Thank you guys. I just took the car to the Mazda Body shop. Its going to take at least 4 days. Its a bummer, but I didnt want to see the car like that any longer. I'm waiting for more pictures of front bumpers from different brands and I will probably make the switch if i like one of them. I didnt mean to insult anyone here. Sorry if I did. What I meant was that is usually people with poor or low degree of 3rd space orientation that have this kind of accident in which the targets are not moving,. Because I have 3 sisters , I can tell they are more prone to accidents. Of course is the fact that a lot of women drive better that guys,but that is not the usual. Another type is very old people because brain shrinks with age and they loose spatial orientation and that is scientifically proven.
Thank you all.
Happy Holidays to all.

 

LOL. Apologizing and continuing to insult in the same paragraph. Priceless.

Everyone is entitled to have a bad day. I don't care what your ability for 3D spacial awareness is. It is more that people act responsibly when something like this happens rather than seek a cowardly way out. You are very fortunate in that someone with integrity hit you rather than a true moron.

I also find it entertaining that those of you who have received damage to your car and were upset over the fact got compensation and then decided to upgrade your cars either by upgrading the damaged part or ignoring it and upgrading something else. Its your perogative of course but why act so upset over it when you appear much happier afterwards?

bleh. I'm spewing on now. My apologies to the rest for my diatribe.

 

most accidents are "avoidable" people make honest mistakes, and this guy took the responsibility for his mistake, something that I'm willing to bet 8 outta 10 people won't do.

So, he gets labeled as a "moron". Some people just make me sick.

 

your lucky, if it was me i would've took off. call me a ******** if you will but thats who i am

 

OMG... seriously... u r SOOO lucky...
just think of this way... that guy could've RUN off... and u'll be left with nothing but a damage car!!!!!
thank god!

 

wth?... I've heard of late responses, but this is funny...

Talk about pulling a thread straight out of the grave.. The thread is almost a year old...

 

Consider this, I came back to my car and found that someone had keyed it. 2 weeks old. No note just a signature of a jealous jerk I guess.

 

Ok I dont look at dates. new to site had my car since March

 

You are really lucky that the guy left a note...not to mention, with his real phone number! Almost restores my faith in humanity! I had the occasion to watch a female senior citizen (politically correct) swing wide into a parking space in Delray Beach Home Depot..hitting a brand new Infinity in the rear quater panel with such force that car actually rocked! As I watched transfixed, she backed out seemingly to straighten herself out to complete the park...but instead, continued to back out and take off! Too fast for me to get a plate number. Since purchasing my 8, I park as far out in a lot as possible...never vallet park (too easy for them to take a joy ride, and they do). I figure the extra excersise is worth any worries. Again...you are very fortunate to have come away so clean.

 

I think the moron in this story is the one who doesn't have a clue how lucky he is.

 

Please PM me that guys phone number. I want to call him and congratulate him for being a decent person.

 

Don't cry. Your RX8 will be as good as new in a few days. Put a perfect car in an imperfect world and that's what you get.

 

Hah! The guy hasn't even posted here since Jan 2004. He prolly has it fixed by now, or sold it, or something.
