I wanted to get the Mazdaspeed 3 but it was a little more than we were able to spend. We were upside down on my wifes other car when we traded it in (a Mazda 6 that was just not a good car).

Does your company...or the store where this might have happened....have a surveillance video of the parking lot? Worth looking into.....how awesome would it be to nail the SOB due to a video of the accident!

I was going to ask that same question. It may be hard to get a plate # but if it did enough damage (and it sounds like it did) it may be worth giving them a call.

Looking for video is a great idea. A mysterious dent appeared on my mom's SUV's rear bumper recently, and we first thought it was a hit and run in the Wal-Mart parking lot. Surveillance video showed that the dent was there before she went inside the store - it turns out a tow truck had done the damage (my dad parked illegally for a Vols basketball game :P ). The driver tried to say the damage was there before he towed the vehicle, but we caught him.

It is in such a strange place, I am starting to wonder if it was even hit by another car. The dent and scrape is just above and to the right of the "M" emblem, so it would have had to have been a lifted truck or something. I was driving to the store last night and herd a clunk, but thought I had hit a rock and it had been thrown up under the car, I wonder if someone threw a rock and hit my car. I am very confused by the whole thing. But my baby is now scarred. Maybe I need to stop sniffing glue.

If it left a big dent and a scratch it would have to be one hell of a rock, not one that would just go "clunk"

That is what I was thinking, and I SAW NOTHING hit my car.

I am wondering if one of my wifes nephews crashed their razor scooter into it, the way they ride, I could see them denting the car with the metal handlebars.

Now that's alot more possible. It wouldn't take much to dent and scratch a hood but if it was a rock you would've known it.

When you were at the store did you even back into the spot so that it would've been easy for someone to back into your hood?

I back into my parking space at work, but never at a store. It is possble that some lazy bastard left a shopping cart and it was pushed into my car by another vehicle. Whatever, it is dented now, and wil probably stay that way, I hate it because I take such good care of my vehicles.
