Thanks for all the support guys

I have no problems or enemies so I know it was just random punk kids trying to look like badasses or whatnot.

The complex doesnt have a camera system, its not a super upscale place but its also not a ghetto place.

Why a hardtop? To possibly prevent things like this from happening again. I also rarely have the top down, only at night sometimes. I didnt buy this car cause it was a convertible.

Im not really sure how I didnt notice until I drove away. I was with my girl friend and we both didnt really think of anything of it. Theres debris all over the car.

 

If you are a top down rare person I would go with a hard top for sure. There are good aero gains by doing this and it makes the car feel more finished and more coupe like when its on.

Better music
Better aero
More finished looking

I vote YES on the hard top

 

That absolutely sucks, but at least it can be repaired. Did they cut the top, put the fireworks inside and set them off? Amazing what some a**holes will do.

 

I'm sorry to hear that dude. I hope everything works out for you. What complex did this happen in? A good friend of mine lives in Clearwater (neiborhood behind KFC on Gulf to Bay), and I go up there like every other weekend and spend the night. I was always iffy leaving my car parked on the side of the road up there at night. I agree with the hardtop thing. I REALLY want one aswell... like you, I didn't buy the car for the convertible. Oh, but the way... I STILL got those Kosei K1's I bought off of you back in the day (STILL bronze).

I'll go mike tyson on their asses

 

Sorry to hear about your car man. It's such a sweet ride too. I can't believe someobody would actually go that far. Hope your recovery is a quickie. Later.

 

Man, that sucks!!

At least they didn't steal your seats like the bastards did with mine.

I recommend Cabrio world tops, but get one w/ a rear defroster. I was a cheap ass and got one w/o and now I regret it. (since you don't have a garage I'm guessing)

You can then get it installed by C&S Auto Interiors on 49th St. in Clearwater. They did mine and they do good work.

PM if you need more info....

 

The hardtop won't stop the vandalism, just change the style... check our my recent thread where they keyed my car from end to end.

But I have to ask... how did you NOT notice that gaping hole on the driver's side when getting in?!

 

Dude, when did that happen?!

 

vandalism

I hope this makes you feel better, Im up to nearly 10grand in vandalism, Im gonna have to sell my car now just cause I cant stop the vandals..
