Hey, Karma is a *****, the person who did this will probably never get to drive anything like what you have.
+1 This is some idiot who didn't have anything else to do. The fact that he thinks you have to be rich to drive a Z tells you all you need to know.

OK!! I got off from work Tuesday, only to come out to my Z and see that someone had keyed my car on the drivers side. Just on the drivers side!! what the ...... If you intend to cut someone, just do TWO PANELS of the car and it will add up to your deductible. What is funny, is I work at the courthouse and the city police garage is just a block away within sight!! what is the world coming to? I've been looking at vettes. Im just sick.

That really sucks!!

I am so paranoid, my car stays in the garage all the time, and when I do drive her, she is rarely out of my sight.

I am sorry about your Z, and hope none of us has to suffer. I too have been keyed, but it was on the driver's side window. Luckily it came of after rubbing and scrubbing it hard with a wet towel. The scratched looked like a "Z" also, which means it was no accident. Never again have I parked on the closest spot to mall.

Has anyone got side door dents? I have lots big ones and small ones on both doors right on the style lines. It looks so annoying. Does anyone know how to repair them? Thanks

i bet the poeple thats scratched ur car lives locally and u prolly know them. Its a shame hearing something like this. Makes u want to put cameras out of ur house or in the car. Keep ur head up.. The car can be fixed and no time. Just thank god u werent outside, that could have to led to something bad.

hospital
lawsuit
prison
etc./use ur imagination

****ing people...a lot of the time they think the car costs way more than it does. People often think my car cost in upwards of $60k!!! Nice to know the car looks that good but damn, these cars really aren't all that expensive. Friends of mine drive cars that cost about the same or more but nobody hassles them about being *rich*. It's annoying as ****, and people are jealous of something that they don't have so they mess it up. I don't know what they think they've accomplished but they deserve a real good *** whooping.

That does suck. Sorry to see that happen to ANY car.

Worst that's happened to my Z is I came out in the morning and found a chunk of tangerine on the hood. It didn't appear to be thrown but seemed like it was tossed or placed there. I asked the neighborhood kids about it and gave them a *warning* about ****ing with other peoples' hard earned property. Haven't had any trouble since.

I have my car in the garage at home always, but as it is, I have to go to work. When they get you at work, what do you do? I will be getting it fixed but just as I have done on my previous 4 cars, I will be installing a perimeter alarm. I have had no problems when I have an alarm, but I didn't think I would need one now. I guess I was wrong. I still look at it as a blessing because I keep the heat in the car and if I was out there I may have been in more trouble then, than the way things turned out.
I got an estimate from one of Paducah's finest body shops, and it comes up to about $650. Just slightly over the deductable. It won't be worth the claim. If they had just done the whole car,..... Maybe not. (God make my enemies my stepping stones)

You say you get along with most people pretty well, and didn't cause anyone to be personally mad at you.

Remember that guy who was standing in the corner by himself at that last party you were at? the one who ****s with everyone and is an overall jackass when he isn't watching everyone else enjoy life?

Yeah it was him.. probably never even talked to him, but he's jealous and neglected by his parents so he'll never have anything worthwhile. HE knows that so he ****ed up your richboy car.

I don't understand why people think that your rich or something when you drive a Z. Those big SUV's that everybody and their dog drives cost more to buy and operate than my little 06 Enthusiast in Magnetic Black. We all make choices in life on what we want to drive.

Why on earth would you "deserve" something like that simply because you have more money than someone else? Did you know that only about 30% of new millionaires acquire wealth through inheritence? The other 70% do it the old-fashioned way- working, saving, and investing. What the hell makes someone "more deserving" of having their car keyed just because they are, in your eyes, "rich?"

Everything is relative, and everyone, rich or poor, feels the same when something like that happens to their car. Because many states REQUIRE insurance by law, rich or poor, the cost of repairs (mostly paid by insurance) is not what hurts. It is the feeling of violation that comes with some random ignorant ******* destroying your personal property that hurts.

Grow up.

sorry to hear about all those idiots keying your cars. i would most probably kill someone. well i wouldn't kill them but i would bring them real close to death so they suffer horribly for the stupid things they did.

One reason is in Need for Speed Carbon the Z cost 70k! I seen that and I though yeah right! I had to explain to my 12 yo it didn't cost 70k since he made the comment about I should have no problem getting him a civic when he's 16.
