Jake, don't you have any self-respect? This idea is blatant begging, just like any panhandler! Get a job. 16 year-olds don't need 1 car, much less 2, and no one else should buy it for you. You should be embarrassed to even think of asking. I'm surprised that you'd even post this idea!

Whew, there, I feel better now !

As I said I could have bought the car but wanted to add a bit or a story to, if I bought a Volvo I bought a beater, if I crowd funded the Volvo I have a rolling story and art peace.

Piece. The word is piece.

and that is about what I expected and I can't blame them. Nobody likes a beggar especially when there is really no real need (regardless of how you would like to spin it). I know it seems to not be appealing or logical but you will appreciate things 10x more when you have to work for them...get a job.

If you wanted a realistic chance of people donating to your cause, I would have left the make/model of the vehicle you were replacing ambiguous. As soon as you let people know it was a porsche you were shooting yourself in the foot.
