      He clearly upset, but at least she didn’t seriously get injured or killed. It could have been way worst? No point in in crying over spilled milk, better to move forward, especially on a material item that can be replaced. I be more upset on the irresponsible act and that she could have hurt, or killed herself in the process, or even someone else, then the car. Plus he can recoup some of the lost in selling the parts and put towards a good condition one down the road.

    When I was 15 years old, two of my friends of the same age, took my one friends dads Porsche Carrera out for a joy ride when his parents went out for dinner. He then wrapped the car around a telephone poll at a high rate of speed, killing the passenger. He was being charged with vehicular homicide, but he committed suicide a couple weeks later. They were both really good kids, they just didn't realize how much danger they put themselves into.

    Welcome to fatherhood. Had a brand new riding lawnmower that I loaned to my neighbor once. He brought it back in perfect condition. A month or so later I walk out and noticed the exhaust broken off the head and everything else calliwackered, headlights, hood, grill. Went for years thinking neighbor just helped himself, hit a fence post wide open and brought it back without a word. I was a little upset but thankfully never said a word about it. Had a great time push mowing 3 acres that summer. 15 years later... daughter owns up by letting it slip.... we had the fastest mower in the area. Racing around, her and her friend rolled it off a hill, pushed it back to the house and never said a word. Glad your daughter wasn't hurt and as I've always said. If that's the worst thing you ever deal with consider yourself fortunate.

    Props to you on keeping your cool. I could never be that calm. I did some stupid things as a kid, but never "totaled my dad's rare car" stupid. Honestly, make her work around the shop to pay off what she destroyed. It'll make her realize taking care of things is important, and she can learn to respect the work you do and think twice before recklessly joyriding in a car.

      Antifreeze is easy to smell. VERY easy to smell if it's leaking like crazy. Of all the fluids you can smell on a car, warm antifreeze is easily a sign something is wrong. And you don't need to be close to the car to smell it. If she parked it in the garage, then the whole garage, Possibly the front of the house, will smell like a chemical plant.

    Damage $500 plus $150 to post office. BUT she is 36 now and never got a ticket or accident. So this valuable lesson was priceless at a very small cost.

    A few years back my step son got his license and I reluctantly gave up my extra car (2004 Focus zx3) so he could show responsibility and drive back and forth from school. About 2 months in he decided to grab some mcd's on the way home and apparently couldn't handle eating while driving as he missed a curve and jumped a ditch and ended up in the field. Luckily the corn had already been harvested so there was not property damage other than the busted focus about 100 ft into a muddy field. I was able to pull him out with my truck but there was enough serious damage to basically total the car. We didn't call it in though because his rates would have just gone through the roof so I ate the loss. When he made the call to me he was shook up and practically in tears and while I was a little upset inside I didn't drill him and at least he was fine. The vehicle can be replaced and usually its a pretty good lesson to the kid.

    Honda is actually very well built.
    Maybe getting a Prelude for you and your daughter will be a good thing.
    a) Helps her redeem herself and a constant reminder to be responsible.
    b) You to get the car you want.
    Bonus: You have a reason to save 2 of these cars from would be modders and being riced out.

    I did a DOH in my firs car, an MG Metro with iffy brakes, a dog rab out in front of me, I hit the anchors, the car slwed sideways, and O clipped the kerb, and thanks to run flat Denovo tyres, the car decided to do an impression of a 737, abd took to the air, I cleared a 2 ft high brick wall and landed in a garden. When the police arrived, one said to the other 'you owe me a tenner, I said it would be a Metro'. Remarkably the car suffered only light damage and was still drivable after recovery. I still scrapped it as the gearbox was goosed on it when I bought it, synchromesh ring failure on 2nd, a common fault. Glad your daughter was OK

    I have the same shirt. Got it from kohl’s . Sucks the car is toast but at least she’s not hurt. Pretty epic that she dukes of hazard the car and wasn’t injured.
    I took my brothers car for a joyride when he was in Florida. We lived in Chicago and in the dead of winter I spun out and ALMOST hit a tree. It spun in the street , hopped the curb and stopped about an inch from a tree. Took it back home and parked it and never touched it again or said anything. Don’t know of any damage or jumping the curb but no noticeable exterior damage.
    This was 20 years ago or so and that car is long gone.

      Carter me wants to find that funny. Fact that my adopted father on more than one notation did try and fail to do so and not with good reason either. If I had done something like this and I don't mean this metaphorically speaking he would've put me in a wheelchair.i had a racing go carts at one point he being an idiot spent quite a bit of time fixing and working on fiberglass body panels that were on it,th first time I had it out i got the gas petal jam at one point had an accident with the thing doing between 60 and up. He wasn't the least bit concerned with whether or not I was okay basically all he gave a damn about was I made a mess of the work he had done and he did brought quite a decent job out of beating the hell out of me.i got lucky that by the time I was 14 or 15 he know i wasn't in a position for him to get away with that crap anymore short of being harmed in order to do so not that it stopped him a few times from making the attempt with a kitchen knife or other things over the years.its why I've gone out of my way never to have kids and one of the only things that actually in any way fathers or scares me his children. I've had most of my ability for a motion driven out of me from what I grew up with to the point that their are people who legitimately think I'm a psycho path where they've been around me during the wrong situation and see me intimidate or scare somebody who was mentally unstable and much bigger than myself strictly for the fact I have little to no register Little to no emotion during high stress situations. I'm that guy people like to stand behind wean shit hits the fan but I'm not the guy they go inviting to Christmas dinner with family or the same reasons. Irony is I'm not even a big guy i just generally don't have much left in need for social interaction for the kind of things that normal people take for granted. One of the few things that still causes me what I would consider feer is being around other people's kids. Lost track of how many times ive had somebody's kid with out warning off and mail me in the groin or something like that their parents immediately thinking it's totally hilarious,and I never know how I'm going to react to something like that Yemen just how damaged I am in general and I'm automatically afraid that I'm going to lately lose my crap or say any number of obscenities or worse.

Of course the kid is totally to blame, should learn etc. but the damage is done, its over, so get over it, the kid won't learn from half a year of grudge... She could also learn very much from forgiveness. The amout of times he repeats that his daughter is at fault and how bad she is isn't painting a nice picture TBH - just my opinion, nothing personal nor a definitive judgement.
