Looks to me like a dealership car (stickers on the windshield???)

It's a dealership car (Charlesglen Toyota), there was a bit of hail damage to the white one up here too.

My Lexus got hit a bit as well.

Should check out the Evo's at Mitsubishi though, a lot of aluminum parts on those (including the roof).

OK my bad, still feel sorry for the car though....

My FRS was in the shop after someone rear ended me two weeks after I got it and it has hail damage like the photos above now!

So stupid to only have a car for two weeks and get a 8000 dollar rear end and then hail damage, my car is going to no longer feel new and I am almost hoping the make it a total loss.

Mine got hit last month while I was hiking in kanaskis country, Lucky for me we stopped and once I saw golf ball sized hail in the ditch me and my buddy driving an S2000 turned around and booked it the other direction, I escaped with 2 dents that PDR was able to remove easily.

I feel for anyone that got hit tho, theres no worse feeling than being put in position were theres nothing you can really do.
Calgary weather has been messed all summer

Geeze, looks more like that FR-S was taken onto a driving range.

jenzan · 08-15-2012, 01:52 AM

Great...am I going to be the only BRZ owner here to say it...?

Mine has way more than two dents in it. I actually wish I was @Bu-Tang. But I'm not that lucky. Probably have like a dozen dents all over the bumper, roof and trunk.

I don't even want to drive it because I'm so embarrassed.

I have just passed by the dealership, saw the poor FR-S, and I saw there was a Sold tag on it. Did someone buy it after the hail damage?

Jesus, clean up that garage of yours.

If I had a garage mine would look like yours. Except be otherwise empty other than the car. :P
