I bought a Zr1 corvette and then declared bankruptcy..
Jk.
But I would hope you are in some serious debt, and just completely unable to pay bills before you make that descision. My parents owned a buisness in a Napa 25yrs ago. They dropped everything they had into it, and it worked well for 5 years, shit hit the fan and they were upsidedown drowing in it. They declared bankruptcy and still to this day it affects them.

if you want any decent advice you should
1. try a different message board
2. give us a little info as to why you want to do this.
Filling bankruptcy is a big deal and you dont get away with murder like you would have back in the early 90's or 80's. I had a friend tell me he was going to file because he owed $15k in debt , you should be in pretty bad shape before filling.
the amount of debt, your age, and the age of your debt(s) should all be looked at carefully before deciding to file.

Well said...I've been in similar situations but its never worth the thought of filling for bankruptcy unless its a huge amount like stated by other's. If its something you can work out then handle your business bro we are capable of everything and anything so don't give up if it's something that's still within grasp. Hope you get everything solved bro.

so did they give you any credit for the amount they got for the car when it went to auction? sure your buddy at work went and got another car but filling for bankruptcy does not seem worth it over $14k.
you ask your friend at work what his interest rate was on this car he bought? how long his loan is for? you ask him if anyone co-signed? either way you save up a decent down payment and get something worked out with the company you got the loan from on your mach. I'm sure it will look a lot better if you were making small payments to them. do you own a home? if not then I would highly discourage you from filling as it could come back and bite you in the ass when going to buy a home.
What im trying to get at is car loans are still pretty much just handed out. filling bankruptcy for a new whip is not the answer, you have to remember that this will stay on your record for years! what is it? 7 years and something falls off your record? and bankruptcy stays on for 7-9 years(sorry I dont know how long). well...... you already got 1 year down out of the 7 to let it fall off. negotiate with the place your mach loan was through and tell them you want to work with them but they need to help you by showing you've made payments.
make some small payments for a little bit, save some extra$$$ for your down payment and when everything is all good get your car and at that point its up to you on what to do wether you want to keep paying that lender on your mach or what ever.
Whats the difference of you paying this Mach lender or a an attorney? and you will have already have a year down out of 7 to let it fall off your record. you never know what will happen in the future and to have the Bankruptcy lingering is all bad.
what if you go gambling and win $20k? you'll be like damn I could have put this money down towards buying a house but i filled bankruptcy. thats just a scenario for ya.

you dont need to air out all your business on here, BUT if your a young guy living at home still and dont see a house in your immediate future you will probably be able to bounce back fairly quick if you file.
if your on the older side (lets say 28-30+) waiting for that bankruptcy to clear may take its toll on you as you'll be tipping 40 before its all good again and mean while sure you got out of that $14k owed BUT you will pay one way or another because car loans,credit cards hell even getting PG&E turned on in a new home is all going to cost you more due to really bad credit.
is this Mach the only item F'ing your credit up? is there some cheaper things that could be handled to help boost your score?
when I took this financial course they always drilled into our heads:"when fixing credit, start with the cheapest, most current items first!"

Let the Mach 1 loan go. The bank can sell the debt to collections and they can possibly garnish your wages, but I dout that. You can get another car loan now, its just your gonna need a huge down payment, co-signer and the APR % rate will be @ 24%.
Like mentioned before, dont file dude, your better of making small payments to keep the collector off your back. I worked very hard for my 799 credit score and would work 3 jobs if needed to keep it that way. Everone is in debt at some point of their lives. We will always owe money to someone. Hell, I owe $280k on my house. Thats way worse than your $14k. It sounds to me that your young and got coaght up with excessive car payments.

Annualcreditreport.com. They can sue you but most likely won't. They will probably put a collection on your credit report which will fall off after 5-7 years. If you pull up your credit report it will tell you. Don't ever finance a car, it's never worth it.

That should be your last option, but if you are that bad in bills I would recommend selling coke, you will bounce back in two months jk
