I think this is the saddest day of my life. It was around 12noon. I just got out of KFC from my lunch break. Open the KFC's door and spotting my baby glowing from the distace, parked couples of hundreds feets away from me. BAM! she just stood out(just spend 2 hours detailing her last night). Shiny Black pearl. I walked slowly toward her admiring her beauty. I start her up, pulled out, and start driving. UNFORTUNATELY, as i was driving in the parking lane. A Lexus RX300 back out in a flash. I slamed on the brake, but it was too late. I was under his bumper. To make a long story short. He killed the front passenger side. Sending my HID headlight all the way back into the tire. Bends the fender and the bumper. I jumped out of the car and scream at the bastard. *What the F**K*. I felt like tears is going to squirt out of me when i looks at my baby. Debris from the HID was everywhere. I has to pull the light out and punch the tires-guard in order to drive. What happen to his rx300? NOTHING. a scratch, little bigger than a golf ball. I felt like doing some *KARATE* on that guy ass.
Made the police reports and will bring the car to a dealer's body shop on monday. I slowly drove home a 20mph.
aren't this such a SAD story?
P.S. Gregstevens: Something about the S2K and chicago. I don't think they get along.
**Will update the situation soon.**

YoungS2K: My condolences. It seems like a lot black beauties are taking it on the chin lately. Just last weekend during our ride, g-s2k's was damaged by plywood scraps on the Massachusetts Turnpike.

The bottom line is that it is only a car and can be restored to like new condition. The inconvenience and stress sucks, however.

Good luck.

Sorry to hear about your car. I hate hearing about S2K's getting hit . Good luck with the repairs. Definitely take it to Body Werks as Greg suggested. They obviously care a great deal about our cars!

Are you serious!? Someone just ruined his car and all you can say is he should worry about his spelling? That's cold...

By the way, unless you're into magic i think it should be "spelling", not "spell"...
