Vandalized?

In the midst of having my 2 rear tires slashed on my Box S even before receiving it from the transport company, I was curious about something. Have any of you ever been the victim of vandalism on your Porsche? Sometimes it seems that people cannot help but to key nice cars or take out their frustration on the "rich", but it still really bothers me how people behave. We all come from different backgrounds and such, but I know had my car been a Pontiac, it would have not had its tires slashed...

right?

I assume because they have large knife sized stabs on both rear tires and it is sitting on the back of a transport truck.....see my other recent post..

OH YES! Driver side door was keyed with F**K YOU. Open soda bottle was thrown at it. All this while in high school. Nothing since though.

Do you have pics of your in-dash Nav?

I'm thinking about getting one of these...

Egg attack by Ninjas....had to be Ninjas because I was not more than one house away and gone for only 30 minutes. New Jersey Ninjas are very biased against Porsche.

My reccommendation: park your porsche in your garage at all times if you have one. If you dont have one its money well invested to buy one or rent one if your at an apartment. Many stories of vandalism occur while people are parked at their house or outside of their house, it can cut down 50% or more chance of your car being vandalised.
