keyed-in my driveway


I am the kind of guy that never says a bad word about anyone, always waive at my neighbors, if they need a hand with something I am there.

After work (1am) i parked in my driveway watched a little tv and went to bed, this morning I had a 12 inch key mark front quarter panel. My door ding guy thinks it can be buffed out. Doesnt matter though, I will be depressed until tuesday (the earliest he can get to my house)

You sure it wasn't before you got home?

Could have been someone with a jacket and the zipper scratches it.

Here.. I'll do the neighborly thing and make you feel better.

True story.. I put my first dent in my Camaro the other day..

How? Being that it's still new and I'm used to driving jeeps, I'm not 100% used to getting in and out of the camaro.

On my way getting out of the car, I lost balance, and started to fall.. I put a thumb size dent in the drivers rear quarter panel as I used it to steady myself.

Next time I have a choice between falling on my face and falling against the camaro, I'm choosing to take one to the face.

Luckily, I'm getting the dent popped out on Thursday.

I'll one up you MM how's this one within the first week of my purchases mines was keyed. Went to the dealer they buffed it out. Two weeks after they came back again and keyed it deeper down to the bone. Talk about pissed. wow !!! I was ready to catch a body behind that one. Then I took it to the dealer only to have them d$cks claim to fix it, and couldn't even match the paint. don't even get me started agin. lol !! Bottom line bro you cant have nothing nice ! To many jealous people out here. Maybe if they'd get off their lazy a$$es and stop hating, and try and earn then they too can one day own something nice.

Ugh, the thought of this frightens me. I really don't understand what these vandals get out of this.

Sorry that happened to you. I'm so glad I can drive mine into a shop building every night and lock it down.

I have kids, about 5 - 9 years old, and they ride bikes around the whole place. Sometimes they might scrape the end of their handlebars on the side of a car if they get too close. That's happened to me a few times and I know who the culprits were! My 6 year old at the time and his 8 year old cousin. I get out there and tell the kids to not get anything near the camaro, no bikes, no little kiddie cars, no rakes and shovels. They all know to steer clear of the camaro but I still have to watch them because they can key a car inadvertently as well as any teenager.

It could just be kids that didn't intend any harm, but don't want to fess up to it either.

Try this one:

2 weeks after I brought ol' Ladykiller home and spending 2 days claying, polishing, sealing, waxing, and buffing some POS decided it would be a good idea to toss a rock off the interstate overpass - trying to take out the windshield instead banging the sh!t out of the roof.

Body shop had the car longer than I did. $1k+ damage. I'd like to find the POS and chuck their limp corpse off the overpass.
