Are you sure you weren't taking up two spots? If you were then it would be a justified keying according to some of the members on this site.
Seriously, I'm really sorry to hear about your damage. It's a shame that some people are so full of hate that they feel the need to do things like this.

Yeah, I agree with the others here. I've been around clubs for years, DJ'ed in them for years...BAD idea taking a nice car to a club unless you have it valet parked. Even using the valet is questionable, but at least people are around. People get into fights, try to show off, walk around drunk...you're just asking for trouble.
Sorry to hear.
Sorry to hear.

I personally wouldn't park my Vette anywhere near a club. My wife's friend parked her Beamer on a busy street near a club with the top down as well (not the brightest move). Someone took it upon themselves to p-i-s-s all over her interior.
Sorry to hear it was keyed. If there is any bright side look at it this way, it can be fixed. The wife's friend has major problems with her insurance on this and a car she can't drive, can't get the smell out. Nice.

I was Cheese Burgered one night. They didn't expect me to do a 180 that fast. As I caught up with them they blew through the red light and side swiped a car. I got the arrow and stopped at the car wash on the corner to hose the mess off my windshield and watched from afar. I could see them pointing me out to the cops as I washed the car. Never got a visit. I would have loved to hear just what they were saying.

It stinks that you can't drive your Corvette where you want without having to worry about somebody vandalizing it.
Sorry and good luck with the repairs.

I just threw up a little in my mouth.
That absolutely makes me sick! I cant imagine coming out to find my beloved Vette violated.
You know that person was just jealous though.
I hope they do a good job on the repair and remember "What comes around goes around" I wish bad juju on that guy!

Dude, you took it to a club.
In a perfect world you could take a nice sports car anywhere and not have to worry about people destroying it. Unfortunately there are just some places where it's not a good idea to take a shiny sports car. A place full of incredibly drunk people is one of them. I never take mine to bars or clubs. Don't get me wrong. No one deserves getting their car keyed for no reason. That sucks. Hope you get it fixed.

Very timely. I was debating about taking my Vette to the South Side Fri night for a friends birthday celebration at a club.....I'll take the DD.
Sorry what happened to your car. Justifiable homicide in my book.
