My wifes a teacher and that kind crap happens every year Last year I bought her a brand new Power retractable hardtop Miata and come Halloween it gets the milk shake treatment
Disrespetful little Sh-ts!!! Some of the other teachers got the egging so I guess it could have been worse. On holidays like that I get NO sleep as I'm up every other hour checking on the cars. I feel your pain.......

I don't understand it, either. People just do stuff because they can and they think it's funny. No respect for people's property. If they had any idea how fanatical ZR-1 owners were or if it were done to their car, watch out! I've been very fortunate so far. Sorry to hear about it dude. I want to meet up with you sometime soon. Be good. Enjoy the Z! Red goes with black, right?

Affirmative. Red goes with black. Also with yellow, white, green, blue and a handful of other colors produced between 1990-1995. They've even been known to congregate together in large numbers from time to time.

Don't forget ATOMIC ORANGE. The Atomic Z goes with (and past) most all colors.

That's a real bummer -- sorry to hear it but I guess it could have been worse. I once had my car keyed -- similar situation to yours. Talk about being enraged! Not too much longer after that a friend of mine who had recently purchased a brand new Cobra also gets his car keyed. Sometimes I think some people are just jealous and if they can't have something nice, why not ruin someone else's nice things. Both of the above situations happened in Houston by the way.

Just remember this is exactly the type of behavior that is deemed acceptable by many since you "have".

The media has been very successful in creating a class warfare. In a lot of peoples minds you deserve bad things because you have something they do not. These people can justify any action against you because you are the enemy. They care not that your vette is 20 years old, and now costs less than a new middle of the road car.

A Vette is a Vette, and you are a rich person who deserves punishment.

Angry One of these days...

...I'm going to catch some SOB in the act, and THAT Ck Skr is going to pay for all the times I didn't catch anyone, like the time I got keyed (once on my former black 95 Vette) or something was stolen or someone opened their door against the side of my car!!

Some years ago, some SOB bought a bottle of brake fluid at a K-mart, filled his reservoir while parked next to me, and set the @$$##$ bottle on the hood of my car. Apparently, he spilled a little and it ran down the side of the bottle. As a result I had perfect "ring" on the hood where the color paint was dissolved, right down to the primer. I don't think that was necessarily intentional; just really ignorant...Nothing a kick in the family jewels wouldn't fix.

Well, at least it came off your paint OK. That's a good thing!
