I wouldn't mind a GPS-based tracking device in my 928 so I can see what the mechanics are doing with it on teh "test drives" they always seem to take.

I've got one of those Davis CarChips stuffed into the OBDII port on my Subaru. I originally got it to read the MIL codes, but it turns out to not be very good at that. Still, it records hours of speed information, and flags when I've been accelerating or stopping hard.

I left it installed when I lent my car to a friend, but I never read the results... I didn't want to know. Maybe it will help me out in a traffic ticket or an accident, some day. In the meantime, it stays out of the way and I just forget about it.

I can't honestly say I recommend the CarChip, but for the right paranoia, it might be perfect. Of course, your mechanic is probably the only other person who would find the chip immediately!

i can completely understand doing something like that for reasons like keeping and eye on your own car, but to track your childs...i dont think thats moral

The shop I work at we do parts, auto repair, audio/video installs, window tint....

I had a guy the other day say go ahead and tint the windows, I'll bring it back next week for the brakes !!!

I'm going to bust on myself, here are a couple of the dumb things I've done:

I was installing foglights on my car once,
the drill slipped and I hit the condensor and I was showered with freon.
It was so thick I couldn't see the car.
Scared the heck out of me, I didn't know what I hit at first.

I drilled into my gas tank once.
It was near the top so it was an easy add a screw fix.

I'm sure there is more.

nice lol....i almost shoved a drill through my VX's door the first time i tried to fix my window clips....i probably would have cried lol....(like 3 years ago or more)

thats the biggest one i can think of...

oh, and when i was doing my extra brake lights (in the place of the little round reflectors) i dropped my tail light and broke the corner off of it....glued it back together with industrial super glue, and i still have it put in there, i bet ya cant even tell where it happened
