Angry anyone else have a target on their car?

I have a target on my 04 sedan. Four hit and runs, (although I think one was a runaway shopping cart), all in 21000 miles. It seems like every time I drive this car I have some a$$hole hit it and then leaves. I am starting to think people are either jealous or just don't like Japanese cars. Only two of the accidents happened in my home town two of them, (one tonight) have happened in different states. Anyone else have this bad luck or is it just me?

I had the same thing happen to my '05 sedan also last month, the front bumper is messed up....I went to a computer shop to fix my PC, and when I came back....voila..

Dealer said they need to keep it for a week in order to paint the whole thing and it would cost about $230 to fix it. I do get a lot of scratches and the occasional door scratches, sometimes when you park you do not realize that you're parking next to a retard.

That is strange I have had my 05 G35 for about 22 months. Not a mark on it(Knocks on wood). I am also the person who parks 100 yards from the store in the last spot that doesn't have any cars for atleast twenty spaces. I guess that saves my car and I get some excerise at the same time.

glad to know I'm not alone

Good news for my G, last night the guy that just hit it came to the front desk of the hotel we're at and fessed up. The desk called me and I called the cops back. Turns out it was another guest. The cops get an A+ for their effort, they made several extra patrols and walked the lot looking for cars with damage. The guy fessed up about 5 minutes after their last pass through the lot. I guess he knew he would get caught and figured it would be better if he came clean. Maybe this will change my luck, but I'm still thinking about trading it on an 06, I bet I could get a smokin deal on one. I really like the 07, but the 06's I'm betting will go cheap right now. Opinions?

Rear ended by a pick up truck 2 weeks ago, also hit and run. Extensive rear end damage. It's still being repaired.

If you had some of these, EVERYONE would know your car was a target
