A local used car dealer that sells nicer high end cars wouldn’t let me test drive a car until I sat down and negotiated a purchase price BEFORE I drove it. I pulled up in a BMW and was looking at a $55k used car. I couldn’t believe that is their policy. I said why do I want to negotiate a price on a car I’m not even sure I would want to buy unless I enjoyed the driving experience. The owner even called me after I left a negative review. Places are nuts
@@DeanBKK If you are actually serious and they do a little financial snooping they would let you test drive...if after that they didn't let you, they are just crooks
@DeanBKK I literally did that when I bought my zl1. I told him what I wanted to buy and test drive. I got to test drive 3 other zl1s before I ended up buying mine. So yes they do let you test drive sports cars.
It’s a modded car, it probably has around 600whp horspower, that check engine line if from lower downpipes without an o2 sensor. Literally does nothing for the performance of the car. That’s the most fun that guy is going to have.
everything is effed up when you hear only one side of the story-and the story is spun by an attorney. also, he has to be one of the most foolish buyers out there. i could see dropping $5k in a rush for basic transportation . but this “student dreamer” bought a used $57k sports car, in what sounds like the blink of an eye.

The huge red flag here was that the dealer didn't let him test drive the car. If a dealer doesn't let me test drive a car there is no way in hell I will be buying the car.
Because the car was modified and I'm sure it had a shit ton of problems that would have been discovered upon driving it. I wouldn't be surprised if the tune was also incorrect for the build lol
Most dealers won’t let you test drive fast cars. Try to hop in a new hellcat NOPE not happenin. In reality, though the car is a clear track duty car. Like others I do the same, buy a new track car, beat the shit outta it and sell before warranty is up to get the dolla dolla bills, I don’t care about the next guy lol ain’t my problem your buyin my hot turd.

@thelactationstation2379 Don't matter. If they won't let me test drive the car, the deal ain't happening. Or the 2nd option. If they don't let my mechanic check the car out before I buy it, the deal ain't happening.
Let me tell you, I worked at a dealership for a while, and the salesmen LOOOOOOVE Latino immigrants because they believe they can get over on them pretty easily. Don't be a mark, assume that any car salesman is a crook, because 99% of them actually are. You think they're bad, no, they're actually WORSE than you think. Do not trust those people.
That’s exactly what happened here. This dude is a total idiot!! An 800 dollar a month car note after a six thousand dollar down payment. He counts text drive it and the check engine light is on. That’s so much money wasted in a car. He could of bought a car with the down payment and saved the rest for a house, education, or emergency. You can tell he’s terrible with money.
@@dbdnrbdb probably, not the best way to approach this problem. I think the big takeaway from this story is to not make the same mistakes. Spend more time looking and researching before you buy. The man in the story doesn’t seem very intelligent or savvy with money. However, he was gracious enough to let us learn from his mistake. He made a bad decision with that deal and got smoked on it.
Buying it without an inspection was another. I've bought a few cars w/o getting inspections and I regretted it, even though they were pretty cheap @ $1700 and $3700.
This is the type of guy literally living paycheck to paycheck. Just cause you can, doesn't mean you should. I know some people that make well over six-figures and even they can't justify financially getting a Supra right now
@@JJmccarthy69i get it but you see lots of middle class and up have monthly car payments $700+ it's actually an average monthly payment right now. And lots of them have emergency fund roth ira and index fund squared away, even with $6K downpayment and good credit in today's market you’ll still get high interest rate especially on Supra. So don't judge book by its cover. In addition, even rich people don't pay cash for a car right away, why, because it's depreciating asset. When you pay cash for supra for example you drive of the lot, you already lost 10-15% of that money so it's not worth paying cash unless you're doing 20% downpayment
My advice don't buy another one. Save your money. Last thing you need is a $700 car payment. Buy a cheap car cash and save/ invest your money. Then buy one later for cash for half the price after they depreciate.
I just checked and the brand new top version of the Supra is about 60 thousand. He knew he was buying a modified Supra and is just playing dumb now because of buyers remorse. Probably found out it's going to cost him a few thousand to get his car to pass the states emissions and safety test.
A used car salesman ripped off a girlfriend of mine once. Sold her a car and the power steering was leaking, he basically said too bad it is your car now. A couple of years later I read that someone came into his used car dealership and he was shot and killed. I guess he was still ripping people off up until that happened.

looks like there were aftermarket parts installed. some shady dealerships will try and justify a higher price tag due to the presence of said aftermarket parts, when in reality they should detract from the car's value.
@@kelly00000111111exactly, an ACTUAL dealership wouldn’t even accept the car with highly moddified parts or they'll even lower the value with the mods on
Look at supras they’re super hard to find and most used prices are above new. It’s the same for a number of cars right now to include the Supra, C8 corvette, Audi RS models, and quite a few others. It’s cheaper to buy new but you’ll also be on a waitlist for 12+ months.
I’m a car guy, and from the looks of it, the engine bay has some mods. The “emissions issue” that they are talking about is probably just a simple cat delete, and aftermarket exhaust system, which causes a benign check engine light. Doesn’t do any harm drivability or car health wise, it’s just a bit modified is all.
Agreed. I have a Supra and I can guarantee it's 100% because of a catless downpipe. Nothing is wrong with the engine, it's just the car saying it's detecting off nominal reading on the downpipe's O2 sensor, since it has no Cat. I've been running catless for over 10,000 miles with a CEL and the car has 0 problems.
@@arsenyrazhkov4559 When I was looking for my first car I was taking a car out for a test drive, it didn't feel quite right. I had my back back with me and the dealer was trying to play the "I need this car to get to school" and his face dropped when I pulled out an OBD 2 scan tool, but not just small cheap one, I barrowed the kind you see at dealerships from a friend, and found deleted codes. I don't remember exactly what the codes where but I remember most of them being for sensors not responding.
@arsenyrazhkov4559 mate. You cannot register a car with a CEL in California and quite a few other states. You have to pass smog before registering it and if the cel. Is on its an instant fail. No modified exhausts at all either
Car guy here....The issues sound very much fixable but they shouldnt have sold him the car in that condition. Especially at that price tag. My guess with that check engine light and "altered emissions" is a catalytic convertor delete and an ECU tune thats different from stock.
Yup, probably had a couple of previous owners who were "tuners'" who made alterations so they could participate in street racing and street closure shenanigans.
Right, there's sensor that read catalytic converter temperature. I believe you can remove that with bimmercode? Other than, it's better improve performance and sound lol
This is so dumb. I owned this car and can tell it was tuned, has catless headers and after market exaust lmfao. Dude needs to do his research on a platform before handing his money over. Doesn’t really sound like it was a dream and he is more of a fanboy. The check engine light is because of the catless downpipe and it is throwing a code that is safe to ignore. THE CAR IS FINE.
Yep, I have a 23 Supra with a catless downpipe and it also has a CEL. Someone should reach out to this guy and have him do a code scan through his OBD port - if it's something like P0420 then the only thing he needs to worry about is passing emissions since it looks like he's in CA. At 1:55 I spotted an AMS engine cover, Blitz strut bar, carbon radiator plate, dress up bolts, and custom caps so it's likely the previous owner swapped out the downpipe since it's one of the first bolt ons you can do for immediate power.
Was going to spend $57,000 on a car that he didn’t test drive . He got played . This happens every day at all of those ratty little used car dealerships. Also never buy a used sports car if it is modified. It means that the last owner possibly abused it .
I went in to by a G35 when they first came out. Had the color and style I wanted. Salesperson grabbed keys to a lease return that just came in when I did. Vehicle had flat tire, was super dirty, and something was wrong with the clutch. Oh yeah and we had to take it to go get gas because it was way passed E! He said you ready to buy. I said hold up, I said I want to buy a G35 but not that G35! He said you just gonna come into my dealership and joy ride in my $50k car. I said man the g35 start at $35k brand new (back then price).

Don’t let this distract you from the fact that Hector is going to be running three Honda civics with spoon engines, and on top of that, he just went into Harry’s and bought three t66 turbos with nos, and a motec exhaust system.
I'm retired from a 30 year career in the car business. I worked for three quality dealers, and the rule was always that the customer had to drive the car first before signing paperwork - it didn't matter if the car was an exotic or a classic or a cash car. I did meet customers with previous bad car buying stories, and I always wondered why they went ahead and bought cars from people who were not treating them right. The problem with sellers like this is they often obfuscate their business behind shells and hard to trace ownership - they know they will likely get sued at some time. Best wishes Hector, I hope your attorney can get the dealer to unwind the transaction - I wish that California was more strict in their dealer licensing. The people who did this to Hector probably have a history of such deals, but somehow manage to keep their dealer license.
@@jhowardsupporter How did that work - did the three owners do a time share on the car? Your friend chose to continue working for a coke snorting manager of a used car dealer.

When a used car sales dude prohibits a prospective customer from test-driving the car, that should've immediately raised red flags and sounded alarm bells. It's abundantly clear that he didn't want to risk the "Check Engine" light coming on during the test-drive (with Hector driving) and risk losing the sale. Nothing says "grease ball used car salesman" louder than this scenario!
He's a DACA student. He's not even a citizen. Is he legal to drive? Would the dealer's insurance cover them in an accident? Oh wait, California gives licenses to anyone that breaks in.
The shady used dealership seller was doing that ECU trick, cleared all the codes, maybe pulled a pin out and whatever else, where u can’t drive over like 40 mph, and other things or else it’ll trigger the CEL
I went with my friend last year to see a Subaru Wagon for sale. My friend was eager to buy such a car. Subarus are slightly different for me. So we go and first thing the older gentleman said was “mind if I drive” We said sure. So he took us for a ride and said he has a shop and is a mechanic. Then we get back to the house I drop on the floor and look under the car. I wasn’t even buying the car my friend was. But I said “no we don’t want it thank you” when we got back to the car I told my friend about the huge oil mess under the car. The car had been altered.

Stories like these remind us of the importance of conducting thorough research and due diligence when buying used cars. It's essential for dealers to prioritize transparency and customer satisfaction. Thank you, CBS 8 San Diego, for bringing attention to this matter.
One doesn't need to do "thorough research" to know to walk away from any deal when the dealer won't let you test drive a car you are contemplating buying...
Don't be afraid to be rude to slash prices as much as you want in dealerships, if you can't get the price you want, walk away, you got nothing to lose and everything to gain as a customer.

You can cancel the sale before you leave the car lot. Once you drive off the lot you lose that option. In California you add a $500 to your contract that allows you a few days to bring the car back for any reason and cancel the sale. Buyer made a lot mistakes.
What is this guy thinking 700/month + insurance is like 900+/month when he only had 6k to put down he should have just got a used civic and saved money instead of drowning in debt … that car is going to put him underwater
poor fitting front bumper and fender gaps and aftermarket parts under the hood. Instant red flags. Even if you can't drive a car, have it run and inspect under the hood, the gauges, etc. Always ask to have it inspected first too if you dont have the knowledge.

2014 Honda Civic with 90k miles is pretty nice, that ain't really no struggle if you ask me. My homeboy recently bought a 1988 Toyota Camry with like 234k miles... straight bucket
700 a month!?!?!?!?!?! What in the world. Noooooooo. If there's one thing people need to work on, it's finances and instant gratification. If you don't have the cash to buy it, you can't afford it.
My sisters brand new car was hit by a truck it caused 8k$ in damages, we took it to get repaired at our dealership we bought the vehicle from. The truck driver’s insurance paid for repairs. 5 years later I checked the car fax records for the car, no mention of major accident…. I don’t trust car fax at all.
I had almost $10k in rear end damage on a car. It was repaired by a body shop owned by a dealer. The Carfax simply listed the date the repairs were completed, the mileage, and "vehicle serviced." There is ZERO obligation for any body shop or mechanic to report accurate information to Carfax, or even report at all. In fact it's in the best interest of dealer-affiliated body shops to NOT report accident damage, as it will only harm the sale price or result in an otherwise good late model car being sent to auction if the car later ends up on their lot.
Let me get this straight…… Hector went and bought a Supra with TWO spoilers, modified red Supra Emblem, Carbon fiber engine cover with AMS (tuning company known to sell big power turbo kits) and another tuning company stickers and more mods in the engine, on a car that uses a BMW engine (BMWs are known for their issues), and Hector did not see any of this? Buddy had it coming to him. Do not buy on emotion, do not buy a model car if you’re not ready for modded/race car problems. 100% his fault

Also don't forget the carfax, or run the vin if a carfax isn't possible.

Always take it to a mechanic of your choosing before and look at their ob2 for codes (buy an ob2 reader) … make sure it shifts good, look under the radiator/oil cap to see if there is sludge; steer the steering wheel all the way to the right and left and hold it for a few seconds to see if it makes a whine noise; listen to the engine to see if it sounds weird or not… look at the exhaust smoke, if it’s super white or blue and billowing out … if anything is wrong or they don’t let you take it to a mechanic you immediately WALK, no haggling, WALK, on to the next car…. Also, make sure it has a clean car fax and that the odometer miles on the car match with the cars interior/exterior “beauty”… be safe. This is the best advice on buying a new car you’ll probably get.

I like Hector. He was honest about the mistakes he made. And then he did two smart things he learned from his mistake, and then he tried to help others avoid it. It's not color, or money that makes you a good person. It's being a well-rounded person like Hector that makes a good society.

Bought my 2nd gen eclipse gsx 5 speed for only 4k and they're selling for 20-40k now. Nobody wanted it because half the interior needed to be replaced and needed a paint job and minor body work (never been in an accident and a clean title). Only put in 3k into the car and it looks like it would look brand new off the lot besides inside the engine bay where I have a lot of mods like 16g turbo, greddy bov vented to the atmosphere, etc. Also zero rust because it's lived in California it's whole life.

He is a "DACA student" and his dad owns a business? Who brought him into my country? Also buying a nearly $60k car without you doing the test drive is behind gullible. He has only himself to blame and should lose this case. Plus he needs to go back to his country and apply to return legally.
Man, live and learn. And stay away from those small dealers. They buy auction vehicles that are wrecked, the accident hasn't shown up on Carfax report yet, fix the body work as cheaply as possible, and leave frame\structure damage hidden. Repaint it and turn around and sell a vehicle that was either wrecked badly, stolen, or flooded for cost just cheap enough to get inquiries about it but not red flagged. I know so many people that also do this at their homes. They sell a dozen cars a year and act like they are the owner. But title is always from another state.

If a dealership wont let you test drive a vehicle, walk away immediately.
A local used car dealer that sells nicer high end cars wouldn’t let me test drive a car until I sat down and negotiated a purchase price BEFORE I drove it. I pulled up in a BMW and was looking at a $55k used car. I couldn’t believe that is their policy. I said why do I want to negotiate a price on a car I’m not even sure I would want to buy unless I enjoyed the driving experience. The owner even called me after I left a negative review. Places are nuts
@@DeanBKK If you are actually serious and they do a little financial snooping they would let you test drive...if after that they didn't let you, they are just crooks
@DeanBKK I literally did that when I bought my zl1. I told him what I wanted to buy and test drive. I got to test drive 3 other zl1s before I ended up buying mine. So yes they do let you test drive sports cars.

I dunno. What customer buys a car WITHOUT test driving it themselves?? 🤦🏼♂️
It’s a modded car, it probably has around 600whp horspower, that check engine line if from lower downpipes without an o2 sensor. Literally does nothing for the performance of the car. That’s the most fun that guy is going to have.

Dude should sue if he needs to, especially for the check engine light and if dealership knew it was in an accident.
everything is effed up when you hear only one side of the story-and the story is spun by an attorney. also, he has to be one of the most foolish buyers out there. i could see dropping $5k in a rush for basic transportation . but this “student dreamer” bought a used $57k sports car, in what sounds like the blink of an eye.
He learned a valuable lesson while he's young. This will save him from many problems for the rest of his life.
He didn't learn the lesson that it's dumb to borrow $50K to buy a car at age 22.

Because the car was modified and I'm sure it had a shit ton of problems that would have been discovered upon driving it. I wouldn't be surprised if the tune was also incorrect for the build lol

Let me tell you, I worked at a dealership for a while, and the salesmen LOOOOOOVE Latino immigrants because they believe they can get over on them pretty easily. Don't be a mark, assume that any car salesman is a crook, because 99% of them actually are. You think they're bad, no, they're actually WORSE than you think. Do not trust those people.
That’s exactly what happened here. This dude is a total idiot!! An 800 dollar a month car note after a six thousand dollar down payment. He counts text drive it and the check engine light is on. That’s so much money wasted in a car. He could of bought a car with the down payment and saved the rest for a house, education, or emergency. You can tell he’s terrible with money.

I’m a car guy, and from the looks of it, the engine bay has some mods. The “emissions issue” that they are talking about is probably just a simple cat delete, and aftermarket exhaust system, which causes a benign check engine light. Doesn’t do any harm drivability or car health wise, it’s just a bit modified is all.
Agreed. I have a Supra and I can guarantee it's 100% because of a catless downpipe. Nothing is wrong with the engine, it's just the car saying it's detecting off nominal reading on the downpipe's O2 sensor, since it has no Cat. I've been running catless for over 10,000 miles with a CEL and the car has 0 problems.

@@arsenyrazhkov4559 When I was looking for my first car I was taking a car out for a test drive, it didn't feel quite right.

I don't remember exactly what the codes where but I remember most of them being for sensors not responding.
@arsenyrazhkov4559 mate. You cannot register a car with a CEL in California and quite a few other states. You have to pass smog before registering it and if the cel. Is on its an instant fail. No modified exhausts at all either
That car looks so abused for 57k. Catless downpipe, probably fake M Carbon Fiber fake mirror caps from Ebay. This car was such an easy pass.
6k plus a trade in gets him 700month payment?? Had no business buying that car
Car guy here....The issues sound very much fixable but they shouldnt have sold him the car in that condition. Especially at that price tag. My guess with that check engine light and "altered emissions" is a catalytic convertor delete and an ECU tune thats different from stock.
sounds about right
Yup, probably had a couple of previous owners who were "tuners'" who made alterations so they could participate in street racing and street closure shenanigans.
Right, there's sensor that read catalytic converter temperature. I believe you can remove that with bimmercode? Other than, it's better improve performance and sound lol
This is so dumb. I owned this car and can tell it was tuned, has catless headers and after market exaust lmfao. Dude needs to do his research on a platform before handing his money over. Doesn’t really sound like it was a dream and he is more of a fanboy.
The check engine light is because of the catless downpipe and it is throwing a code that is safe to ignore.
THE CAR IS FINE.
Yep, I have a 23 Supra with a catless downpipe and it also has a CEL. Someone should reach out to this guy and have him do a code scan through his OBD port - if it's something like P0420 then the only thing he needs to worry about is passing emissions since it looks like he's in CA. At 1:55 I spotted an AMS engine cover, Blitz strut bar, carbon radiator plate, dress up bolts, and custom caps so it's likely the previous owner swapped out the downpipe since it's one of the first bolt ons you can do for immediate power.
Why not tell us what dealership did this?
Probably is sue right now.

Don’t let this distract you from the fact that Hector is going to be running three Honda civics with spoon engines, and on top of that, he just went into Harry’s and bought three t66 turbos with nos, and a motec exhaust system.
I'm retired from a 30 year career in the car business. I worked for three quality dealers, and the rule was always that the customer had to drive the car first before signing paperwork - it didn't matter if the car was an exotic or a classic or a cash car. I did meet customers with previous bad car buying stories, and I always wondered why they went ahead and bought cars from people who were not treating them right. The problem with sellers like this is they often obfuscate their business behind shells and hard to trace ownership - they know they will likely get sued at some time. Best wishes Hector, I hope your attorney can get the dealer to unwind the transaction - I wish that California was more strict in their dealer licensing. The people who did this to Hector probably have a history of such deals, but somehow manage to keep their dealer license.

When a used car sales dude prohibits a prospective customer from test-driving the car, that should've immediately raised red flags and sounded alarm bells.

He's a DACA student. He's not even a citizen. Is he legal to drive? Would the dealer's insurance cover them in an accident?

My sisters brand new car was hit by a truck it caused 8k$ in damages, we took it to get repaired at our dealership we bought the vehicle from. The truck driver’s insurance paid for repairs. 5 years later I checked the car fax records for the car, no mention of major accident….
I don’t trust car fax at all.
I had almost $10k in rear end damage on a car. It was repaired by a body shop owned by a dealer. The Carfax simply listed the date the repairs were completed, the mileage, and "vehicle serviced." There is ZERO obligation for any body shop or mechanic to report accurate information to Carfax, or even report at all. In fact it's in the best interest of dealer-affiliated body shops to NOT report accident damage, as it will only harm the sale price or result in an otherwise good late model car being sent to auction if the car later ends up on their lot.
It's only there to give the allusion the car has been taken care of. However I will say it did show a car I was looking at had an odometer roll back.
Let me get this straight…… Hector went and bought a Supra with TWO spoilers, modified red Supra Emblem, Carbon fiber engine cover with AMS (tuning company known to sell big power turbo kits) and another tuning company stickers and more mods in the engine, on a car that uses a BMW engine (BMWs are known for their issues), and Hector did not see any of this? Buddy had it coming to him. Do not buy on emotion, do not buy a model car if you’re not ready for modded/race car problems. 100% his fault
Well supras are known for being really modded engines. Maybe he had no clue that the new supra is a garbage
garuntee he bought it because of the brand name "supra" and a couple videos of a 1000hp modified mk4 on youtube lol.
When I had my stock 21 supra it had issues and I was the first owner. This car will have typical BMW electrical issues and reliability.
He's also a DACA student collecting financial assistance and decided, purchasing a 57k used and abused supra was a good idea. Meanwhile he's voting for student loan forgiveness and playing the victim card
57 thousand, man you got robbed twice
i used to work for Toyota and most of the tech told me to stay away from Supra
Just get a used BMW Z4 and put on Toyota badges. Cheaper and you won't have to go $57,000 in debt.
Lmao. And I use to run a billion dollar hotel agency. B58 is sought out to be one of the greatest engines made.
I’m sorry for this guy’s treatment by the dealer, but, come on….. you chose to purchase a $57,000 car . that was your first mistake that got the snowball going that eventually plowed into you.
The used car stealership saw him from a mile away.
“ Youth is wasted on the young..”
Amen.
are you mad that someone wanted a nicer car than yours?
@@trollashnikovavtomat
Def Nicer than what I drove at 22.
But no , why should I be mad? Strange-ass thing to say . I’m no longer young , nor limited to one car.
@@pushslice I get the idea is not to go above the means, but who's to say this guy went above his means price wise? 57K is a lot, but think about it, someone working minimum wage can come close if they choose to crack out on some over time. Keep in mind this guy was working restaurant (tips) and his dad's construction. Also, the age and car experience varies. I had more expensive cars (in comparison to myself) as I grew older, but the most fun in the cars was when I was late teens- early twenties. I'm pretty sure I can try out new experiences that best my younger ones, but it would be a lie to say if I did the same thing when I was younger, it wouldn't feel better.
@@DetPerscI understand getting a cool car in your youth. I’m 23 and got a gr86 last year. But spending $57k on a car while working at a restaurant? That’s insanity.
Hector should have got 3 Honda Civics with spoon engines. On top of that he should have ordered 3 T66 turbos, with NOS, and a Motec system exhaust.
lmao
🇲🇽
Don't worry Hector.
Some day you're gonna get rid of the Supra and be running 3 Honda Civics with Spoon engines and on top of that you're gonna go into Harry's and order yourself three T66 ball bearing turbos with NOS and to end it all off a Motec exhaust system...
Ain’t that the truth 🫡 I scrolled way too far for this comment.
Bro it probably has no catalytic converter, you just have to get it tuned and the engine light would go away 😂
$700 a month payment?? Dude needs a check brain light.
700 a month isn't bad . Common contact terms are 60 and 72 months. 700 x 60 = 42,000
Not including finance charges and intrest . 42k doesn't get you anything super nice now a days. Just a regular car
@@TheEmmanuel426 the last two cars I bought were $15k or less and under 40k miles. To each their own though I guess
When I first expressed interest in my Supra, the agent handed me the key without even taking any of my info. Drove it on the freeway, in the streets, and did some hard braking and accelerations. Took it back to the dealership, and that is when we started talking. Nowadays, we should be hella skeptical about everything, especially a dealer who doesn't want you to take it for a spin.
Ever heard of a break in period? Im glad you purchased the one you test drove so no one has to deal with the O-Rings later in life
That Lawyer, in cheap suit, is dreaming -- if the dealership takes the car back, and return all the money, this dude would have had a rent-free Supra for months...
That statement alone shows the Lawyer is an idiot..
Biggest bruh moment
$57K for used car? That's a lot of money. Last used car I bought was a 2004 Corolla for $2K. That was 5 years ago. It runs flawlessly.

i bought a truck with 80k miles for $24,000 and found out the dealer rolled back the miles from 150k to 80k miles. where's my news story? ha
Sorry but this guy has no business buying a 57k car and taking on a 700 car payment.
He’s a decent earner but a horrible spender.
He should save money and partner in with others and buy a house. Maybe go in with his mom and dad.
A Latino family bought my former home. Husband and wife and 3 adult sons. All of them on the loan. That’s family and trust and being smart.
This was back in 2001/2002. Heard they sold it for a good profit then they all had enough to go their separate ways and buy their own homes.
unless the car is going up in value like the old supras

this happened to me and my dad one time, we were buying a BMW 550i that appeared to be clean, but upon 3 days of ownership the car instantly had a check engine light and started leaking oil on the first day
not to mention when buying the car the dealer was unusually friendly about it
just shows how scummy dealers can truly be
You are looking to buy a car that is rated 1.5 stars out of 5. The only thing on the planet that can help you is when buying it new you will have a warranty. That was your mistake. BMW = check engine light. BMW = Oil leak. List goes on. You could have bought a Model 3 Tesla for less money and never need to pop the hood it's entire life.
Don't buy used BMW's they are unreliable break down and expensive. If you bought a Lexus you would have NO issues. th-cam.com/video/-1g7nWU1Cig/w-d-xo.html
On a Toyota I'd freak out but on a BMW that is not unusual at all.
His dream was to get a Toyota? That was his first mistake...
Why would you pay 57 grand for that??!!!
Because it's his money
Because stupid.
It's a Supra. Msrp is around that price. He's also a car guy and it's his dream car.
That's what they go for, he should have just went to Toyota and bought a new one.
@@AJayDriveshe's a car guy??? 😂😂😂😂😂
My father and I have been in the car business for 30 years, when you go look at a car, crank it up an let it run for 15 mins, if you see any leaks, or hear any sounds from the engine bay, ask the dealer to hold it for you untill you can make a appointment for a shop to go through it. Also don't forget the carfax, or run the vin if a carfax isn't possible.
this totally this. Also if you're going to do a payment plan, set it up so that you aren't paying something egregious like $700 a month. This kid didn't seem to have much of a grasp on how to be fiscally responsible. You think he had like 60k to his name when he bought the Supra, or more?
700 dollar a month care note? At least he has his priorities straight
700 month is a lot money for used car ?
A DACA recipient , spending this much ? Whoaaa that's really great priorities.

@@erwinsm10 Guess his "immigrant parents" didn't teach him how to save money and focus on getting a better job before enslaving himself for a luxury item he can't afford. And DACA....why we the taxpayers are paying for his school so he can throw the money away like this?
@@erwinsm10what else is he supposed to do? He works hard for it. His money, his rights.
He wanted a supra, yet bought a bmw 😂😂
It has AutoZone lug nuts just at a glance, seems like he's more worried about his image with those earrings rather than the meat and bones of how a car is. "Emotions" 😂
Probably why he had the camera angle from his right side so you couldn't readily see that ridiculous dangling crucifix earring on his left ear. LOL! 🤣😂
Fukk his image hes already a dum@zz 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Even if the supra is gold plated and diamond studded, I wont pay $57K for a used one.
They MSRP at 44k. Crazy up charge.
@@serrahighsfinest The fact that he was still interested let them know he'd be easy to scam. 😂
@@serrahighsfinest 44K is for the 4 cylinder model. The 6 cylinder starts at 53K for the base version. The one in the video has a starting msrp of 57k new.
It doesn’t look very comfortable. It’s so low to the ground.
@@archinichGoogle it again buddy.
I feel so bad for Hector. 🙁 Saving and working hard for so long and this happens. I have been looking at cars and now I'm really scared.
Take a lesson from him. Purchase a vehicle new or if you’re unable to purchase outright, continue to save to do so or put a large potion on down payment down and have the security of knowing that you’re owner number 1 and anything that malfunctioned that it’ll be under warranty.
Always take it to a mechanic of your choosing before and look at their ob2 for codes (buy an ob2 reader) … make sure it shifts good, look under the radiator/oil cap to see if there is sludge; steer the steering wheel all the way to the right and left and hold it for a few seconds to see if it makes a whine noise; listen to the engine to see if it sounds weird or not… look at the exhaust smoke, if it’s super white or blue and billowing out … if anything is wrong or they don’t let you take it to a mechanic you immediately WALK, no haggling, WALK, on to the next car…. Also, make sure it has a clean car fax and that the odometer miles on the car match with the cars interior/exterior “beauty”… be safe. This is the best advice on buying a new car you’ll probably get.
i don't feel bad for him at all.
he works at a restaurant and he bought a car he clearly couldn't even afford at the first place.
he isn't american
he is clearly low iq
Hector works at a restaurant barely making more than minimum wage but he signs up for a $64k loan. Why?
Just go to a dealer and be prepared with at least a 2,000 down payment

Blows my mind that someone will buy a $57K car without even being able to test drive it, much less by a car of that value given his occupation. This kid has a lot to learn.
Rooting for you Hector. Don’t let this crush you. Appreciate you telling your story.
He was Supra excited 😂
if you're needed to fiance to buy a USED $57k vehicle then you really don't have the purchasing power you think you have.
I like Hector. He was honest about the mistakes he made. And then he did two smart things he learned from his mistake, and then he tried to help others avoid it. It's not color, or money that makes you a good person. It's being a well-rounded person like Hector that makes a good society.
fr dude
you nver met Hector nor know absolutely nothing about him so how do you "like" him? Are you really that easily influenced by one-sided stories?
He’s part of DACA. That’s a class of person who was brought here by undocumented parents…Yet he says his dad owns a welding company? He works at a restaurant. But can afford 700.00 a month car note…. HES driving the same car he wants to turn back in. HIS OWN WORDS. “. The CHECK ENGINE Light came on before he left the dealership…..YET. HE LEFT THE DEALERSHIP.. AND STILL DRIVING THE. CAR
@@slowery43 you're blind. You don't always need the other side of the story to see the obvious.
He's on government assistance buying 57k used car. His parent are immigrants collecting food stamps while owning a welding company. The dealer told him about the after market mods and sold the car as is.
When Hector realized the car was abused by the previous owner and the current mods wouldn't pass smog he played the victim card. The dealer didn't let him test drive it becuase they were not legal modification but instead of letting the dealer remove everything he took the risk cuz he didn't wanna build a race car he wanted to buy one already built. Don't feel bad for this clown. He could have went to buy a little civic or Nissan versa for a third of the price, zero mile reliable car
This is the same type of situation that happened to my cousin who bought a used 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross (SUV) AWD XLE for $47,000 (Monthly Payment of $685.00) instead of a new one at msrp $32,000. He later finds out there was physical damage on the front fender, sloppy touch up paint job by the driver door and a couple dings for a 7,000 miles car. (P.S he bought it certified at a Toyota dealership.)
Some people just ????
why would you spend that much on a second hand Toyota Corolla???
A corolla for 47k damn lol
For $47k I would have bought a brand new Tesla Model Y or 3 Performance and get back $9k incentives for a total of $40k after all the credit.
Almost 50K for a Corolla .. that’s where he went wrong from the get go 😢
Dude got swindled on a reskinned Z4. I hope he gets his money back.
After he signed the papers and went to the car…he then noticed a check engine light on????…if he didn’t drive off…I would’ve went back in there and said the deal is off!!!!…but then again. I wouldn’t have paid 57k for a used Supra😂
depending on when he bought it, it’s a decent deal for a launch edition.
@@armandocardona6975a decent deal??? Bruh go to this same dealer, they're looking for dummies like you
1st mistake...buying your Dream Car used...
I bought my dream car from an auction with flood damage LOL. It's 8 years old and has 85k miles 🤷 The difference is I know how to work on them
Not a mistake if you have a set of nuts on you to work on cars and a brain so you know what to look for so you don't overpay. Bought my 2nd gen eclipse gsx 5 speed for only 4k and they're selling for 20-40k now. Nobody wanted it because half the interior needed to be replaced and needed a paint job and minor body work (never been in an accident and a clean title). Only put in 3k into the car and it looks like it would look brand new off the lot besides inside the engine bay where I have a lot of mods like 16g turbo, greddy bov vented to the atmosphere, etc. Also zero rust because it's lived in California it's whole life.
If your. Dream Car is NO Longer in Production...You have no choice. But in this case, Big Mistake.
With that said, I bought multiple Dream cars used and I don't know how to work on them besides oil changes. I do all the needed homework though.
@@passionnotparked9099 what are you a woman? What kind of man doesn't know how to work on cars?
I will take that as a Compliment, I don't work on my own cars because I don't have the time. I own over 18 cars currently and most are Dream cars accordingly as I grew up. I have 2 very good mechanics whom works on them if need be, most dont because I do my homework. I am an Auto and Insurance Broker.
pre purchase inspection, if they refuse to let you do it, walk away.
So, now Hector is basically admitting his own stupidity and warning others not to be as stupid as he was. While I appreciate it, I do agree that the dealership was more like a stealership it is pretty obvious that Hector is a big part of the problem. They say love is blind. I guess maybe this applies to things as well as people.
All he had to do is spend about $150 to get the car checked out by a mechanic if the seller refuses just move on!
Bro ur gonna give all your cash to mechanic checking all the cars you want
@bamf6603 and you're ganna end up like Hector crying about something that was preventable

“ born to immigrant parents “ . A typical network news tactic. What on earth does that have to do with anything.
I remember when I went to a dealership looking for a car and wanted to test drive drive it, salesman was extremely sketchy and said that I needed to put a $3,000 down payment before test driving it. I thank him for letting me know now to buy a car from there and left.

He is a "DACA student" and his dad owns a business? Who brought him into my country? Also buying a nearly $60k car without you doing the test drive is behind gullible. He has only himself to blame and should lose this case. Plus he needs to go back to his country and apply to return legally.
Man, live and learn. And stay away from those small dealers. They buy auction vehicles that are wrecked, the accident hasn't shown up on Carfax report yet, fix the body work as cheaply as possible, and leave frame\structure damage hidden. Repaint it and turn around and sell a vehicle that was either wrecked badly, stolen, or flooded for cost just cheap enough to get inquiries about it but not red flagged. I know so many people that also do this at their homes. They sell a dozen cars a year and act like they are the owner. But title is always from another state.
