How many scratches do you have?

I tried searching the forums but couldn’t find this. I wanted to know how many scratches/dings do you have on your Camaro? I have had my car for over 3 months, put on 5000+ miles (a lot of highway driving) and have 2 small scratches. You barely can tell and they are very light. I figure this comes with daily driving any car… I don’t plan on fixing them yet, may go and get my car scratches removed each year or something cause I am sure more will form.

ZERO. I purchased a polisher from Adams and the paint is perfect with ~2400 miles....

When I got my car it had a nasty door ding on the passenger side that I had them fix BEFORE I took custody of her. Then I don't know when, or how, but I ended up with a deep scratch on the front fascia, looks like someone in a higher vehicled parked too close to my front. Oh, and I also noticed after I took custody that there were a lot of fine hairlike scratches around the door handles. I haven't put any on myself, and very very VERY careful where I park and what cars I park by if I have no choice.

I have one on the hood(little brother), got keyed at school on the driver side door, scratches on the roof(little brother), and a really bad one on the rear bumper from someone hitting my car with a shopping cart

Zero scracthes and zero dings. I don't park near other cars. That helps a lot.
