Default again the curse continues

looks like i spoke out of turn earlier, you would never guess what happened to me last night


wife decides to close garage door with the rear end of my car hanging out. she clips the bumper with the inside door handle , one big gash from top to bottom ,, errrrr, hey its my wife , what am i gonna do , make her pay for it , its still coming from my acct , the thing that burns me is our huge meet/show is sun and i was so ready for it , oh well , could have been worse , the car could have been 6 inches further out and snapped off my wing and dent the trunk lid


and the curse continues , has anyone been the bmw or mercedes forums to see if anyone overthere is chanting >>>>>kill lexus >>>>kill lexus >>>>kill lexus or working some vodooo or something



btw , this happened minutes before leaving to meet with eight other guys to finalize the details for our big show on sunday...


Guys there seems to be no escaping this , so just go out side and kick your tires yourself , hopefully that will throw the demons off

It could have been worse (head on collision or hitting a animal or something!)

Reminds nme of what happened to me:

The week after I got my car, I was picking my girl up at the bus station. I was sitting in the car when I heard a impact to my left, I looked up and a car was hitting my mirror (luckily it gave!!) the lady then stopped, turned the wheel to right and began reversing!!!! Right into my qtr panel!!!!! I yelled STOP and she stopped just as her car began to touch mine. Result: minor scratch on the mirror, surface scratches on the paint that I polished out! Imagine that, welcomed to my new GS by the damn CL curse!!!!

Ouch. That hurts. Not sure what it is, but the day after my fuel pump, tow bill fiasco, I ran over a large air compressor nozzle on the freeway and it punctured my new Yokohama rear tire (the one that was a result of another issue). Result: A new tire as it could not be patched. I have just come to the conclusion that since our cars are so dead reliable, it was just our time for some type of grief to occur. Me, I have some more goodies for the GS waiting for install. Not even bad chee is going to get me down nor should it anyone else here. March on.
