Why are they happening in the first place is a better question here.

I don't actually believe in curses, but bad things just seem to happen around this car and I thought I should share this with others. The GPS thing reminds me of Final Destination.
The damn suction cup for my Garmin use to fall off ALL the time in my old car, don't know if it was due to heat or what but it would never stay on the windshield. So I refuse to ever use them again, plus they leave ugly rings.

Cars are not cursed - people are cursed.

PerfZ, you are wrong. Things usually work out for me. I'd say I have pretty good luck when it comes to most things. My Z on the other hand... Its cursed with perma-bad luck. A turbo blew 3 days after having it, I hit a dip in the road and bent my rim 4 days later, my crankshaft broke in half while on cruise control at 55mph less than a week after getting it out of the shop from the blown turbo, it got impounded after I did the engine removal, and now after spending close to $13,000 I find out that everything behind my timing cover has to be replaced. I've owned my Z for just over a year now, and I've been able to drive it a total of 9 days. Cars ARE cursed. Well mine is anyway. I wish this thing would just catch on fire.

Sounds like the Akuma Z from Wangan Midnight. Be careful with it.
