I would be tight as f*k if that happened to me. POS minimum wage workers probably took your car for a joy ride and hit a curb or sharp object.

at least the owner is taking care of the damages. I had a friend that use to valet for a high end mall( ferrari's, lambo, aston marints. He told me him and his other valets would take the exotics to the very top of the parking structuring and race them.

After he told me that story...i stopped valeting my car lol.

I have an acquaintance who valet's in the Hollywood area. He's always bragging about how he drives some really expensive cars and says how they take it for joy rides. I told him that's not something to brag about.

I know I don't have the most amazing car, but I still don't want dumb valet's abusing their job in my car.

It's a shame they get away with it more often than not.

Over a decade ago valet was my first job in high school. Joy rides are bound to happen when you are a teenager and aren't rational. Been there done that. I know from first hand why not to valet my own car unless it was a rental.

OP from one IS owner to the next, hurts to see the damage done. Hopefully it gets taken care of completely.

You're a bigger man than me. That f***er would be dissolving in a 50 gallon drum of acid if he did that to my car.

With your suspension, was your butt puckered while they were loading your IS onto that flatbed? I'm about the same height and I need them to use wooden planks or it's not pretty

Also, is that a Munich Motorsports license plate frame I spy? Good friends with those guys, they're awesome

Adrian Peterson had a similar story.

Sorry about the wheel / tires. Yep, the tires have to be changed out in pairs. Been there, done that with a few PSS sets
