When i get my Z, ill spread the word on the neighborhood that its MY car! I can leave my windows all the way down and NO ONE will mess with it. Lil neighborhood gangstas take care of the block. I tell them to make sure no one messes with any cars. They actually dont cause any trouble, just beat up the other kids that make our street look ugly with all that graffiti. I think thats better than a garage for me. I never have to lock my car. (dont mean to sound cocky or stupid). If anything does happen, ill make sure to take pics. It sucks what stupid jealous people do. They deserve to be hung from their nutts!

1. Everybody has a gun... So buying another one will not help.

2. Valet? Are you f-n kidding me?


There is no way to keep our cars safe from vandalism. The things that we can do are not act like a-holes, and always watch “our back “

Agreed..

I use to valet cars and even though I was gentle with the cars I would never valet my car anywhere. The other valets would talk about how they accidentally hit/dent other cars and would try to hide it from the owners. So valet isn't that great of an idea, but that's just my thoughts...

Plus I don't trust anyone to drive my car except my closest friends that know how to drive it with out hurting it.

Two types of people.

1. They are very jealous, they feel if they can't afford a nice car, you should not have one.

2. Alot of people hate on personal success.

I recently had my car keyed at a local theatre. It will cost $874 dollars to fix peoples hate on my Z.

Sorry to here what happened to your Z.

I've yet to have this happen and it's a fahqing shame that you guys/gals have had to have this juvenile **** happen. I had a feeling this type of thing went on and since I've had my Z I always park it out in the open in parking lots (not full proof) or leave it in my garage (I live in a good neighborhood too). Sadly, it's almost inevitible that this type of thing will happen. This type of behavior should be right along the same lines as GTA and be punished accordingly if caught.

I feel ya man, $2,100 it took to get out the key marks and rock dent out of my Z.... that was the most expensive vandalism done to my Z, now all I have to do is get some factory parts replaced do to other vandalism which we all know the factory parts are some pricey parts..

About 2 weeks into owning my Z somebody keyed my driver side door. The entire length of the door.

Just got quoted at a body shop for $1500-$2000. They want to redo the entire side of the car to avoid color mismatching.

My cars in the shop right night for being vandalised. The damage came out to about $2,700 after my adjustor made some changes from the original estimate of around $3,300.

But mine wasn't because of jealousy, it was because I had been sleeping with her girlfriend for several months awhile back. And no, that wasn't a typo.

She's currently been under investigation, but the case should soon be closed and charges pressed. The investigator actually isn't able to tell me anything at this point in the investigation. :/

Bull daggers are some rough biotches. They can do the worst revenge **** of anyone I've encountered. One bull dagger actually wanted to fight me because her g/f was talking to me in a club. I can't imagine what she would have done to my car if it had been there instead of me...

When I get My Z, the first thing I'm going to spend money on is an in-car surveillance system, that or I'll just have to install a motion triggered gattling gun(with warning signs placed in the vicinity of course ). In all seriousness though, that really sucks

A good amount of members here got their Zs keyed, egged, or spray-painted.
I'm one of them
Also, it seems that someone's trying to fu*k with my license plate lately

had my Z parked in a parking lot and someone was nice enough to slash the roof for me.. Nizzan wants 2100 CNDto replace the roof, and 7 Hours of labour to install it. To top it all off, Nissan does not carry this part anywhere in the country, it has to come from Japan apparently (3 - 4 week wait)

+1 for the gattling gun.

The surveilance is something I really need to invest in, seriously though. I can't afford all this vandalism with my insurance high enough as it is. I just pray this first one turns out with a prosecution.
