  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    I want to make a new data store for each individual car, if a player owns the vehicle the value inside the data store will be true, else it will be false.

  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
    I can’t even create the datastore with the name of the vehicle ID, it just gives me this error:
    [attempt to call a Instance value] I’ve tried tostring’ing the car id (which is a number based on its order in the car selection menu

  3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    I’ve asked elsewhere with no responses.

PurchaseCar.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    local car = ReplicatedStorage.ShowcaseCars:FindFirstChild(CurrId)
    local CarDS = DataStore2(CurrId, Player)
    local CurrStatus = CarDS:Get(false)
    if CurrStatus then
        print("Player owns car!")
    else
        CarDS:Set(true)
        print("Players purchased car!")
    end
end)

The message about instance value usually means you used a part instead of the part.Name
