Default Who's car has been keyed or broken into?

I have been seeing tons of these threads latley. Im just wondering how many of you have either been broken into or keyed or not at all.

I never had been keyed or broken into either the mustang or my old 99 F150. I don't get how people get keyed all the time.

never been keyed or broken into, hope it never happens. when i was a kid, my dad had a plymouth laser. it was red, and he had a front vanity plate that said "can't touch this." well, it got keyed. he was going through some weird "i'm getting old" phase, i guess.

Spook hasn't been keyed...yet. I'll go on a murdering spree if he does, haha.

However, some asshole did spit a nice, big wad of newly chewed Juicy Fruit gum on the windshield when I parked in a parking lot further from the building I work at. Now, I park right behind the building and no one can see him. I work in a 'shady' area in the middle of a downtown district with a lot of different types of people. I've caught people looking at him, walking around him, peering into the windows, and it pisses me off. You can tell when someone is admiring your car and when someone is... not admiring it.

I think the type of person that would key someone else's car is a person that is either vengeful and is trying to get back at the person who owns the car and/or is jealous because the person has something they don't.

It's sad that it happens. Some of us spend a lot of time, money, and put a lot of love into our 'Stangs, and some fucker spits on it/keys it/breaks into it, just because they're jealous. That's why I want to have a special compartment underneath mine that holds midgets with machine guns that jump out and spray the area with bullets when anyone other than a few authorized people get too close to him.

well i think my car has been keyed but its in a really wierd spot. Its about 16 inches long on the rear bumper but about 13 inches of it is directly on 1 of the edges of the bumper so u cant even really see it. Seems like a dumb place to key a car but i dont know what else it would be from.


I have also come out of the wall before and someone had poured nacho cheese all over the car. PPl are just stupid

My v6 was broken into twice, and that kid is now in jail for a long time. I've never been keyed or had any othr troubles, but that could have something to do with my personality and what I did in highschool. We had to write daily journals in English class, and stand up and read them every once-in-a-while for a grade, One of mine was about what I'd to do anyone who I caught doing something malicious to my car. Lol, I threw in a "smash your face in with a cinder block, and a line about slowly roll over your kneecaps", and no worries. I was also voted "most dependable" so maybe people beleived I'd do it hahaha, I would.

I think people who take up three spots for their car deserve to get it keyed. If they are so worried about it they should just park further out like the rest of us.

Nothings really ever happened to my car but i've been best friends with the same 2 people for my whole life, and one of them had a z28. He loved it but me and my friend used to play practical jokes on him and he never knew it was us. Once we covered the entire thing in saran wrap. One time we drew penises all over the windows with window chalk, and another time we covered the entire car in bologna. The entire car.

It was funny watching his reactions from a distance.

My current car has never had anything done to it...
But someone keyed my old V6 across the wing (like a 16inch line, I buffed the shit out of it and it was pretty much fine) The mark wasn't deep, like one would expect it to be...
Someone stole my valve stem caps off of my Audi though, wtf? They were just black metal... nothing too special

I've never had it keyed or broken in to but some one did leave their fast food trash on the hood. We came out of the movie and there she sat with trash all over her. I went into ultra-bitch mode, I can't imagine if some had actually caused damage to her. My husband said no more leaving her alone after dark.

The worst damage I ever witnessed happened to two people in my husbands old unit. The guy was married and seeing one of the girls in the unit, his wife found out. Hell hath no fury!! I'm not sure how many of you will know what naptha is, but it is one of the powerful solvents I have ever used. The wife poured naptha, actually drizzled it all over his mustang and her neon. It ate the paint off down to the metal every where it touched. It was awful, deserved, but awful.

Nothing has been done to MY car, But my wifes Concorde got it good last year.

My wife wasn't too upset cause she got a new window the same day, no deductable either. I was pissed off, but we've had a few of those smashed windows last year in my neighborhood. I got all new motion sensor lights all around, I had older lights before but they must have been brave.
My stang was in the front yard untouched. And I guarantee if that happened to my car I would be still looking for who did it.. I still keep a watch cause I'm a night owl anyway. An asswhooping will ensue.. then I'll ask why you did it..

where im from, people know your car. if they know who you are and what u can do, they wont touch it. theres ALWAYS a civic that get stolen and striped every night. all these ricers that the peopel in my area dont give a dam about. when ever you see anything with some potential you can have your windows down and your top down with a dimond ring in the front seat. your car will be safe. but dont try this if you are in toronto.....strictly eastern europe :P

Haven't had it keyed or broken into..not saying it'll never happen...

My car stays right infront of my window at the apartment complex.. and its so close that if someone hit my window i'd hear it very easily... (i'm about 15 foot form my car)

I did have a kid drawing or writing shit on the hood last summer...its dusty around here..so ya..

I'd walk out and there'd be writing on it..

So I posted out and watched..and sure enough this kid..probably about 15 or so started scribbling random shit into it..me being 18..chased his ass down..grabbed my duster and made him dust it

The trunk lid area right above my left side rear brake light was keyed about 2 weeks after I bought the car BRAND NEW! I left work and noticed it! I dont have any enemies at work so I think it was a random act....

Funny this subject came up. Last week some sunglasses got stolen from my wifes car. I would always tell her not to leave them in the car. Never ever go to Hialeah.

Personally, I haven't had those kind of problems.

My son's Stang was vandalized two weeks before he graduated from UMass Dartmouth. The bahstids keyed the paint down to the primer on the driver's side, ripped off the pony emblems from the fenders. and stole two of his center caps from his wheels.

Insurance covered the repairs.
