Theres a black EK Hatch with Pink Decals in mckenzie towne that fits that description. I'll cross reference plates next time I see it.

OP said it was red... sounds like so many cars in this area but the bbs's

I do know that the car was red, so a black hatch would not match.

And yes, to the other suspected vehicle, unsure of wheel size.

I'm not entirely sure if they were BBS or Enkei or cheap-o knockoffs (very possible), but they did have the spoke design that is a spoke from the hub, splitting to two spokes to the rim, in a Y fashion, which is something that I've seen MOSTLY with BBS wheels

Update on me:
I'm doing better. Back is feeling much better with rest and a little light stretching. My ankle/calf is still sore, I still can't put 100% weight on it, but I would say I'm near to 80% weight. I expect to be back to normal next week, maybe with a little twinge of pain here or there if I move my back wrong.

I'm just glad my reflexes are still sharp!

Did the red hatch have a decal 'illmotion' on the back of the window?

I'm in the area often and see a lot of the same vehicles; I'll keep my eyes open for you. Otherwise good luck.
On a side note, I've had two vehicles smashed in parking lots on that side of 130th- both soccer moms in trucks who at least left notes.

I'm personally offended by this comment.

I did actually get a license plate; I guess I asked about the wheel size more in terms of rough size. I couldn't tell the exact spoke design since we were rolling on deerfoot, but they could very well have been BBS mesh-style.

It's more that the wheels looked a bit large on the car, which on an EG is anything beyond 16".

Just don't know if I should go around posting some poor guys license plate if it's not actually him. It did seem to match the description though; it was hella dirty, red, EG chassis, and had a fart can that looked like a Vibrant muffler/knockoff.

Give Vaga the plate number. If it is the wrong guy no harm done, but if it's the right guy you got yourself a free dinner for two at my bistro

I've had the front bumper of my car ripped off in that parking lot in September, literally the first shopping trip I made there. I think from here on out, I'll be doing my grocery getting at the Deerfoot Meadows superstore.... I just seem to be cursed with the Superstore at 130th

I really must say, and I mean this, I appreciate the outpouring of support and eyes out. Thank you, all.

EDIT: The wheels LOOKED like this (granted, they were spinning, but they looked like this except gold colored), and they could have been knockoffs/cheap-o's:

Yep. It's like that.

If somebody correctly identifies the car and Simon is able to ID the guy, free dinner. I'm talking appetizer, dinner, and dessert.

[Vagabond142]

The car that b.rock saw was NOT the car in question. Everything but the license plate matched, apparently

Ah well, it's a needle in a haystack in a field of haystacks the size of Calgary. As I said, I appreciate everyone's diligence

I'm over in this area a lot. I've actually seen (a couple or few weeks ago) this same car. Pretty sure, because he was driving like a fucking douche canoe and while I am almost totally de-sensitized to ass hats in civics, I took note of the dirty red civic with gold rims. My guess is that it is the same moron.

Anyhow, I'll keep my eyes open too.

I'm sure there are several similar cars. But it's only so often you find one driving like such an idiot ... that it kind of stands out. Glad you are OK...as it could have turned out a lot worse I guess.

[Supa Dexta]

I live down that way.. But I havent been home in a couple of months.. He'll likely be found long before I'll be back to watch out for him.

[A790]

Any updates here?

Free dinner at my bistro if you nail the wanker!

[desi112]

gotta get this guy for sure.

[Adrenaline101]

I live close by now so Ill keep my eye out. Saw 2 red hatches yesterday and didnt even know about this thread

[CanmoreOrLess]

Anyone see a car matching the description, take a photo with your phone when safe and all under cover and such. Post it (when and where) and let the detectin' begin.
