My one wreck that was "my fault" was me avoiding a drunkard staggering down the road at night and to avoid a manslaughter charge I swerved and went into a ditch.
I personally do not see that as being as irresponsible. I do realize that co-signing is a big deal as if I do not pay the bill, not only myself, but the co-signer will be affected as well. The only reason my parent is agreeing to co-signing is because they have went on a limb for me and bought my BMW (worth 8k at the time) and I paid them back with no late payments and no problems.

I dont care what you are.
Logically, when you own a company- the more you can do yourself, the less you have to invest in other people.
I had a CAD design, my friend was a programmer at the company, he hooked me up with that for a cheap price, and I paid for bulk machine time; which hey guess what? In Israel is pretty damn cheap.
I dont know a damn thing about CnC machines, or auto enclaves, or any of that stuff and how they work. All I care about is at the end of the day, my trucks are 100% up to the specifications that I handed them.
(Edit: If you think MY (well not mine anymore... ) company owns those my machines, then you are confused in how the industrial world works. It's called outsourcing.)
I'm sorry you find the fact you cant imagine yourself doing something like this at my age hilarious, I thought you were just being a *****; but looking back, it seems like you really just cant encompass that idea, so I just feel sad for you. Good luck in whatever, I'm not going to argue this point with every incompetent pencil pusher on the internet. You asked how I own my Z, there is your answer.

It's a little strange to go from owning a business being involved in hobby that you obviously enjoy to working at a pizza house

Take the day off and I miss a great story.
I'm with 1GR8... The story is so good its almost believable. On the fence whether or not you can talk it, bring it or both.
Facts.. Please let me know if I'm wrong.
You just got out of high school. You're what 18 maybe 19? Had a LLC? And you negotitated a overseas contract? With Israel? Buying aerospace commodities? To be used for bulk time on a CnC machine? And you have blueprints from a CAD?
So... How am I doing?
One last thing.. You traded this all in for $20k and a job at a pizza joint.
Dude... Seriously, you are selling your abilities short.

In that you are correct. And we have every right to have fun with your posts since you put them here to begin with. Enjoy the popcorn.

I don't think junior understands that we've heard this story a million times.
Junior....Can we see the LLC papers?
Oh.... Do whatever you want to your Z. It's yours. Be happy.

Interesting 1st post after being here for 7 months. It's hard to truly know the meaning of apprecating something if it was given to you, but congrats on your Z. The best way to show you appreciate it is to take care if it and not not fall into the traps of peer pressure.

Oh trust me. I have a bunch of friends who always asks me to peel out, to drift and other acts of that manner and I admit, it's very tempting but I realize that if I do that and anything goes wrong, I would be in so much trouble. Plus, gas costs too much to do so haha. Back to the point, my car is my pride and joy. I see kids in my high school parking lot neglect their cars by not washing it etc... I have received many positive comments of how clean my car is and stuff like that because I actually appreciate what I have so I treat it with much respect. Anyways, I appreciate and respect you guys comments

Bebot... Just try to be smart with the car. Hate to see another kid get into trouble with a Z. Remember... Trees and other people are innocent victims. No reason to cause harm and loose your pride and joy.
On the flipside...........Where's Junior? Or Lior, Loir, Leon, whatever. Dude... I need some advice on getting some metal CnC'd. Do you have a contact in Russia? Was thinking since you can speak it maybe you could help???

It's kinda creepy you looked me up, thats not normal behavior. And I mean I COULD call my programmer up; and ask him to set you up.
BUT you mean nothing to me, so why would I bother.
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns. Contact me personally. Otherwise, I don't take anything you say seriously.

Not that I didn't think that, simply that I don't care enough. Although i'm flattered someone out there would go to those lengths. Why would I go out of my way to prove something to someone I will never meet, and ultimately don't care about. That seems ridiculous.
On that note, google is pretty bad as far as looking up business related information. My dad is a multimillionaire entrepreneur and I bet you cant find anything on him on google...

What....you've never question someones story?? Teenagers are known to embellish. Plus, for someone who has an issue with be google'd but doesn't seem to care what people think, you don't have a problem oversharing your life.
Look junior.... You seem like a good kid. Dont bs people. Your story is quite entertaining. Fact find first. On this thread holes get punched in stories all the time.
Oh...Won't be contacting you. Trust me if I need a lesson in business or money I'll stick with my peers. You should go back to planning for prom, being a kid and enjoying your Z.

How can you own something that you are paying for? Unless the title is in your hand, you don't own chit. It is possible that your parent paid for the car and are allowing you to pay them, but that's too easy since it's so easy to skip out on a payment knowing daddy won't be showing up in the middle of the night to repo your car.
And it's kind of sad. My first post on this forum and I get bashed. I bet you wouldn't have said that to my face in person. I always flash my lights or wave to other 350 owners. What if I saw you in the parking lot with a Z and was like "hey man nice car!"? You probably would have said "hey thanks bro you too".. People are so ignorant sometimes.. >.>
Also, I might add that i'm not even allowed to touch the car modification wise. Until the title is in my hands, no mods are allowed to the car.. Car stays stock for 5 years, other than maintenance duties.. I felt it was a fair trade. Sure I could have got a shitty Honda or something, but obviously my parents felt I was mature enough to handle a nicer car such as the 350..
