be eased when you get another one. Look on the bright side and look ahead to the next vehicle. The pain is really bad if you worked on it yourself. The good side is you can get another one and be right back where you left off.

Thank you Rob (nlzmo400r) for your regards and the comment about me being a good man. I honesly was going to moroso with just my friends, but i remembered i have promised Ryan (my lil brother) that one day he will be able to watch my car run down the 1/4 with my engine screaming back at the honda to the left (and a lil back seeing imma be wooping his a5s) of me on track. and so it happen. he came home from school, i was packing my sh1t to get ready, then got the idea. i hoped on the phone, asked my mother if i could take him, then i hadda play it off that we were going to Mike's house to wash the cars, then we all were going to drive to some place in west palm to get all our mother's gifts for easter. My lil brother did not even have the slightest idea where he was really going. Then we got to the track and his face turned to me with the most lite up smile i have ever seen. i felt so good seeing him happy like that. It was almost as if i took him to disney or something. But the track worker shut his dreams down by telling us the track will be closed for the day. i promised my lil bro that i will take him within the next 2weeks so he can see my lil 240 run the 1/4. That day will not come. and i feel i let him down when i wreaked it. he loved that car too. he bragged to all his friends that his older brother has the coolest car and that it would beat all their brother's cars. I am rushing to save this money for a new 240. I hope it will grow on to me as the first one did. and i hope it does the same for my lil brother. Maybe then i can fix his dream of watching my car which we love so much fly down that track.

I know it's hard to find. I actually had to "settle" for my S14 because I couldn't find a decent S13. It was even harder for me because I was set on the coupe rather than the hatch.

Dude, i know exactly how your feeling right now. my prelude was ripped off a month ago here at school and the insurance wont do anything about it,and i also have the parents saying"another sports car doesn't fit you, you should get a mini-van" it really does suck to lose your car especially since its great to just blast off into the sunset when you want to clear your head. but hey, look at it this way, at least you got that one last drive and good bye with your car, i never got that, just the feeling of seeing an empty parking space. trust me, i think you'll be able to come up with a car for less than a grande cause i was able to find my 240 foir that, even if you have to do some work or nistall a new engine, it will help create a bond to the car, even though it wasn't your first. just thought i'd let you know that this s*** doesn't just happen to you, best of luck to ya.

Hey, how do you think I feel about losing my honda? It doesn't run 17 seconds like other ones. But look on the bright side, I got myself both s13 and s14 for really cheap through a friend. Your day will come, just gotta keep an eye out for it.

There is a canadian member on here registered under "freak" kept saying it how I could not build my 13.5 second civic. I hate people saying that other people cannot do anything better than them, and they don't even know that person. He even claimed that his car ran 13.5 with his stock KA24DE with intake, exhaust, and jwt ecu...how bs was that? He doesn't even say anything about it when I menioned that to him. If my other computer didn't fawk up, I would have kept that email and post it on here. I hate it now that i mentioned it...

Sorry your lude got swiped from you man, that really does suck. but you know what, we both and match in this one because you did not watch it slip from your fingers. you said i at least got to have my last joy ride with it, but the thing is bro, thats not true. i did not mean for it to leave me that day, and if you consider that my last ride, you still had yours when you parked it. but im not meaning to be a d1ckhead. i know what you ment. thats for all your support guys, you all really helped me alot through these times.

I just read all 6 pages of this thread man I'm board ;).

I feel for you it sounds like your feeling a little better thats good. For me 2 years ago I lost everything I had. I had no Family friends or girl to back me up or help all I had was a 87 ford taurus and the clothes on my back. I was sleeping in that car for some monthesI worked my a$$ off everyday sometimes I would work for 18 hours straight. I got myself back in school and slowly got back on my feet and today I have 4 nice cars and I'm working on my 5th a great apartment a wonderfull girlfriend I'm close to getting my BA In Computer Technology and I'm starting a shop of my own.

Moral of the story is life is a ***** and if you let it, it will take you for everything you got and everything you are. But if you set your sights on the prize and work hard and plan your way there you'll get everything you ever want in life. It also sounds like you have a real caring family take advantage my moms ditched me when I was 16 and I was out in the streets. But today I have my sights set on that Lamborghini Diablo and nothing can stop me from getting it. Nothing should stop you from getting your dream car either.

Some last wise words. If you feel you have nothing, know that there will always be hope, and nothing in this world could ever take that away, and if you got it once you can always get it again.

I hope thats not to sapy keep your head up Peace:peace
