If anyone is stupid enough to drive anything that feels like a wheelbearing or major suspension component going south... when the car OBVIOUSLY NEEDS TO BE TOWED... then you should not pay for their stupidity.

You let $3500 worth of car go for $2500, tell the kid to sit on some fist.

Well you just replied but...

Have you even seen the car since the accident? You can easily change honda brakes in 3 hours. They prolly screwed up and now are passing the blame onto you. And where is this $1K coming from? To ramdom of a number and theres no way the damage was professionally assesed in that time either.

Nope I haven't seen it..they were supposedly driving back home and live like about 2-3 hrs away. Well I warned them about the brakes and I know damn well they were having fun with the boost and slamming on the brakes etc etc...hell they even said they were going to take it drag racing on that same night of the purchase which was last night. The $1k came out of his ***. This is what he said "we could of died, do you think you can refund me $1000."

They're just trying to make some money off it. ---- them. They bought a used car that needed a certain amount of work and were taking it drag racing which shows they were obviously going to be romping on it before they even looked anything over on the car. Unless there was some type of written warranty(which I highly doubt)....---- em.

I made my neighbor sign a statement that said that he was fully aware the car he was purchasing was heavily modified and there was no implied warranty for repairs or even the legality of its use on the street. I also told him he could blow it up just going around the corner to his house and that I don't care nor do I want to hear about it. It took him 3 months of punishing it and turning the boost up to 15 psi to blow the motor.

Well I just got off the phone with the kid...and he apologized about him getting all pissed off last night. AND the real story was the lugnuts came loose and the wheel fell off and nothing broke...I'm not sure how they got loose but everything is all good now..

Probably put on slicks or drag radials and forgot to tighten the lugs down...
