5 months old and the car has cracked windshield, rock chips on the bumper and hood and side mirrors, deep (to the metal) on passenger door from road debris, and lots of scratches where you open the door except the driver's door 
and umm...bird **** in the interior when I had the moonroof open after detailing the car

When my Lexai was still a baby (2 weeks old), some one hit her in the mall's parking lot and took off without leaving a note. So they scartched my rear bumper and took off the paint with it

Lexus IS250 vs. power pole transformer that fell out of the sky...needless to say, the transformer won. The car was parked on a street and this is what I came back to when I returned to my car. The car was totaled after 6 weeks of Lexus saying they were going to fix it. Cracked engine block with a ton of other work that would have needed to be done. It was a sad, sad day. 
Going to buy another one as soon as I get insurance money...

Bent control arm, bent front wheel, blown out rear and front tire. <--my fault summer tires + snow = bad. Scraped front lip and small dent on rear quarter panel<---not my fault (stupid drunk nascar fans and guide rails at the car wash).
The first time I had my car dyno'd with technique and THOLE the shop owner forgot to release the e-brake...he didn't realize this until the speedometer read 120mph and smoke filled the garage. This is how I know the IS is a well engineered car. E brake still works just fine.

December '06, 6pm:
Hit a deer as it bounded across road while I was traveling home from work at 50 mph. Deer collided with driver's side of front bumper then lifted skyward OVER the top of my car and landed in a heap behind me. Poor thing died instantly. As did my car. Thankfully, no airbags deployed or personal injury, but my 350 sustained $8,000 worth of damage, as it obliterated front quarter panel, front bumper, left headlight, grille, radiator and countless other little bits and pieces.
Since then, I've decided to take a different road home at night.

Recently, something was eating through my leather (front passenger seat). There's a small hole now. Maybe a spill from something though, but don't know.
Chipped paint all over--damn semi trucks hauling sand around.
Scratches on rear quarter panel, doors.
Bent/chipped front rim.
Front bumper scrap mutliple times on steep driveway.
Chips to windshield (all over).
Exhaust tip scrape.
CD player malfunction.
Interior panel fading.
Goddamn, this car is pretty beat up.
