Apparently, the worst thing that's ever happened to mine was when some scumbag dealer decided it would be a good idea to flush the trans with Matic D.

The LED mirrors are rare, a staff member made i believe 20 sets of mirrors with benz LED turn signals in them. that was 4 years ago though i was lucky to buy a used set off of a member a few months ago

my car is 6MT FTMFW

A few things...

-About a month after i got it, a friend was pissed at me and threw my car in park while i was driving...

-A cooler fell off the shelf in my garage and cracked the paint on the right side of my front bumper.

-Screwing around in the snow last winter, i put it into a snow bank and cracked the paint on the left side of the bumper...

Someone stole my car (towed) and dropped it off about 5 miles away and decided to steal my wheels all while messing up the back bumper and a few other dings and scratches here and there.

Some kids egged it and it dripped down into the cracks between the window and the trim.

I backed into a palm tree stump.

I was going through a narrow drivethru and curbed almost the whole circumference of my back wheel.

2003.5 sedan-
-rear ended 3 separate times. (twice at red light, once at gas station)
-van reversed into me at a car wash (right after installing nismo aero kit)
-t-boned by a subaru making an illegal turn
-slid sideways around stalled car on freeway... twisted unibody- totaled car.

2005 sedan-
-rear ended twice (both times in stop and go traffic)
-hit & run in grocery store parking lot.. destroyed rear quarter panel

current coupe-
-side swiped by Lincoln navigator outside my work.
-entire car oversprayed with brown paint by lazy contractors in parking structure.

so far... coupe has given me the least trouble. my sedans seem to have been cursed.

I know I'm forgetting some stuff.... this is the 'short' list

2003 coupe.
worst thing to happen to it:
i bought it. and i beat it up on a daily basis. going over bumps. scratching on parking blocks. being really rough with it. I just discovered that my fender has some folds in it and i have absolutely no idea where they came from.

yea thats not bad. not like my bro who totaled 2 cars before he was 20

Oh Wow what a thread...

03 coupe.

driving on 15 South, guy in front of me runs over some metal object.

so small it goes under my car (even with the low drop) and rips my fuel line apart.

smell of gas immediately, engine shut down, felt lucky to get to the shoulder before a spark ignited my @$$...All with a FRESH fill up!

Another guy hits the same metal object shortly after me and pulls up about 100 yards from my car on the shoulder near the 60. his tire is just popped. my damage = about 4k.

Insurance covered the road hazard. Still....what an experience.

Driving.....turned off VDC for some fun, then went inside to get some food, came out it was freezing rain. Went to a stop light, felt like hearing my exhaust little more, hit a patch of ice, did a 360 and went sea-saw onto a curb, luckily hit nobody.

Drove my mom to Wholefoods, parked my car perfectly, and my mom starts yelling that I'm too far out and I have space to scoot up....I argue back and she gives me the eye, I then let go of the brakes SLIGHTLY, and hear a scrape all on my front lip.
