Agreed it does seem easier to dent then others, my mirror was knocked off while the car was parked and the mirror hitting the upper door really left a crease/dent on the plus side i like the quality of the paint job.

Dent is on the passeneger side so I never see it.

 

You must be unlucky or careless, mine is dent free. Just park away from the rabble in their DD's.

 

That works great, until you come out and find someone parked "extra-snug" to your baby

 

The masses herd together as close to the shop doors as they can get. I enjoy the hike to the door, sometimes I end up so far away I realize that I should have packed lunch.

 

I am used to parking far away and finding spots where no one can dent my vehicle. My current car has been my baby for almost the last 9 years and I have always preferred to steer clear of possible door dents. As long as you focus on it there is always a place far enough away... Just look at it as your exercise plan as well!

 

And.... dealer called me back - got the deal I was looking for - drove my new baby home last night! SO excited!

 

Congratulations! .................. and now you can join us for KJWinston's gtg in Yakima this May

 

Congratulations! I just bought my 04 LTD on monday and absolutely love it! I'm sure you won't stop smiling about it for some time!

 

That sounds fun... Where do I go to find out more? Are eveeyone's cars 'show' quality?

 

Mine isnt show quality for sure, but it isnt ugly as sin either. It has a few small scratches that will probably get buffed out this spring and has a dent in the hood along with a few rock chips. It does clean up really well and looks very nice so I can overlook those few flaws. I wouldnt hesitate to take it to a show around here, mostly because the quality of cars around here in shows isnt the greatest. The only thing that would keep me back is if Kjwinston happened to show up in one or both of his roadsters, which happen to look almost exactly like mine lol.
Oh well, Glad to hear the deal worked for you, sometimes it just takes patience. I got mine for the price I wanted no questions asked, mostly because I knew they had it for close to the 45 day mark and I made the deal on the last day of the year. That ALWAYS give you wiggle room as well.

 

Just scroll down on the main page to regional forums then click on northwest. You'll see the info on the first post.
