okay.... frustration post... Just gotta vent. :wallbash:

I ALWAYS park my car far away at malls/movie theaters. Take
the single spots on the street's (away from even trees if possible). The
car also stays in the garage when I'm not driving.

I've had my car for just over a year now, and it's the fourth time I've got
damage on it while leaving it parked

#1 good size dent in driver side front wheel wheel. Fixed beautifully by "Procillo's", can't even tell where it was bumped, spelling might be off. They thought it was brushed/tapped by some other car.

#2 While parked at a single spot on a side street, a car must have reversed into my front. Luckly only my plate was badly dented, no other damage, and a pile of red paint chips from the other car :-) A witness left me a partial license number w/ a description of a small red four door. No real damage so not worth pursueing.

#3 Small dent just above the passenger door, b/w the door and roof. It's like
the size of dime, and only visible under certain angles/lighting. Looks to me like someone slammed on it w/ a closed fist. "Luckly" it's a hard part of the car and doesn't dent easy. Might go back Procillo's and see what they say.

#4 Today I get home and noticed there's a hole on my rear driver side light cover. About the size of a loonie. I had even ridden my bike the last 3 days to work (I own a couple of bicycle stores), and first time out again parked in a nice area in a single spot...crack.... lucks like maybe a rock was thrown at it or something???

AAAAGFGGHGHGHGGHGh I'm sooo pissed.... Gotta get a fancy alarm.

I hate those proximity sensor alarms when I walk by cars that have them... but I think I'm gonna have to get one... also must have a paging feature... I wannna catch the next jerk that f#cks w/ my car.

Sorry about the rant.... just had to let off some stem... (Deep breathe)

Anybody else having similar problems w/ jerks asses???? and no I don't have any enemies that I know of.

Dude iam so sorry to hear about that i just picked up my car last mon I worry to sometimes when my car is parked at my work

yea that sucks! i was rear ended on lakeshore by some moron who must of mistaken the accelerator for the brake. We were completely stopped! dented by back bumper :/

it happens to all of us, haven't had the car yet for a year now and I have a few dings and scratches from soccer mom SUV's.

In the spirit of cheering you up - there's worse. Recent threads have included folks parking out at the end of the lot and returning to find gravel sprinkled in ther open sunroof or a full coke poured all over the hood and windshield.

I also submit pictures of some real winners that drive on the same roads we do. Count it as good luck your RX-8 was not in front of them.

lol... drive thru pharmacy ... that does make me feel better.
(providing no one was hurt)

Ohhh... I forgot.... There's a condo going up a few buildings down from work... 3 months ago I parked about 100 feet away and they still managed to sprinkle wet cement all over the car... At least I knew the culprit's that time and they paid for "diamond" coating detailing at Ziebarts.

Toronto sux :-)

Montreal is worse; the drivers use the adjacent cars to figure out if they've parked close enough. <crunch> Yup, that's close enough.

at least they arnt major dents and stuff... just small little things that can be fixed quickly.. still a pretty big piss off... i have terrrible luck when it comes to cars.. im surprised nothing has happend to mine... but.. *knock on wood*
