Not even a 1000 miles on it and someone has already backed in to it.

Just a reminder that people suck and don’t care about others things. I watched them do while at DQ and they just drove off as I was running out to stop them.

just keep a look out
Sorry this happened to you man. Time to invest in an always-on motion sensing dash cam. They stay on all the time and only record when it detects motion so it won't drain your battery.

I got rear ended exactly 3 months into ownership, in fact, I'd just put my new Nismo wheels on. Luckily it was only cosmetic as she was going just a few mph at a stop light, but I used it as an excuse to pull the trigger on a Nismo front bumper swap...my logic was if they were matching paint for the rear bumper anyway, it should be the same as the front, right? :rolleyes:

Anyway, I hope you have a better experience than I did. Ended up having to have it sprayed twice, the second time the body shop pulled my entire front end clear bra so they could blend into the hood and fenders.

I just went over 8k miles on the way to work this morning. I have a parking placard, so no one is near my Z except when driving. I don't ever take it to Walmart/Grocery/Lowes ... that is why I have a 1998 K1500 ...
I do have a dashcam that I am not allowed to use on the road to work ...
I use as a daily driver ... my 5k service was more than a year ago ... 2k more for the next service.
I told the wife ...
"If you scratch/dent/hit my car in the garage ... I WILL divorce you!"
She has since hit the house and the daughters SUV, but I don't have a scratch on my car. :LOL:

he may be the only person in the world with that combo. "1 of 1, I know what I got!"
Oh god, I am having flashbacks to my days on the Corvette Forums where everyone selling there Vette said it was "Rare", "One of a kind!" and thought they could justify $10k more for their asking price because they added chrome bezels around every indent the car has 🤣

I definitely don’t mind being a 1 of 1. But this car stays with me until I die or move to the next gen GTR.

Thank you all for responding. Even my wife who was with me was really frustrated.

I'm not even really sure how to go about repairing it. I don't want to do an insurnace thing because than it'll have a mark on its carfax, and I worry about this particular paint color not coming out right if I were to have it repaired at a body shop.
Find a quality body shop and let them match the paint properly, a lot of shops don’t report to carfax, but if they do, just keep photos of the damage with date stamps, when you sell it you can show the buyer why it was refinished. (I have 35yrs in the auto repair industry and we have clients that do this all the time)

This one is fortunately pre-painted. :)

Can’t wait to see it installed! Btw you must know Cocina Azul, that’s one of my favorite places, great queso and ribeye tacos.
