So first it was the huge rock chip in my windshield (which I still refuse to get fixed knowing it will happen again). Then it was the paint blemish. Now, not to be outdone by minor repairs, I have a freakin dent! I always heard about the "curse of the RS4" and just thought, "blah! you all are a bunch of freakin weirdos!"

It's too dark and I'm too lazy to take pics so I'll update with pics whenever the hell I get around to it but here's what happened:
I live near the top of a huge hill and I refuse to pay an extra $60 in rent just for an uncovered parking spot at my apartment so I'm always forced to street park it. Can be a huge PITA in Seattle but until now have been lucky to only get minor blemishes. Alright I'll spare the rest of the mundane details.

I was parked on the hill facing upwards. As I was getting ready to leave for work I was ____ed off how the jeep behind me was parked so close and gave it a few names in my mind. So I warm up my car, step my foot on the clutch, put my hand on the e-brake to get ready to release, give it a little gas and slowly release the e-brake. Damn, I forgot the most important step: putting it in first. So I'm revving like crazy and start rolling backwards. Before I can even wonder what the hell is going on, CRUNCH!! Lucky for me the jeep didn't even suffer a scratch but my poor Penny has a small dent and a rear bumper that almost came lose.

I don't know if it's the curse of the RS4 or if I'm on a string of bad luck. My left arm is in a sling right now from getting hurt playing football. I want to just rip my arm off and beat my car with it!

Well goodnight PNW and see you all at the cruise tomorrow!

 

Dang, that sucks dude, well from the sounds (and experience of it) it only seems to happen once so cross your fingers!

 

im not crossing my fingers ever again
sorry for the pain and good luck wt=/the fix

 

Sucks man...

 

Ya know, with every string of bad luck comes....more bad.......er....hang in there dude.

 

^ lol...umm thanks? well after taking a closer look, the dent isn't too bad. not that noticeable. It still bugs the hell out of me
because I know its there. Also, a clip that holds up the rear bumper got busted so theres a 1/8 inch gap between the rear bumper and passenger side rear fender, also not that noticeable unless you're up close. and as for my arm. I refused to be the gimp center of attention on the cruise so I went against doctor's orders to wear a sling. You wouldn't have known it but my shoulder was killing me that day, I could barely lift my arm more than a few inches. Doc thought I might have a broken collar bone which after an x-ray thank God I didn't. It turned out to be a strained muscle. But man that's the most painful muscle strain I've ever had. I'm not quite back to a 100% today but at least I can move my arm, it just hurts like hell if I try to lift anything with it. And thanks everyone for the umm well wishes...

 

I would gladly trade for the RS4 that car is HOT.

It's not the box, it's YOU!
