My wonderful week.

So my Poor RA witch is 2 weeks old. in the past 3 days. Hit twice and got a ticket 91mph in a 70. Man you really don't realize how fast the car gets moving. Compared to my honda this things a dream well minus the speeding ticket wrote me up for 5 over.. lucky me.

Everytime the car was hit it was in a parking lot. the second one witch happened today is costing me $455.00 small dent in the dogleg. Other one someone turned into a parking stop a little tight and got my bumper.

Oh.. and is it me or does the paint seem to flake off a little to easy?

Yeah man....the car REALLY gets up to speed pretty quick...and you don't realize it.

As far as the paint thing goes...I have no idea what you guys are talkin about. The RSX I had had some SERIOUSLY bad paint. It was dubbed the "stone chip" edition it was so bad.

yeah guy. had the dent looked at $455 to fix it. I have'nt priced the rear bumped form hit #1 cuz I will just replace it with a kit. but hell.. the car is 2 weeks old and has 1000 miles :*( and now it has battle wounds.

I really do think this paint is ****ty.. witch worries me a lot. I traded in an 01mustang. It was hit slightly 3 times. when I traded it in they didn't even notice to scuffs and small dents because the paint looks almost perfect in the spots. weird? I dunno. Maybe I'll look into a new paint job if it really starts freaking me out.
