Yes it is nice to own multiple cars . . . but when you run into your own car, on your own driveway, that is frigging pathetic!

My HHR SS now has a boo boo!



The poor HHR crumpled like a aluminum can . . . my Silverado faired much better . . .

Oh well . . . I guess I'll be supporting the local economy by having TWO cars at the shop . . .

I still can't believe I did it . . . though I'd give you all the chance to laugh (now) with me . . . (or at me . . . )

 

there goes the clean Car-Fax report, Bummer man, been there done that... I did it with a F150 against my father-in-laws '67 Corvette, needless to say it's now an In-Law thing, and is salt in the wound.

 

I've come so close to whacking one vehicle with another, especially when pulling into the driveway.

 

I didn't do it with two cars, but I once was pulling up some shrubs and was using my truck and a chain. I was looking over my left shoulder and forgot about the 100' tall oak on the right......

ANother time I was using my riding mower to blow the grass clipping off my drive way. I pulled up to the garage door, went to put it in reverse and foot slipped off the clutch. Wheelied into the garage door. Lucky for me, wifes car was still in the garage.

Your not alone.

 

I did the exact same thing to my immaculate 79 Beetle convertible years ago. Just backed right into one of my neighbor's cars in my apt. building driveway. Luckily his car was a clunker and he didn't even care I scratched his fender. But my silver love bug, it had a horrible scrape worse than yours.

Stuff happens.

 

I was parking my car on the front lawn, under the tree, to wax it after washing.

Backed into my own tree...My buddy at the body shop laughed his butt off.

Never gonna live it down.

It will buff out!

 

i feel for you man, my wife backed out at a 45deg angle in winter and backed right into my grandam and put a 2' crease in the grand ams rear door. and luckily just scraped a tiny bit of paint off the hhr right in that exact same spot. then a couple months ago she turned in front of another car and smacked up the front end doing 9 grand in damage.

 

bummer.. pay for it yourself at an independent shop, and keep it off the carfax

 

Don't feel too bad as it could be worse.

I saw where a guy bought a ZR1 and got hit by his wifes new Hyundia Genises. He stopped fast after picking up the ZR1 only a few hours earlier at the dealer and his wife was following. The Vette had $7-8K in damage but the Hyundia had $15K.

Imagine turning that one into the insurance rep.

I saw the pictures and it was not pretty even thought the Vette held up pretty well.
