Bought two days ago, clay barred waxed and pulled steering lock fuse.

Ran "Kool-it" through my AC evaporator.
Sure hope it works because it was a PIA.

Washed and waxed. 2nd last wax before I park her for the season. Tentatively Nov 4 when I change the oil lol

i was comp'd two nights at a casino on the Gulf Coast. Valet parked the car. When we had the car retrieved from garage for a night out on the town, I noticed a 3" ding on passenger door. Security filed a report and we'll see what happens. I feel bad going after the casino after being comp'd our whole stay when a simple PDR for $80 will take care of the problem..... Will probably just decline the settlement...

I'm a little pig-headed about things like this. Just because you were comp'd does not give them the right to damage your car. Two separate things IMO.

That's a bummer, but given the cost of body repairs on average these days I can see why they would comp the stay. The wife and I took the Z to Fort Walton for the long weekend. Had a good crowd of 65 family members this year!! I have to say I was pleased by how well the Z traveled on a 4 1/2 hour trip. Gonna step it up a bit and shoot for a 14 hour drive to northern Illinois in the spring! Hope everyone has enjoyed the Holliday!

I was already comp'd the stay BEFORE they dinged the Z.... That's why I'm hesitant to accept whatever settlement they come up with. Also, the casino manager is a good friend.

Personally, I'd be pissed.

If the casino manager is a good friend, he should understand the issue and not have a problem resolving said issue for you on his/their dime.

He offered to fix it. I guarantee you the $ amount of what he comp'd me far exceed the $ amount to PDR the ding out...

Mad: Did yo get much rain? It poured in Gulfport and the Z handled well. Rained so hard, it powered off the love bugs!

We drove down last Thursday morning and returned last night late to avoid the mobile Alabama traffic jam today. Didn't see much rain while we were on the road. Managed to time it just right to miss the small storms last night. So now I have to scrape off the love bugs the old fashioned way... Hahaha

I'm about to wash the Z once I destroy some bacon and eggs.

TreeSemdyZee · 09-05-2016, 03:53 PM

Of course, my first mental picture when I read this was of the scene in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" when the parking attendants took out the Ferrari.
