Are there parts from James Dean's Porsche in my car?

Got a parking spot right in front of the barbershop today. The owner was out in front looking down the street where a cop was tending to a fender-bender. It's a one-way street and I parked on the left curb. He said "Lucky spot!" as I got out of the car and headed into the shop. I got another lucky break as the girl that usually cuts my hair was free and I didn't have to wait. I'm in the chair about three minutes when the owner tells me to come outside. He points to the passenger side of my car which now has a nice crease from mid-door to about a foot into the quarter panel. An older woman was coming down the street the wrong way and the barbershop owner had waved her to turn around. She did a K-turn and took out my car in the process. I've had the car three years. The first week I had it, someone put a really deep ding in my driver's door. Two years ago I was returning from a nice trip upstate when I got stuck in bumper to bumper traffic and a freak hail storm came out of nowhere. Last year an aluminum ladder that had been hanging on a wall in my garage for more than 20 years came crashing down on the car. A few months later I hit a lawn chair on the Garden State Parkway. I've had many, many cars over the last 42 years and not one of them ever sustained any damage. James Dean....is that you?

So sorry to hear of your loss ... time to buy a 550

Thanks. It's not a loss, just a major annoyance.

Wow, thats exactly why Im scared to drive mine. Sorry to hear.

I had a Subaru station wagon for 12 years. The odometer quit at 140,000 miles and I drove it another 4 years. Nobody ever hit it or left a ding, and I never cared where I parked it. This thing is a damage magnet.

Sigh.

From my experience it's too dangerous to drive them, park them, or store them in a garage. The best thing to do is take a photo of it and look at it from time to time. Place your car in a nondescript crate and have it stored in the same government warehouse as the Ark of the Covenant, where it can be watched over and studied by top men. Top. Men.

this is worse then my nightmare...you just need to watch the 30 seconds, then I don't know what the camera man is doing after that parked Porsche hit by bus Bus Slams Into Parked Porsche - YouTube

Well done sir! I was thinking about driving mine to work tomorrow, but I am glad you talked some commonsense back into me.

Don't sweat the small stuff. Here is a pic of my Boxster 6 weeks ago. Rear ended while parked in front of my house. Total loss.

Damn, that sucks. Too many stupid people in the world.
