from the ebay page...

This is a 1995 Nissan Maxima.One owner, has been garage kept
so how could you have bought the car with your own money if its has had only 1 owner? i doubt you could have bought it in 95 as you are 16 in 2002. so technically your parents own the car. and always have...


SO i get back to work nervous as hell and a guy meets me at the front door.
then he knew you, he knew where you work. he could not have followed you because he was already there when you came in now could have he.

OH and by the way the best part i paid a few grand cash for my 1995 max but i dont get any of it back.
read the first quote above.. who you buy it from, dad?

and then, you said you wrote the ebay description yourself. now why would you do that? i mean, if your car has already been sold when you made it home then.. dude it doesn't add up. sorry.

consider for a minute that you are a victim of a conspiracy by your parents, what is it to them? from your posts you say that they took your license because you worked 30 minutes later or whatever. so if they could do that, why can't they just take your car straighforward? going to all these lenghts just sounds pointless to me.

i do beleive that you did loose your max, i just do not comprehend the story. as far as i am concerned, you did something stupid in front of a cop, you are 16 and ended up in a mess.

This new eBay development makes things seem fishy now. I might've spoken too soon up there. But at least the parents thing still stands.

So here is what I have read so far.

An off duty Police Officer was originally going to cite you for reckless driving when you swerved around him, to avoid hitting him, but now he's not going too, after talking with your father.

Your parents are selling your car as a result of the incident.

Ok, as most of you guys know I am a Police Officer, and it takes a LOT to get me to bother with anyone when I am off duty. Generally I ignore anything that isn't possibly going to kill someone, and most other Officers don't want to be bothered off duty either.

If he went out of his way, I am guessing you were obviously doing more than what you say or think you were, like using excessive speed, or maybe passing him on the right because you were mad that a slower car got in your way. Just a guess.

Even after all that he was nice enough to just let your father handle it, and probably just wanted to let you sweat it out about the citation, and I wouldn't be surprised if your father knew that as well.

Take it as a valuable lesson learned, and when you are able to get another car, I am sure you will remember what happened, and hopefully you will drive more responsibly.


I think you have great parents that care about your well being.

I worked an accident where a teenage driver, in an Acura Legend sedan, was going around 60 in a 25, through tight curves. He lost control and hit a telephone pole on the passenger side, entrapping his brother. It was a miracle his little brother wasn't killed, as the door was mashed down onto his legs, and reached all the way over to the steering wheel. If he hadn't been riding back and low, it would have killed him most likely. Needless to say the car was totalled.

I talked with the boys father at the hospital, where I cited the driver, and at the time he seemed concerned, but not even a year later I stopped the same teenager again for speeding again, in a congested area. He was driving another Acura Legend sedan. I guess his father wasn't as concerned as yours.

I could go on, but I'll just say I have seen way too many young ppl die, or others because of them, because they didn't realize the consequences of their actions.

I think its refreshing to know that their are still parents out there who care enough to do something before its too late.

I agree...plus its always hard to get through strange stories like this without knowing the issued from both sides, not saying I don't believe him. The whole cop story still confuses me...

Regardless...your sitaution just plain sucks...sorry man...live and learn though...maybe it would have been better to slam on your brakes and hope for the best.
and again it's reasons like that why people hate cops, abuse of power and not using their discretion. and also not to sound harsh but his parents went WAYY over board that doesn't teach him anything and there is no reason why he should have to lose something he worked so hard for. i dont think this situation could have been handled any worse.

all kids are different, I know when I was younger sending me to my room didnt teach me anything, it was when I had things I liked taken away from me.
We dont know the whole story so we cant really pass judgement on the parents because were only hearing his side.

that is true but selling his car and making him quit his job, that's very very harsh. i just don't think it will teach him anything except how to be very very bitter and he will probably have a disdain for law enforcement for the next several years.

Oh I agree but like I said we dont know if this is what actually happened or what happened up to this situation, this may have been the last straw in alot of problems, like I said, we just dont know, btw this story has alot of holes, but the only reason I could think of the point is, that something went bad on the car so now he's trying to sell it, other then that he probably did something F*d up and his parents took the car away

We really don't know what else he had done before this. I'm sure this can't be the only reason they are getting rid of the car. It was probably just the icing on the cake.

Fishy very very fishy. Maybe he wants people to feel sorry for him and buy his car. And nothing really happened. this guy on the atimas.net said that his twin brother who is the member of the net DIED so he wouldnt have to pay the money for a body kit he sold. people would do anything for money.

Why don't you learn how to drive properly first before driving ANY car (much less a Supra TT or Camaro SS), because it seems as though you have already missed a few lessons.

If your parents are taking your car away, I say it's a good thing, because you'll probably end up killing yourself, and god forbid possibly others, before you even reach 18. And guess what. Once your car is gone, you won't need the job that you had to put mods on it to make it even FASTER, so that you can drive it even MORE irresponsibly!

he said he lost it because of working late on a school night. that could be because of his parents taking it away or is a cop pulled him over for curfew. some states are like that.

He's right, though. There are plenty of parents that do **** like that. A friend of mine was kicked out of his house for a week and his mother told him she didn't care if he lived or died for the stupidest reason:

he installed a pop-charger on his 2k2 altima 2.5 and a few months later he had an MAF failure. instead of waiting one day for him to put the stock intake back on and take it to the dealer even thought he told them that's what he needed to do they took it in. The dealer refused warranty service and my friend had to pay all repairs out of pocket. when he told his parents it was a stupid thing to do he got yelled at for a few hours and booted from the house for a week. no car, no food and no roof over his head. he stayed with a friend for a week until his parents told him to come back. to this day he hasn't gotten an apology or even an admission of guilt.

there are a lot of ****ed up reactionary hotheaded people out there. some are parents.

While I don't doubt that there are parents that would do something like this, it does seem strange that this small of an incident would cause such large consequences. I highly doubt this was set up by his parents though as I know most people don't goto the same place at the same time for lunch everyday, so setting this up would have taken a lot of coordinating on his parents part. The only thing that bothers me about this story is that he wrote the Ebay auction. . . I know that if it were me, I would refuse to do that if my parents did this to me. If they are gonna sell it from under me, they better damn well do it themselves. Anyway, I'm sorry to hear about your prediciment. . . I hope you can get another car in a reasonable amount of time.

yes his story is fishy, but there are parents out there who are like that. Well I'm not sure if my dad is, but he bought my car for me about a yr ago. 2k1 Auto Gxe. He always threatens to sell my car and im not sure if he is going to or not because my dad is pretty damn stubborn and I really believe him when he says he will sell it. But i understand considering Ive only had the car for a yr and ive been in one big accident and a 90mph speeding ticket and a fixit tint ticket. If i were my dad id be ****ed as He!! too. After thinking about it i should be damned skippy that i STILL have my car for the time being. I just hope that when the insurance bill comes in for that ticket he doesnt sell my car. *knocks on wood* if he sells it then its

Ya know, i've been thinking....If his parents are selling the car, why did he post it on ebay. Better yet, why did he make it sound so nice on ebay??? I would have told them to sell it themselves opposed to helping them sell it.

Definitely not a loser, man! Not many 16-yr olds have saved up enough money to buy their own car, or have the work ethic required to reach such a goal. You should be very proud of yourself.

If it went down like you said, then I'd say you're definitely getting the shaft. (If however, you've demonstrated a pattern of driving wrecklessly that led up to these events, then that's another story). I suspect the car wasn't in fact sold when your dad claimed it to be, but that he intended to take it somewhere (out of your posession - for safekeeping) until it could be sold. Basically, he wanted to crush your spirits with that announcement, which he obviously succeeded in doing. This is unusually cruel, imo. Further, to forbid you from holding a job goes against every lesson of self-reliance and responsibility that any "responsible" parent should be teaching their kids.

Your parents, instead of praising your commitment and hard work in holding down a job, and respecting your achievement of buying your own car at such a young age, have chosen to punish you for this small building block of economic independence you've worked so hard for.

Sounds like you live in a very controlling environment - do the best you can to make peace, but I have a feeling you'll find this to be a pivotal life-event that will galvanize you; give you the extra fire inside to accomplish even your most seemingly unattainable goals.

No, my friend - you are no loser. You've demonstrated more character than many people twice your age. That will take you MILES.

Good luck.
