Just take pleasure in knowing that they will probably never amount to anything in there life and that it is probably already ****y and may even get worse. And even if they do become succesfull they may even be so lucky to get keyed too!

I know it sucks, but you have to take the attitude that **** happens and not wonder why, it will only eat away at your happiness. Just let it go, I know the feeling.

I remember a professor saying one time, "how can you talk to me about not having money when all you kids drive are BMWs, Mercedes, Lexus, etc. when I drive a regular pick up truck..." it's the professors who are jealous

Wow you're inconsiderate. It's NOT about money, it's about the idea of something you own gets vandalize.

I don't want to even look at the car. I will likely have to get the door resprayed and given that it's starfire pearl, it'll likely be pretty hefty. Life just blows right now...
If it's a private facility, they bear the responsibility of protecting the car, then. Are there signs saying that you park at your own risk when you enter it? If not, then politely tell the security company to ensure that they do not destroy the evidence that they have committed to retain by accepting the responsibility of a private parking lot. Then explain to them that a court order can be issued if they refuse to cooperate with the police investigation. Given that the respray will likely cost over $500, that's malicious destruction of property and vandalism over $100, and the police can get a subpoena for the footage if the company purported to you that they have it.

I'm not a lawyer, I just play one on the interwebs. Having had a car victimized in a parking lot myself, I learned a few things. Good luck, mang, and sorry to hear about it, but the bottom line is that you're okay and the car will be, too. Keep up the good work - those who appreciate it number far more than those who don't, I'm sure.

That just blows.

Nothing much we can say to make it better for next few days. However, a good body shop will get her back to a pristine condition. Hang in there, Chief.

Evil begets evil.
That'll come around to bite him sooner or later.
The only regret is that you probably won't see him get his, but believe me, he'll get it.

Supraman, you'll feel better once she's all painted up and pretty again. In the meantime, touch it up and try not to think any more about it.

Just livid to hear this story. Many of us have had this happen to them, including myself, nothing like the feeling of being raped ( victim) and not catching the bastard who did this.

People for one reason or another, just have no respect for other people's property. Hope your able to acquire the mall video and catch the bastard.

This is my worst nightmare as well. I parked at a mall last night, far away from everyone else. But then your car sticks out, but if you park with everyone else, you need to worry about careless people throwing doors open. You can't win.

It doesn't help we are in a bad economy when people are struggling with mortgage payments and aren't even buying Chevys, let alone luxury cars.

Hi Doc,

Some malicious jealous idiot did it to my F too! (not as much as yours). I know how you feel. I hate that it happened. I'll have to talk to the Lexus dealer how much it cost to fix the scratch.

Would you, Doc, curse that maliciuos idiot bad dream and nightmare that he'd be unable to sleep at night for the whole month! And when he does fall asleep may your IS F run him down so he would not be able to sleep for a month or more(?).

How do like my curse, Doc?
