  • The Police came to my house and took my car. For those of you who don’t know, I bought a stolen car and it’s been a nightmare dealing with it. NBC 5 got ahold of my video and wanted to do a story on me. The same day I had an interview with an investigator for this case. It’s been very chaotic and busy trying to find my next step. 35k is gone and so is the car. #police #cars #impounded #corvette #money

    In ALL cases, if the deal sounds too good to be true......is ALWAYS is!
    $35K in cash....for a $60K car???? Come on!!!!!!!!!!!!
    $50K or $55K is a good deal on that car. Being $20K below that and the guy requiring cash.....no way!

      @@darknes7800 not saying I made 20k per car but that’s how I had the money to buy that car was from flipping cars and getting very good deals. The good deals are always out there but so are the scams and that’s what you have to watch out for like the one that got me.

    Nic, I feel bad for you brother. You can tell you're a car guy and bad things happen to good people sometimes, but I'm hoping this will all get resolved and you'll be back in a vette soon my friend! Don't let this deter you from owning a vette, they are great cars with 99.9% of the owners who would literally do anything for one another. There are a few jerks in the community, we just ignore them and go about being car guys! Take care and happy future motoring! Thanks, Brian

    I always use a VIN decoder and run through it with every option to make sure. The cash thing was weird, price was weird, your spidey senses should've been tingling. Think about it this way, maybe this story blows up and gets your CZcams channel off the ground. Could be the best (worst, at first) thing that ever happened to you- a blessing in disguise. Keep your head up and press on, it'll find a way of working out long term.

    I thought someting was fishy about the car since you bought it at a extremley low price, but again I did not wanna sound negative about it. A 2019 grand sport for 35K simply does not exist.Unless the car is a lemon or a wreck or stolen in your case. Sorry about that, but you can get your money back since you know who did you pay. I dont see any issues you getting your money back.

      In all seriousness, I’m sorry that happened to you. Are there no consumer protection laws in your state that might result in you getting your car back ? Being that you acted in good faith ? I’ve dealt with title fraud on RE deals and eventually been able to sort it out.
