Just for the record, I hate Smart cars; I just find little humor in this. Those who think it's "funny" or "hijinx" would, I'm guessing, be slightly less philosophical about things if their Boxster was turned over - or keyed - or otherwise damaged by a few kids. This is destruction of private property, plain and simple.

As said earlier, every single one of my vehicles has been vandalized at one time or another. This includes my Boxster. Of course I personally would not be "oh thank God they broke my windows and keyed my paint those darned kids! They got me good this time!"

That being said, life happens and while in the moment it may make you angry, if some kids flipped my car in a few years it would make a great story to tell friends while drinking. (keying, tire popping and the like not every exotic on the shenanigans scale... car flipping however.) The real losses here will be soaked up by insurance and life will inevitably go on.

Karma will take its natural course over those kids lifetime... No worries.

In the mean time I hope their caught and forced into hard labor to repay their debt.

Right! Its more like forced into an extended stay at the prison Hilton to read books, watch TV, learn from other criminals, text on their cell phones and get 3 meals a day for doing absolutely nothing.
