Someone kicked my car

I was at the gas station paying, within 15 sec. someone kicked and dented my car. I'm so pissed, why do people hate? I just finish washing my car during the easter holiday, took pics and was gonna upload them tonight. I guess I'll upload them with pics of befor and after.

Sorry to hear that.

All these malicious attacks being reported we're going to need a new section on the forum.

People hate because we have nicer cars. I had somebody dent my 911 before. When you have nicer things, people with less think it will make them feel better when they damage your stuff. Goes down to the basest levels. I once saw this guy drive up in a Jalopy old station wagon & get upset with another person with a Toyota Camry & break off his rear view mirror. It's all perspective I guess. The RX8 isn't a Porsche or Ferrari, but to many people it is a higher class car.

^ That's a pretty sad mentality. "I can't do better for myself so I need to destroy the things I can't have"

15 seconds and someone hits your car?? Did you find out who it was?

That's just plain wrong.

yeah, it is sad. Tells you how f-upped society is these days. I remember some of the posters relating how at a HIN event last year severl of the cars got keyed. Hope that made the guy feel a lot better about himself. Losers are losers.

What goes around really does come around. It may be a minute, week or year but it's only a matter of time.

I asked and they said that they don't have surveilance, so I called the 76 HQ. they said they would call me later today... hmmm nothing yet. This really hurts, makes me feel like I want to keep my car at home.

Ouch. A Texan's yellow got nailed by a hail storm recently. Now yours suffers this. Makes me feel like mine is living on borrowed time.

Sorry for your pain, hopefully a good dent fixing shop can pull it out without too much trouble.

someone ramed a shooping cart to my car last week luckily no dent just a smudge that wiped off. Feel for you though, when I saw what happened I literally dropped my bags an ran. Hopefully everything turns out ok for you and your 8. The guy will get his someday.

That really sucks. I wish I would have been there and saw them. I would have to go back to my High School days and do a Inside Linebacker hit on them!

The dirt bag! What a scum-bucket!

I try to always park where I can keep an eye on mine, every second! The person that did this would have to be looking for the proper time to inflict damage and be gone in seconds. Think about it. How much time would it take to be in a situation where first of all you look at a car and think to yourself... I think I'll kick that car, pull up next to the victim, get out of you vehicle, kick the damn car, get back in your car and hall ***. But in the process, you would have to make sure that the person is not looking.

That is serious work! Just think, if this type of criminal mind were put to good use in a legitimate job how efficient they could be and beneficial to society.

I'm really sorry to here about your car and hope a paintless dent removal guy can get the ding out. Good luck. And VooDoo-DooDoo on the scum-bags!

The thing I can never figure out is, why is that these douchebags will walk past luxo cars and SUVs costing thousands more to **** with the RX-8?

A member of the RX-8 TriState Club here in NJ stopped into a quickie mart to grab a quick cup of coffee and returned moments later to find someone had keyed the length of his Titanium 8. I swear, hanging is too good for them. Yet some goodie two-shoes would complain if you caught them in the act and dragged them behind the 8 for a few miles. {sorry for the visceral reaction}

People just hate those that have more than they do. In my work, I have had construction workers that will take a crap in air conditioning ducts of big houses. They do it becuase they hate the person building the house. There is a special place in hell for people like that.

I hope your car gets fixed, and has better luck in the future.
