Lmao this is a pet peeve of mine also... The first, maybe second day I had my Z, I went to eat somewhere and had a clear view of my car, parked in the empty side of the lot, a good 4-5+ spots from any car. As soon as I start eating I see this piece of **** come rolling into the lot and goes toward my car. She parks right next to mine.
So I'm thinking ok whatever the driver won't hit my car at least. She swings her door open and I see these MASSIVE ankles/tree stumps come out and I'm thinking damn this fat ***** parked far out for herself and her shitty car. Then I see the passenger door open and I get worried, her passenger was Jab-a-the-hut reincarnated, she swings the door open like there is a sign saying "Free ARBYS" and it just nails my door.
I didn't have to say a word, as my GF went into rage mode and let these inbred horses listen to a piece of her mind. Doesn't fix the dent but it sure was funny. They also got a custom pinstripe for free that day.
If that was my 370 I would of **** a brick.

Same here, I figure it's healthy right? I found out that one of my "friends" was scratching my car purposely just cause he thinks that I worry too much about my new car. He'll be finding some nice bumper stickers/scratches on his car very soon.

I've pretty much given up on this subject... they want ya they're gonna get ya. Last week I watched in horror as a 5 year old proceeded to climb onto my hood using the carbon fiber canard on my v2 as a step. Took the child off my hood, mother watching, and she tells me and, I quote, "It's just a car."

Someone I know last week, was saying they often get yelled at for opening car doors in carparks, even if it's only just touching. Tells me it doesn't damage the paint, no mark. Then I explained that it actually leaves a slight door or panel ding. She actually looked shocked, when I said, if you get caught by the owner in the act, you'll need to pay an excess to have your insurance company to rectify the damage. I could almost see the cogs ticking over in her head. Then added, if it were me, even in the daily driver, would certainly give a piece of my mind. Looked totally stunned. Might have been the hardest they'd thought about anything in a while.

Here is one, I had to go to a wedding in NYC last week. I'm from Mass but not anywhere near boston. As i'm driving, i'm seeing sooo many cars with these add on bumper protectors... i'm like to myself, jeez... this is going to be aweful. So i park at a friends place that only allowed one person to park in front of me. A RED F'N saturn is there. The biggest POS ever. I wake up the next morning with a red scuff on my front bumper. I FLIPPED! This is the only damn Red car in a block. Later that day, he parks at the end of the street. I approached him and he denied it... goddamn F'n people

no pictures, but i have parked in the boonies of a home depot parking lot once to where i had to walk a great distance to get to the store. not even 15 minutes in, and i notice way out by my car a mini van was dead on next to me doors open and little kids running around my car. So out of the ENTIRE damn lot Low and behold it was an Indian family dead up on my Z. I was so pissed and cursing as i walked to my car because no offense to anyone, but them people have no respect for nothing. Luckily i drove away unharmed.
BUT, just that thought that something COULD or COULD have happened is what keeps me up at night.

i just had to snap the two pics below out of sheer amusement. i always take great care when parking that i just usually park further away or a very sparsely populated lot. saw this thread and felt i'd share.
i walk out of our local big box auto parts store and lo and behold i find this...
look at the many available rows behind my vehicle and look at the many rows available in front of my vehicle, and did he have to park that close...people like this are ridiculous.
good thing he didn't hit my car (my 2 way prob would have went off). if it did there would be some new pinstriping on his car to go with the looney toons seat covers this guy was sporting.

Owned my 03 for only around a month, and already have noticed it when I park ANYWHERE. My girlfriend has finally learned to not whine when I park out in the boonies at least! Sometimes I think she loves the car more than I do (impossible, by the way).
