Vandalized... :(

[23109VC]

that's not a theft.

that is one of two things:

1) flat out vandalism of a very personal nature. YOU were a direct target of payback. Either someone you know that hates you, the boyfriend of some girl you are now sleeping with, or something similar...

2) insurance fraud. People with cars that have issues, and they want them all fixed up or totalled, will intentionally trash their own car then play it off as vandalism.

I'm not accusing you of fraud - I'm just saying that it seems like one of the two.

Insurance companies are very leery of fraud these days - and these kinds of incidents are often fraud masked as vandalism - I only say that so you are prepared for possible tough questions by the insurance company.

honestly - your car is likely totalled. all that leather to be fixed and replaced... on a car that is 10+ years old... odds are they will total it out and pay you off.

I am very sorry. My bro in law is black, bought a brand new Vette, and within a month of owing it, he came out to his g/f's parking lot to find swastikas scratched into almost every panel.... He was UPSET to say the least. while this isn't a hate crime - someone hates you a LOT...

i'd at the least be worried about who it was and why they did it.

Good luck with the insurance/repairs or finding a new boxster...

If you don't know who did it - and can't provide any reasonable clue as to who did it - while this may very well be an unusual random crime - be prepared for a skeptical insurance company.
