On a dark car I would hate to have swirls that could be read.

I do wonder what I would do if I found someone doing something to my car.

That's hilarious!

Someone once did that to the passenger side window of the toaster. They wrote "XBOX" Still to this day in the right light you can see it on the window.

Their hands must have been covered in bacon grease or something.

Running the Z through an automatic car wash? Like the gas station kind where it beats the dirt off with crusty bristles stiff as barbed wire? Then the multi-color dish soap shoots out to make you think you're getting a really good wash by stripping all the wax off. Finally the water is blown off in a sandblast mixture as the trolley ejects your car from the back side of the building and you feel good about spending your $5. Surely you jest!

I'm not too upset about it, felt like I deserved it for neglecting my Z. I used to wash it every week but I've been so busy with school on the weekdays and busy with friends on the weekends.

You should just hand your Z over to me if you're going to disgrace it by washing it through the car wash.

Well, at least it was only finger traced in the window. I've seen entirely too many brand new slick sports cars out here that someone has felt the need to run a key up or down the frame or one of the doors. I'll never understand why some people are so jealous or cruel.

Its one of my main concerns once I get my Z at the end of November; I have no covered parking or garage in my complex, nor at work.

Yep, I have to deal with the fear of vandalism as well since I have no garage or cover parking....but I guess that's what insurance and a baseball bat are for

When my four wheel drive gets dirty I go to the car wash so my neighbors dont have the "red river" running down the street, Ive seen what I've left there= dont take your Z to the drive thru car wash.

You should write "Thank you " on the window and leave it there for a week or two.

Even though there wasn't any damage done I would still be furious for someone touching my property.

Man, by the looks of your picture I thought that it was keyed,
Very glad it wasn't.
