Happened to me - coffee shop too.

Apparently the same people that are protesting are considering
vette owners the 1% and making us objects to lash out at.
These same people seem to frequent coffee shops.

My wife had a good idea they did something and let them get away
before telling me. She knew what would have gone down.
I say that just makes her an accomplice.

Every time I park my car somewhere there are fingerprints all over the body and greasy face/forehead prints on the windows. Better than a $6500 trip to the body shop though, which happened a few months ago.

At least coffee and fingerprints wipe off

I was at a Subway. Someone squirted ketchup and mustard on the hood. I just wonder what motivates someone to do something like this. They probably thought its was really funny..

And my wife doesn't understand why I'm hesitant to drive and park my vette in the closest up front parking space or go to Walmart.

I'm sorry that happened to you. I had a 2005 vette and my neighbor, the deliquent, put out his cigarette on the hood. It took some work to get that little ring off the paint.

OP, your anger and frustration is completely understandable. It says a lot about the d!ckhead responsible for doing that to your car. Out of curiosity, did you ask the idiots standing there what they thought was so funny?

while I don't suspect them of doing the deed, I looked towards them because I wanted to ask them if they know anything but they were getting into their car as I approached and left without giving me a chance to speak to them

Mine was ketsup at an Outback Resturant on my red 06.
Funny how if I drove an old Citation with rust and the headliner hanging down this would not happen.

Sorry this happened to you OP.

This is why when I do drive the vette places I always park way out far away from everyone. Of course, **** like this could still happen, even out where I park and in nice places.

I think if I caught someone doing that I would beat the living **** out of them, then again, I might have passed that stage in life. I hope I never have to find out.

I was in Target for a few things just last week. Parked all by myself way back in the lot in one stall. You would have to drive out of your way to get to it. I was opening the door for my son and there on the ground 3 ft from the door was a 20 inch steel metal hacksaw blade. It was not there when I went in and I was in the store 10 min tops. My guess is that the person drove his work truck by the car and threw the blade out the window while he drove by. The blade either flew over the car car or didn't make it to the car as they fortunately missed altogether. I was lucky this time.

For me it is a disappointment in what society has become.
Regards,
Scott

Unfortunately they don't teach respecting someone's personal property these days. If I saw my kids do that they will wash cars for donations to a worthy cause all weekend.

Disappointment is an understatement. I just don't get it. You work hard for something nice and some POS resents it for whatever reasons. WTF?

Exactly! I was parked out in the boonies, as usual, and some a-hole got out of his car, he had something in his hand, hit my GT 500 for no reason at all, a guy (a fellow Veteran) saw it happen but couldnt get a plate. It gouged the door pretty bad, $700 ... later..... I have been lucky with the vette so far, other than some a-hole putting a cigarette butt through the slightly cracked window (thank good ness it didnt burn anything, just stank it up), I just don't get it.
