I will have pictures up tomorrow, but I am at a loss for words right now. It's almost embarrassing and sickening to look at. They keyed every single panel on both sides of the car from headlight to tail light, on the hood and wrote "f*** u" on the trunk in big writing. Pretty much I have to get every panel of the car redone and painted and the sad thing is the chances of find the person is pretty much impossible. I made a report with the security guarding the parking garage and even talked to the police..i will get no help, unless the victim was spotted on surveillance. And they said the cameras don't zoom in so what's the point? My only bet is maybe catching a license plate, but even then it is slim to none. It was done at random because it was in a parking lot I never park at and no one would know I was there. I just can't believe someone can actually do that to such a beautiful car..:(

***Well, this is ugly to say the least...sorry for the profanity mods, not my doing obviously***

that sucks, where did this happen at ?

Sorry to hear about your car. Hope you get it fixed asap so you can again enjoy cruising in it. It's pretty sad that people have to do this kind of crap to something we work hard to get and keep.

jwjk · 12-07-2009, 03:16 AM

Wow, that completely SUCKS!

What is wrong with people that they have to resort to this type of behaviour? Why would they key such a gorgeous car?

This type of idiocy infuriates me!

You are the victim, I think you meant Perpetrator. one other thing:

Lauryn200 · 12-07-2009, 04:20 AM

Insurance will take care of it..sorry about the car

daphatgrant · 12-07-2009, 04:22 AM

G** damn man :(. Having one panel scratched is bad enough, but the whole car? :(

I'm sorry to hear this, hopefully they are able to find who did this.

ROD1 · 12-07-2009, 05:22 AM

If the parking garage is not municipal I would go to them and ask them to pay. If they refuse, I would threaten to go to the newspaper etc.. Might just help if peeps fear parking there and they lose business.

Scrappy Doo · 12-07-2009, 06:16 AM

Insurance will take care of you. It still blows ass though. I have been hit and runned 3 times in 5 years. All different trucks, all within 3 months of buying them. Hopefully number 4 will be safe.....

On the bright side now is the time to do custom paint or color if you were thinking it

shad2009 · 12-07-2009, 06:18 AM

Its 2009, almost 2010...EVERY camera should zoom in, ESPECIALLY survailence!!! This crap pisses me off, ppl r just stupid...sry about the car man, hope it can get fixed ASAP

amanc96 · 12-07-2009, 06:24 AM

Someone was jealous....

Sorry about your car. Maybe you can work something out with a bodyshop and get some stripes painted in or something custom.

tbarber87 · 12-07-2009, 06:41 AM

This seriously makes me mad, its stories like this that make me terrified to even DRIVE my car, for the fact that at some point, I will have to leave it parked somewhere. Are people really THAT caught up in their own world that for whatever reason to them, they don't think about how hard we work for these cars and how much we love them? Everyone has something they love and are proud of, be it a car, a collection, or even a child. . .and none of these jerks ever think, wow, what if someone ruin "what ever that thing is he loves" I'm not a firm believer in karma, but I hope it comes and bites him in the butt. . . HARD

2010 SSRS · 12-07-2009, 07:05 AM

damn punks, like to catch them and key their face.

PHEOX · 12-07-2009, 07:35 AM

Sounds like some idiots my age. I'd be on a rampage if that happened to me. Sorry about the car man, people are just ignorant nowadays and jealous of what they can't have.
