TexanIdiot25 could use some of that bail out money — Sun, 06 Apr 2008 16:22:28 EDT

The thread is hilarious, and ends with the apparent Mother, Future-Mother-In-Law, and the now Ex-GF bitching it out in the end!

I read about this on their forum. Thats awesome. Ironically, but unfortunately, a guy on our own local forum had his 300C stolen not long ago.

We're trying to do the same for him, but a 300C just doesnt stand out like a Skyline.

haha throwing the horns is easy when yer missin' fingers. Is it really stealing or just not bringing back a car you had permission to drive?

Too bad that the Ironside guy is wearing a Mercedes baseball hat in the eBay ad. Didn't he read about the no-nos of car apparel? Datsun would have been OK, Nissan not.

Just to clear it up the car was being sold by a co-signment dealership. One of the funnier things about or is it aboot, is the kid paid for an expensive car wash, an oil change and a few other things while he had the car. Yea real rocket scientist...

@Cadavillac: I read the original thread, and it said he lost those fingers in an accident in a Skyline - one he apparently actually owned. So he got bit, hard, by one, then stole another, to get bitten in another way. Probably not playing with a full deck - in more ways than one, now.

tentacles — Fri, 04 Apr 2008 10:15:45 EDT

Vehicles over 15 years old are allowed to be imported to Canada. A 91 Skyline GTR is worth about $10k wholesale if isn't too rusty. They're fairly common on the streets here. Would you allow someone to test drive it? Maybe not THAT particular clown, but for a car worth less than a base Chev Aveo, it probably wasn't a huge deal.

Nice red teg there. Who the hell lets someone test drive their car without being in it??? Not me, that's for sure. Not that that makes it okay to steal, but for reals, he was just asking for it.

@rlj676: A common element among the popular kids was that, aside from being cruelest to us square-peggers, they were also the ones who got caught doing the most illegal things. Maybe not where you were, but certainly where I was.

It's weird, too: most of them were from upper-middle class families, no reason to steal. Just looking to pry a little more excitement out of life, maybe, or some attention from parents beyond just, "How's school? Good, good."

I still don't get it. I've never felt an urge to take something that wasn't mine. And being a relatively not-stupid in-duh-vidual, I realize that now more than ever, monitoring hardware is everywhere. There is no anonymity to be had. Steal a car? Sure, if I was the last man on earth, maybe. Otherwise it would feel like, well...
stealing.

At least the cops will save money on finger print ink.

so before you sell your ride, because you're going to die or someone is holding your family hostage, you have to lo-jack it, otherwise you're playing russian roulette with 5 bullets in a six shooter.
