I have always parked carefully and have had only a couple of small dings in 20 months, BUT the new thing is something that it doesn't matter how you park -- VANDALS who key the car. I just got mt car repaired from a Q-panel keying for $1,600, and someone keyed about 4 inched of the rear bumper, and it is doubtful that it was an accident. And it was in the covered garage at a high-end center (Stanford). I am beginning to think a MS is a bit of a magnet not that it's more popular. Any other stories?
