Alright, so I don't know where to begin.. I am stuck in between and I don't know what to follow..

1. Completely believe in the fact that no good will ever come out of people and that people are inherently bad.

2. I am just one unlucky person roaming the streets.

Of course by now you must be asking yourself what the hell is this guy talking about, so here it is..

I don't know if some of you remember or not, but about a week ago I posted here asking about a proper detailing place where I could take my car, as some idiots had decided to vandalize my car.. so it took me a week or so to cool down and not bother look at the back of the car and notice the chipped paint and the tiny scratch.

Tonight I come here as one very furious individual! I am fully controlling my anger at the moment, but god sure knows I would love to tare a few mother ****ers apart!

To sum it up.. about an hour ago, I was driving northbound on one of the most awesome driving routes that I think exist in Toronto; it is a street called Mount Pleasant, as I am driving back home.. with me I have my girl friend and I also have my driver's side window down.. driving the car in Manual and enjoying the beautiful symphony and of course relieving all the stress that had been accumulated all week long. As luck has it, a few really really generous ****s decide to roll down their window while traveling extremely fast, and throw a rotten egg towards my front windshield glass.. in return leaving a dent on the panel which covers the side of the windshield and leaving many tiny scratches on the actual glass itself!

I called 911 immediately and reported the incident, and I just hope to god that someone stops them and makes them pay for at least few nights so they learn the difference between human and monkey.

Ahhhhhhh!!!! Why?!?!?!? Why must people be so difficult? Why are people inherently such *******s?!?!? Please someone shine a light on this question for me.. I might not be old enough to know the answer but so far my experience in life as a twenty something year old has been very negative!

And of course on a more important note, what do you guys suggest I do?!?!?!?

impr

Well you do live in Toronto. :p Jk I feel your pain.

The other day I was passing through east hastings trying to find some movie theatre and led astray due to some bad directions. I made a wrong turn so I went down a back alleyway. I noticed two teens walking down the sidewalk so I decided to be courteous and stop for them. Which was a mistake.

As they walked past me they decided to get all 'gangsta' since I had a female friend in the car with me. So as they walked past my car one of them spat on my car's driver side window.. and I sped forward just as the other one tried to punch my roof. But then the thought briefly dawned on me as I looked in my rear view mirror. There's no one around I could just easily run these guys over. But I kept my anger under control and just drove off.

In my experience there are such things as genuinely nice people, but sometimes you just get unlucky and happen to meet or be driving through a sketchy *** area. Doesn't help when some people have serious inferiority complexes.

I suggest buying a gun

Ah **** you beat me to it!!

B.E.R.U.A.N.G

OMFG!!!!!! Why??? I simply didnt understand...You guys didnt do anything wrong, didnt try to show off or anything..I just simply confused

some people are just dumb as they will always be I suppose....I Hope you guys are alright, and I hope you guys are going to get a good "karma" out of that experience....

yooker

If you can get ahold of a taser that would be best. Taze them then beat the **** out of them, repeat until anger is gone.

Well mrtesting, I may not be wise enough yet to be giving you this advice since I am still learning day by day but I have gone through some tough times in the past, including recently when I got my C63 and had various little issues that kept bothering me over and over....Anyway Long Stories....

I strongly believe that whatever you put out into the universe will come back to you. In other words, what are you doing in your life where you are attracting this karma? Neither I nor anyone else here can tell you that but you. I know it may sound idiotic and downright weird but if you think about it for a moment then you might understand. Unfortunately I had to go through rough patches to understand that concept. lol

Also I would suggest you speak with your insurance company about the vandalism that has occured and see what they can do. I would send my vehicle to a registered Mercedes center to take care of the scratches and etc. Even better, take your car to your Mercedes-Benz Dealer.

You should carry the Neutralizer (A Bat) or move to Brooklyn (just joking) where people are more respectful (truth) in most neighborhoods. In the past couple of weeks I've had kids pulling next to me to race, a CLK350 what a joke...ok so I blew him away but it was fun : > ))))))))) I think he almost blew-up his engine : > ))))))))

lomita

Did you get their license number?

That's what insurance is for.

Breathe, relax, it will pass. It's a pisser, however, no one got physically hurt. What goes around will come around. Just a matter of time. Move on with your life. Continue to enjoy your ride. The damage is cosmetic. It's fixable.

Now about the gun or the taser, you could shoot yourself in the foot. That would take your mind off the moment.NOT

You did the right thing and got away, shared about it. The event no longer owns you. Go to your Police Station and tell them you would like to talk about the situation to decompress yourself. (positive actions = positive results) That will keep you from going to their level, or lack of level.

Eleventeen

Unfortunately, what you should have done, it's now too late to do. You're in a C63... you should have chased them down! At least to get the plate number or something

Stangar

My twist on the situation is that you have the "envy" factor going against you. Twenty-something with a C63? That says a lot whether you have worked hard for it or not.

If you had been in a '98 Camry it wouldn't have happened.

The vast majority of people can't afford something like that and impetuous, envious, immature people (yound and old) go out of their way to screw with people who have nice things. They somehow feel that they can right the wrong of you having something they don't and then act on it.

Scorpion

Yeah, I can understand how pissed off you are. I've had my fair share of run ins with jealous idiots. Whether its driving my parent's benz to high school back in the day, or now driving mine around.

You've just got to be thankful that the damage is only superficial, no one was hurt, and you've got a *****in' car. Oh and they probably weren't going home with their girlfriend that night either. Just a couple of jerks trying to bring the successful down to their level. Don't let them.

There will always be asses on this earth, just can't let them get to us. Jealousy is a *****.

Mrtesting, you should check out MBFanatics.org, if you haven't already. Toronto based MB community. Very tight crew. And we're nice guys.

This is going to sound "alarmist" but I believe we can expect more of this type of "backlash against wealth," given current and developing economic conditions. If you don't drive or live in a community where there are similar economic conditions to yours, you may feel despised.

Human nature at its most basic and ugliest. Some of this same stuff happened after the dot-com bust. Just be aware that there may be a lot of angry people out there, and you may be perceived to be something that you are not, and judged by the "things" you have. That is the society we have built -- to be judged by our possessions, instead of our achievements and contributions. This type of thinking goes both ways.

I hope I am wrong. Stay tuned!

paulGT3

See in Texas this simply doesnt happen. If it does you pull your shotgun off the rack and blow out their tires.
Is there an aftermarket shotgun rack for the C63?

Hans at least in SoCal its pretty common place. BMWs and Porsches etc.

But with socialists in Canada class envy will be a problem

rploaded

True True, People here are generally very respectful of others property. Fear of getting shot probably has something to do with it.

In respect to the gun rack, I see great mod potential with this one...Could it not just be retrofitted into the grill?

Sorry to hear about the damage to your vehicle, **** happens to good people. Next time run them down. Or just keep pace and call the police, you would be amazed how effective the highway patrol can be.

AMGC60-3

I will agree on what you have said and believe that it is only going to get worse down the road and this is happening across the world.

GREAT idea Black on black grill with black AK embedded in the grill.

KuiDaCroat22

These people are ****ing haters. I was driving my dad CL65 one time in socal and these guys in a truck starting throwing **** at it cuz I was a kid in a extremely nice benz. Your in a beautiful car people r gunna hate and be envious causing them to do anything possible to ruin your day because they arent as fortunate as you! keep your head up man its alll good, its nothting you cant fix even though your pissed off!

bluert

mrtesting,

I know how you felt. I happen to me in my Vette quite a few years back. As I was driving by, couple kids decided to chuck an apple on the passenger side door. I pulled over imediately and they all took off. At first it did seem to done any damage but the next morning, I saw crack in the paint.

Since we can't buy a .500 Smith&Western and use it here. We can't buy pepper spray or legally have it. It would be nice if we could because I was told from couple police buddies that those stuff stung for hours.
The other alternative is how about buying some bear spray at you local hunting/outdoor shop and use it on the next A-hole that do that to your car?
What about moving out of TO?

Merc-Skycap

I don't think he needs to move out of Toronto just for that but he should look into pepper spray if its really getting out of hand. I don't carry weapons with me of any kind other than my hands and feet but not many people know how to deffend themselves or just don't want to spend time or energy beating up the next idiot that bothers them. haha

bobo391

I feel sorry about what happened to your C63. I understand how you feel as I live in Toronto too. Many crimes in Toronto are committed by teenagers. Many ****ing parents create these ****ing teenagers. I just wonder why they don't blame their parents instead of feeling inferior and damage other people's property. The police is stupid too. There's not much you can do about it. My best advice is to stay away from those "crap" area, especially highly condensed condo area. My daily activities is usually east of Yonge, North of Steeles, West of Kennedy and South of Major Mac. For other areas, we are not welcomed in our luxury German cars. Good luck!

mrtesting

Alright well it took me a good day and a half to calm down and after I came here and read all of your responses, all I can say is thank you! and I don't think I can thank you enough.. talking about this not only has put a smile on my face, but it has also calm my anger down.

This is by far the best forum that I have been on! You guys are amazing and a big help all the time! I took the baby out for a drive last night and I once again put the window down and hit the road.. even though the side of the window has an issue now.. this car still rocks my boat and makes me forget about my pain..

On other notes.. Mount Pleasant is not a bad area, it's one of the high end areas of the downtown core of Toronto.

I have been thinking of carrying a taser, pepper spray or go all the way texas style, but unfortunately our friend dbello from NYC wins with his choice of "the Neutralizer"

I think to some extent some **** somewhere is being way too jelous.. I wish I knew who, because I for sure would love to neutralize some of their senses!

And I will be heading to the dealership tomorrow, considering that it is Thanksgiving day here in Canada.

Once again thank you all so much for the support! You guys rock!

Ohh BTW Scorpion, I am on MBFanatics! same name as I have here..

dlbello

Hey Thanks for the choice award... I would recommend the Louisville Slugger it goes great with black leather and you can also get some good hits with just a few swings (now we're still talking about baseball right? ) Good Luck with your future travels

bluert

That may be true but our laws prevent the parents from disciplining their kids at an early age? I am not condoning that but sometime when talking doesn't work, you need to dished out some spanking.

passcheco

Carry a coca-cola (glass bottle) with you, the next time pass the SOB's and toss the ****g bottle out the window, just don't miss
