Post a pic of your real car

It's just electrical tape, I left my magnetic numbers at home. @Pete05 we're not allowed to have the numbers on the glass.

Kal, is that because you have to do some tests that require reversing?

Why not on the glass? It's the back window its.not like it's blocking your view or anything.

This would be the only reason I can think of why it's not allowed on the glass.

They say it is harder to see on the glass, and it is not a driving test, it is time trial runs around a track made of cones.

I'm just really hoping there's CCTV where you park your car & it shows who is responsible for this.

My last car was marked while parked opposite my work last year. Unfortunately for me, no CCTV coverage of the incident.
Hope these pics make you feel a bit better. It could've been worse

Ouch, and I happened to just start parking on the side that has cctv coverage.

At work, I park in the employee lot near the back - nobody puts any carriages there and the people parking there are sensible. Haven't had a single carriage or ding on my car.

Though, there was one time three different arses put carriages in a line under my driver's side mirror. No damage, but it was stupid windy and could've torn the mirror off. That lot has CCTV coverage too.

Yesterday I noticed new damage on both the Pandaghini's rear quarters and the back bumper. I doubt they're from work since I'm parked in a pretty safe place, so my money is on them being from college. The student car park is a mess and nobody seems to be able to drive properly. Despite the fact my car is registered to park there, has a permit, and there's CCTV facing the car park, college will just tell me where to stick it if I put in a complaint.

I used to care.. At the end of the day it ain't really worth getting worked up over.. I'm not saying people who trash other people's stuff shouldn't have a verbal (?) beating, but the car you park out in the wild will get minor damage over time and it's not worth having a heart attack over..

I've only found one of my cars damaged after being parked once, but one time in high school I was parked in my aunt's Suburban a couple minutes before class when this old F150 pulled up and attempted to back into the space next to me. I noticed he was getting a little close to the corner, but figured maybe he would stop to readjust? Nope, he bopped right into the front bumper of the Suburban. We got out and took a look, but there was no damage, so it was whatever.

I used to have an old Union 76 antenna topper on my car. One day I suddenly realized it was missing, likely plucked by some chump walking past. Makes me hesitant about putting another one on if it'll just get stolen.

Get the police involved if you have to. It would eat at me if I did nothing.

My MR2 with my old mans 91 at Carlisle imports the other weekend

First time I've ever come back to my car at an event to find some girl in a bikini modeling up against it, so there's that.

To add to the parking damage.. This happened two weeks ago, I was riding on the bike and when I got back:

Had no excuse anymore, my car needed a wash today

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

At least most of it was on the windshield.

 

[MedigoFlame]

Don't get too many other IS300s parking next to mine. This one was rather...rough.

Is that a racetrack?

New Hampshire Motor Speedway. This was in the spectator parking lot for some local drifting.

Another near 2 weeks without driving her due to changing weather with hail threats; rain in the forecast tomorrow, but said screw it, and took her out tonight. I ended up running into where the current storm is moving into place, forcing me home. I still love this car despite what we've gone through this year, and would love to start modding her towards the end if things play out well in life.

That speed & those tiny revs.
6th gear right?

The true definition of overdrive 👍

Indeed. At that speed, I think I'm around 3000 in the Acura.

The torque is still impressive at those revs as well. Just a teeny bit more throttle at 70-75, and I can pick up just enough speed quickly to pass people without downshifting.

I've just banished my former car for bad behaviour/attitude but not before spending $2.5k on it

I'm now the proud owner of a 2011 Mazda 6 (Atenza) Luxury Sport & at those revs I'd be doing around 80 km/h.

At that speed, any Aussie would be written up & have their car towed thanks to our 110 km/h maximum
