<WOB> BMW vs. Maxima vs. '85 Tercel

Seriously, though, I've been thinking about parking the iX for awhile and
getting a $500 beater. I'm sick of the attitude people have towards BMWs,
the "I hate rich people so I will do stupid things to this car because it
may have once belonged to a rich person" attitude. (We know that only rich
people could ever afford E30's, right? ;) Someone threw a drink on my car
while it was parked... before that, someone was "touch parking" except he
used the side instead of the bumper. THREE dings in one day! But hey, the
"rich kid" who owns that car must have lots and lots of money to fix it,
right? *grrr*

Anyone else had this happen, or is this just the People's Republik of
Kambridge?

Charles.
