Even at the dealership, I'll tell them that I'll pull it up onto the lift from now on....
I let the GF take the 6 to Florida for two weeks, figuring that she'd be in her element with sun, sand and palm trees (the car, not the GF!!!)
Car comes back north (near Phila., Pa.) with cigarette ash in the corners of the seats, footprints on the passenger side dash, dried coca-cola on the psgr seat, a haze on the inside of the windows like a fire-extinguisher went off, a burn mark on the driver's side floormat ...and........ A dent and a scrape on the right rear side. To top it all off, she went through one of those "brushless car washes" before coming back up. Thank god I have several coats of wax on the car.
Oh, and she takes the friggin' autotrain from Fla to Va. on the way back... Can you imagine the degenerates loading up the cars drooling over who gets to "park" the droptop 6? Like in Ferris Bueller's Day Off? I don't want to know. I would have driven the 6 down on my car trailer and flown back up if I would have known she was gonna do the Autotrain. I aprreciate her trying to save miles on the car, and I would have gladly saved the 6 the 2000 mile round trip by trailering it down there and back. Would have given me a chance to hang out with her and her friends down there too. But noooooo, no one asks me, they just go go go.
Gonna take a picture in the light tomorrow. It's gonna be a $1000+ repair, I can tell. The paint isn't damaged so much as it is dented in. Just like my heart.....
Haven't asked her how all this has happened. She dropped the car off last night at my place while I was out, and I noticed it today. I'm just going to silently walk her to the car and point at the damage. See what she says.
Problem is, if you think I'm fanatic about my car, I am even more fanatic about her and she knows that all she needs to do is give a smile and hug and she's off the hook.
Thankfully she doesn't read here and maybe I can get a day or two of guilt out of her.... 
Next time she's taking the Z4 or the Jeep. What's that you say honey? You can't drive stick?
I'll give you a ride to the airport then

Here's how I see it:
If you have known this girl for a long while, then you should have known better than to lend her your car.
If you know her for only a short period of time, then you should have known better than to lend her your car.
I realize I am coming off very cold-hearted here, but this is your own fault.
She may be driving your car with her friends in it, but she is taking you for a ride. Sorry.
