Hi Laurie!

I've seen better. Got back from the Vettes and Jets in TX this morning to find my HD car cover strewn around the car and hanging on by the drivers outside mirror only. Closer look and the rear window is smashed through, glass, rocks, dirt, water and ants EVERYWHERE in the car.



Thought it was vandals at first, but evidently a really bad hail storm came through while I was gone, and 76 other cars just in that parking lot alone incurred major damage like mine. Between them and the rental car agencies losing over 500 cars due to damage, was an expensive weekend.

I'm already out $800 that I hadn't planned on spending, and more to come I'm sure.



How are you?

Oh water got into the car and into the console, etc. Even the HUD and whole dash had schmutz all over it. They will probably have to pull the windshield in order to get all the dirt, sand, rocks and glass out of there.


The body panels had pings all over them, estimator thinks they will probably reshoot the whole car since it will be very difficult to match.

Several areas you could see were scrapes and pops on the finish. This car was immaculate when I got her.

I'm already out $800 that I hadn't planned on spending, and more to come I'm sure.



How are you?
Hope your insurance covers it.

Very sorry to hear about the car, Paul!

What a way to return home ... that sucks bad! I hope you're able to get her back on the road soon!

OMG! that sucks. I feel for you......just thinking of my car in that state. I don't think I'd even consider owning a car like these if I didn't have inside parking. It will probably take a month or more to get it back, I'm sure.

Morning everyone! Looks like a lot of folks are getting an early start today.

60% chance of storms here, but the temp will be down somewhat.
