Default Coke Vs Paint

I was driving down the highway today, and some pile of crap threw his 44 oz coke at my car, striking it. With fresh coke applied to the driver side door and front fender, I was, as a lot of people would be, Not Happy... Which brings it to my question. Will this be bad for the paint of my T/A?

The plastic cup was probably more dangerous.

One time I had some punk kids do this to my explorer at the time. Unluckily for them, I cut them off afterwords and pulled into a dead stopped area, where there was a local car show. Cops in the medians. I asked the officer to please check the front of my car if there was pop on it, he said yes, and I proceeded to tell him the kids behind me threw it at my car and he asked if I wanted for him to harass them a little bit. I laughed hard and said please...I love you so much right now hahahahah.

I watched in my rear view as traffic inched as he flagged the kids over, had them all get out of the car and searched them....funniest thing I ever saw a cop do hahahahaha

I would also +1 to retaliation =) Throwing things at you especially damaging to your vehicle is just plain ignorant.

End of the day, I just got a $3 car wash, and it was fine =) Nothing to worry about!

When I was a teenager we had some **** heads throw a Jack N The Box Banana Strawberry snake right through my Dads driver side window, exploded all over the interior. Kids got lucky it got the windshield, my Dad was ready to run them down and beat the **** out of them.

Dang, freaking kids! Your car is looking good -what suspension are you running?

OP - Coke shouldn't harm your paint at all if you wash it off soon. I've had worse on mine and everything came off just fine.
