Not to bitch at you but why would you put yourself in such a poor financial situation where you have to end up selling aftermarket exhaust to fix your car? I would assume when you need quick money to fix your car, you'd bear quite a bit of loss by selling your exhaust. Shouldn't you always have some excess cash on hand in case of some emergency?

Don't feel like you have to defend yourself, dude. It's no one's business. Don't let this discourage you from asking questions around here. For every bad apple (or two as in this case), there are 100 more who are happy to give you help.

A red flag goes up for me that someone has to sell parts off of there car to fix it.... kinda like buying a ferrari and not being able to pay for the service on it.

maybe buy a cheaper car?
WTF? I seem to remember rolling quarters, hell even pennies when I was younger for gas, beer, top romen, whores, etc.

Good God, schit happens in life and sometimes we make bad decisions that result in having to make sacrifices in the end. Pop that golden, diamond encrusted udder flowing sweet honey out of your mouth and understand that not everyone has the same privileges in life that you do.

If you're so high and mighty, what are you doing in a Honda?

Leave the kid alone.
