Not always.

I just read that single post of yours in this thread, and nothing else. Because I can.

Was going through the drive thru at Arby's one day and I pulled up to the window. The guys checking out my car and says "dude that's such a dope Tc!" I was like uhhhhh thanks but it's an frs..."oh man those are like my favorite cars I want one so bad". Just shook my head in complete confusion and drove off before I even got my food. And then more recently, my little sisters chickens got out of their coop and I come home to six of them on my frs. Scratched the hood, bumper, front driver side fender, fender badge panel (Not sure what to call that, where the 86 badge is stuck to), roof, and truck. And now I have a freezer full of chicken.

I have too many to count

Where i used to work there was an enormous parking lot with mostly empty spaces, and i would park in the spot as far away as possible from the place to get away from everyone. Well there was a coworker who was "into" cars, and really liked my 86. He would talk to me sometimes and he thought it was cool to park next to me because he had some pos tc and though we were scion bros (fuck scion). I didn't think much of it at the time but one day he opens his door and it hits my car so hard it leaves a dent almost all the way down my door. The worst of it was 1/4 inch deep and 3 or so inches long and it went almost all the way down the door. The dude says its not that bad and ends up quitting the job and i never heard from him again. Asshole.

Another (also at work) happened when my genius coworkers decided to have a football catch in the parking lot next to my 2 week old car, it ended up landing on my roof and put a nice football dent in my roof. Again assholes

The last one i can think of right now was my fault. It was the beginning of fall and i park under an oak tree and in the span of two days the acorns put hail like damage on the roof, hood, and trunk. Luckily insurance cane through but that was a pain.

Needless to say i haven't had the best luck these past two years haha.

If i think of others ill post em up

Back when I drove a Boxster, I went to a bar/liquor store one night to pick up a six pack of beer. On my way out, getting into my car, some drunk middle-aged woman comes stumbling out with the help of some guy. As soon as I start my car I hear "Baby! He's got a Ferarri. Go kick his ass!" To which he replied "Shut up and get in the car." At least one of them was sensible.

I Iove it, sounds deep and just loud enough for me without any drone. Install could have been easier... Had to drill/grind with a Dremel the holes out for the bolts to fit in the cat pipe.

Ok. Yea I had to ask. I was in between Greddy and the Dezod but some people on the forums said it wasn't loud and dissapointed and a bunch of people scraped, so I went with dezod. I'm loving the Dezod, it's sorta the same concept for sound as well.

That's good, definitely does not scrape unless you are lowered then it will. I have gone over all kinds of very large speed bumps etc and no issues

Oh, I can imagine it. I was walking along a country road, a very short distance from home, when two large dogs ran off their property and attacked me, drawing blood from my leg. A woman came out of her house, called the two dogs inside, and slammed the door shut, leaving me standing in the road bleeding. I assume I was in violation for walking past her house on a public road. Not to worry, the sheriff had a nice little chat with her, and when she swore the dogs had been vaccinated, he drove straight to the vet's office and was told she was lying. The dogs didn't have to be put down after their quarantine, but now they are chained up, all day, every day.

Hey, maybe that's the answer for those kids?

I did something to my own car that I just remembered, basically a Craftsman Jack stand failed on me due to operator error or manufacturers, I don't know.

It bent two of my jack welds to hold up the car, one is bad enough it actually caused my front fender to stick out. (If you look it's actually attached to the front fender, who knew?) It's very noticeable to my OCD ass.
