I don't think OP's incedent was malicious, the other guy saw a cool car and thought "this is a nice car, I can snap a picture after I park, and he won't ding my car when he returns". He just sucked at parking.
He was weak with 3D spatial orientation.

the guy who hit me already filed a claim this morning before i could talk to him but im about to call him and see if he wants to deal with it outside of insurance. the guy is a car collector so he is pretty cool about everything we have talked about so far
Don't. Just let insurance handle it unless you have some shitty insurance for faktards. :crazy:

If that was my car, I would get the guy's info, file a claim through my insurance, talk to my claims adjuster to get a quote for the repair, get it fixed at a certified BMW or Toyota body shop. I NEVER talk to the other party. The other party's insurance has contacted me when it was a collision while moving, but yours is an easy comprehensive claim/coverage.

I've been hit so many times in parking lots and shit, it's like getting my car washed.
Sorry it happened to you too.

there is def factory paint missing but all the red paint you see just peels right off. the only reason i havent touched it is because the insurance claim hasnt started yet and i wanted to keep it the way it is just in case


still boggles my mind that in an empty parking lot with 50 spaces people still want to park directly next to you.
I've experienced this, a few times already. 50 empty spaces and someone just has to park in a spot next to my car. I sortof understand if another nice sportscar parks near me (as what inevitably occures during cars&coffee events), but other types? ....mind boggling. :oops:
