IT IS ONLY A F...ING CAR...get over yourself...if you are affraid to get it dented..leave it in the garage! And yes there are inconsiderate people...but they can also drive an $140,000 SL500 like I had they other day....it is not what they drive..but if they use their brains.......I just think that when you drive a sportscar you should even be a little nicer to other people, because you are the lucky one!

All the people who take care about their cars have to run the risk of 'going out of the garage'. If you don't want to be dented anymore, try to protect your car with a piece of cardboard box. Some people who parks their luxury cars in the same place into a parking, are provided of this "element". So that, if someone parks close to you, there's no fear to be dented

well put Nicholaas, I couldn't agree more. last thing I want to do is lord it over others that I have an expensive car: it's just bad Karma and what goes around, comes around. IMHO

Yeah, I agree with what everybody else said!

Basically what you're saying is that you're a better person just because they own an old Toyota and didn't quite park right and you own a Porsche that you wash 3-5 times a week? Come on, you're pretty full of yourself. Maybe the car is owned by a single mom that works 3 jobs just to put food on her kids' table and that's the only car she can afford. Maybe it's owned by a military vet that is all screwed up from all the stuff he/she has seen fighting battles in foreign lands. Maybe it's owned by an elderly man or woman that worked their whole life and now is struggling to survive on social security and still has to work to make ends meet. There's so many people that could own that car, but whoever it is, they're obviously a better person than you.

Plus, putting a dollar for a car wash on her windshield shows your ignorance - a good wash is at least 12 bucks.

You should have wrote her a check.

None of us here are saints, but most of us would not post something like this either.

IMO, Vulture996, do not post again on this thread and let this thread die a sloooow painful death and before you know it, most everyone will forget this thread ever happened and life begins anew.

BTW: You %@&#ed up with what you did in the parking lot, but I am sure you are more than aware of that now

I admited on a few occasions the situation could have been handled better. Relax guys, no one was hurt and the person made out with a dollar that I should have kept, lol.

I agree. The reason that I believe so many posters responded to this thread is because the utterly arrogant and insensitive behavior described by Vulture perfectly fits the stereotype that so many people have about Porsche owners.
