I know it's all minor, but I guess I just needed to vent. It sucks that it's my first new car, and that I'm paying for myself. I didn't expect any of this within the first few weeks of ownership and it's just frustrating.

I don't know what it is but this car seems to be in a lot of accidents. I'm not sure if its due to the young drivers not knowing how to drive a rwd, them just fugging around or other cars target fixation but this car seems to really have a curse.

This car must be protected at all times b/c there are haters and they will fugg up your car. It was the same for the VW's in the 80's and the Hondas of the 90's. My Supra sits in the garage and the times I do drive it, I make sure it's within view and not left alone for a long time.

I have my factory header sitting in the garage with a broken stud that is going to get drilled out, I dont see any complications?

Also, my windshield got cracked TWICE in less than 2 months of ownership. Crap happens.

Trying blaming the exhaust guy. It's all his fault. Even the broken window and splintering.

It makes just as much sense as blaming the car for external problems.

Now if you had crickets, rust, idle issues, no traction in the rain, and moisture in your tail lights...that I could understand.
