Angry Well, so much for the holiday spirit!!!

I went to visit family for 3 nites with my wife and kids. We took our minivan and left my IS at home. I returned to find that some scumbag keyed the passenger front and rear door and the right rear quarter panel. What is up with people??

Sorry to hear about the damage...too many haters out there.

Is keeping the IS garaged an option?

Thanks, it is now. I spent the last 3.5 hours cleaning it out. We moved in 5 months ago and had too many boxes with stuff we didn't really need. It won't happen again, at least not on my property.

that sucks.. but yes.. there are too many haters out there.. they don't understand that some people love their cars very much.. and take a hit in their finances to be able to afford the car that they want.. a hobby of sort..

That's just effin wrong... the culprit deserves to be beaten within an inch of his life with a bat.

I get pissed from door dings (just got one on my '99 LS which I purchased a month ago and was PERFECT when I got it).. but keying is INTENTIONAL.

People have nothing to gain...it's not like they stole your rims... I just don't get it!

That blows... sorry to hear about it!

America... the only country where people store $1731 worth of crap in their garage and park $90,000 worth of cars in the driveway.
I actually manage to stuff three cars in my two-car garage.

Get yours in the garage ASAP!!!!!!!!
