There are just very jealous, and shitty people in this world, more so now, than ever before. Entitlement. They believe us folks that work hard for our prized āpossessionsā, donāt deserve them. There are tent-towns full of homeless that deserve a piece of what we have worked our entire adult lives for. Itās complete BS. Defunding police has just allowed the behavior and mindset to happen more frequently, and it doesnāt seem to be getting any better.
Whatever you do, never, and I mean never EVER, drive through Downtown Portland at night. If one of the flash-mobs bust out, they make it a point to destroy everything that isnāt a gigantic pile of shit. They will walk right over your Mustang, just like they did the Porsche Panamera a few nights ago. Because, mobs rule.
My DD is a very nice Lexus, lowered, wheels, etcā¦..Home Depot Portland - parked 15-20 spots from the nearest car, come out to a pile of shit with F America decals all over it, parked within 12ā of drivers door (I have license plates that support fallen LEOās - so Iām sure thatās probably part of the reason). They thought they were funny/assholes.
I spent 10 minutes waiting for them to come out, and before entering from the passenger side of my car, I made sure to disconnect a few vacuum hoses from their wheel well. Probably not the best idea, but assholes that are deliberate assholes, need to be told so.
I bought my 06GT new. Had it for all of a few months before the first hit. My son was backing into the driveway in his lifted F150 with tailgate down with his dirt bike in bed. Tailgate caught the left rear quarter just behind the gas door. Kid was very upset so what can a dad do but get it fixed.
My family told me that GT was cursed!
Nice car!! Looking at the pics, I would pity the fool who would hit your mailbox. Maybe thatās why itās made that way.I bought my 06GT new. Had it for all of a few months before the first hit.

Thought that would be it.
2nd hit...Was leaving my neighborhood at 6AM and stopped at a STOP sign waiting to make a turn...paper delivery guy hits me from behind! Minor ding in rear bumper. IDIOTS NOT PAYING ATTENTION!
3rd and 4th hits....tapped from behind while I was sitting in traffic and sitting at red light! minor bumper dings. IDIOTS NOT PAYING ATTENTION!
5th hit.....parked in parking lot at work. Tractor trailer driver took turn too tight and clipped the rear bumper! IDIOTS NOT PAYING ATTENTION!
6th hit...parked away from everyone at Home Depot..came out to see crease in driver fender.
just above the GT emblem. Fixed all the dings and dents but never got around to the fender crease. That was on the list along with road rash on front bumper and three paint jobs on the aluminum hood!
Keeping my GT/CS in a bubble!
I get it. Depending on where we go, depends on what we drive. Thankfully, most areas we frequent there arenāt many worries.
BenWent to the gym today and when I came back out I noticed a crease in rear panel by the window. Itās hard to see but itās a 2ā vertical crease. Looks like either someone set something on it or dropped something on it, idk. Work hard to buy nice shit for this to happenā¦
Been their had that happen to me few time's over the years on different car's, I thought parking way in back from other people would help but they just park beside you anyhow either in hopes being next to nice car theirs won't get dinged or just to be asshats. People just don't get it at time's, had someone leaning on my mustang few weeks ago when I came out to parking lot at the mall told the guy to get the f$%k off my car he gave me this blank look I asked him if he wanted to post for new paint jobWent to the gym today and when I came back out I noticed a crease in rear panel by the window.

Definitely sucks that some people just don't get it, tried parking at back of loot away from everyone but that doesn't work either as they'll park beside you in hopes their shit won't get dinged as it is beside nice car or they just do it to piss you off. You may be able to just tap that out yourself by removing inside carpet or plastic panel, that's all the PDR people will do well they heat it up sometimes now that I'm saying it maybe just let them do it lol. I had couple dings on my last car and they got them out pretty quick and one was definitely lot worse then your's, its well worth the money.Went to the gym today and when I came back out I noticed a crease in rear panel by the window.

Yeah I agree even though I like saving extra money for fuel or towards future mods it is best to leave some stuff to the pro's, I'm sure it'll be worth it in the long run. I was going to hook my dash cam up to constantly record but slim chance it will catch car hitting mine with their door, just sucks you can't go anywhere these day's without worrying if it'll get marked up. I remember years ago an old lady opened her door of her Saturn into my foxbody, I got out and asked her why she just did that and tried to ignore it here answer was 'well that's what those rubber strips are for on your door' I nearly ripped her melon off then she said her car was brand new and mine was old not worth much crazy old people my damn wheels on that car were worth more then her car. Lol
I remember my dad helped my brother get a brand new 2003 firebird. Well, he had a seizure and couldnāt drive for a year so Iād ride with my dad to go pick up my brother from work. We were sitting outside in the car one day waiting for my brother, and the guy in the car next to us slams his door into the driver side. So, my dad gets out and asks the guy what the fuck his problem was and he said āhe was having a badā day and shoved my dad. Needless to say that manās day got WAY worse after that, lol.
