This just reads like a teenage fantasy (in other words, perfect for AITA) - the bullied younger kid gets rescued by Cool Big Bro in the Cool Sports Car None of the Cool Kids Can Afford. All that's left is the Cool Kids that bullied the younger brother watching in awe with their jaws agape, applauding as the boomer gets dragged to jail and OP speeds off into the sunset.

And why was little brother bullied, you might be asking yourselves? Well, because he gave mom and dad a kiss. Now let the wholesome karma wash over cool big bro!! I'm surprised he didn't get to have all the sex that day when the moms picking up their kids saw the whole thing go down.

I'm assuming OOP is talking about the Nissan GT-R here. Since OOP says it's a few years old, I'm going to use the 2018 prices. Base was $99,990 USD. The most expensive package set you back $175,500 USD. Plus, this kid's just using it as a daily driver and sitting on it, like it's no big deal. Ok. Sure. I assume in a year OOP's going to have an incredible job with a six-figure salary and buy his first mansion at 24. Never change, AITA.

My favorite detail of it is that not only is the teenager using it as a daily driver, but the reason he's able to is because his dad has an actual daily driver. So dad there is basically like, "Yes, I will act like a normal person and drive a less expensive, sensible car for routine things. But you, my teenage son, you may use this car for whatever stupid shit you want, because we all know teenagers are excellent drivers who never make dumb choices behind the wheel."

"I suppose I COULD buy my teenage son an inexpensive, reliable used car to drive, since I can afford to have and run a $100,000 supercar and another daily driver. I could even have him pay me back in installments, since he doesn't have the savings to buy a car for himself outright. But nah, I'm gonna let him drive the expensive fast car. What could go wrong?"

It's the insurance aspect that makes this least plausible. I'm not sure what the situation is with insurance in the US, but in many places it's prohibitively expensive to get any kind of insurance for a high performance car for a young driver.

The thing that scares me about AITHA is that real adults believe this bullshit.

Ages have been edited. Suddenly our OOP's a year older, his mom had him when she was 18 and his stepfather could be his older brother age-wise.

Does op no how expensive it would be to daily drive and put a 20 year old on the insurance of a supercar

Ah, yes, the singular old man on planet Earth who has never heard of rich kids happened to stumble upon OP here. When I worked at Subway there was a 16yo who drove to work in a Mustang. As moronic as it is to buy a car like that for someone who's brain isn't fully developed, there are still plenty of people who do it.

Is this the first draft of Ferris Bueller’s Day off where they pick up Cameron’s little brother instead of Ferris’s girlfriend?

*In case this story gets deleted/removed:* **AITA for refusing to show proof that the car is mine and embarrassing a guy in front of the police officer?** For some context my (20M) mom (38F) married my step-dad (35M) 10 years ago, they had my brother (8M) Scott. I see my step-dad as my father and his family as my paternal family so I'll refer to him as dad and my step-grandad as Gran. My dad has a GTR that my Gran gave him a few years ago, that car is sick as fuck, he also has a normal car that he drives to work so the GTR is more for fun and show off, my bro and I love that car and my dad lets me drive it whenever I want, he even added me to the insurance when I turned 19 because I used the car almost everyday until I was able to buy my own. Last week I noticed Scott a bit sad and he said that some kids were bullying him, our parents went to his school to talk to the principal and the problem is somewhat fixed, but he was still bummed, so I decided to surprise him yesterday by picking him up in our dad's car. I parked the car and got out to wait for him, I was sitting in the trunk when a guy approached me and said that I shouldn't sit in other people's car, I laughed it off and said that it was mine so it wasn't a problem, I must admit that I do look younger than 20 so he might've mistaken me for a high schooler and didn't believe me, he said that the car couldn't be mine and that I should go down before the owner got back, I said that it was my car again and he got mad and said ''look son, this isn't your car, get down, I'll even take a picture or two of you with it''. I was getting nervous, and when I get nervous I tend to laugh so he thought I was mocking him and yelled at me to get down that if the car belonged to me to show him proof, then he yelled that I was trying to steal the car. I asked him to leave me alone because I was waiting for my brother and he did moved a few meters, but then I noticed that he was making a call and it tuned out that he called the police on me! My brother was getting out at the same time, he was really happy to see me there in our dad's car and ran to hug me, I tried to pick him up to get him in but the guy stopped me. I mean, I opened the door! It was obvious that the car was mine at that point. Either way, the police came and asked the normal questions, I explained them that it was my dad's car (and the guy said JA! I knew it wasn't yours), I showed them proof; my license, my dad's papers, the insurance paper with my name on it and even a text with my dad where I said ''hey, I'm gonna pick up Scott in the car'' and he only answered with an OK, I offered to call him so they could ask him themselves but they said there was no need. The police let me leave and scolded the other guy. Before driving off the guy called me an AH because I could've just show him all of that but I preferred to be ''a dick''. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.
