I wonder if there is a website were people with $hity cars find the nice cars parked out in BFE and park next to it.. Then snap a picture.
" Hahaha I would have loved to see the face on the owner of that Porsche when they saw your rusty red 1992 ford escort wagon parked next to it."
lol probably. ive literally told people to there face when getting outa my car if they have to park quote ' that piece of S#!# next to me.' they always say yes and i always back outa the spot i just pulled into.
I like to get my beat truck right up on prius's and corolas with dings maybe if they realize if they park close enough the door becomes non functional and impossible to get into those ecoboxs, the owners are all about being lazy and doing things the easy way without having to think.
hopefully by doing this some of the these guys will think 'wow how inconciderate for this crazy smashed up violent monster truck to park this close to my considerably nicer car'. and apply this reasoning, unbiased, to whom they choose to park next to in the future.

Funny fact about those 'Eco' cars: three or four years ago a study was done (albeit biased) comparing cradle-to-grave emissions & environmental waste of a Toyota Prius and a Hummer H2, and the H2 had less of an environmental impact over its lifetime.

I parked at a (multi purpose) gas station after washing and detailing my car. Probably 15+ spots and only one other car there. Went in to grab a sandwich and come out to find a smart car parked next to me. I get in and as I'm starting my car , the driver and passenger of the smart car come out. He starts towards the car but then backs up to wait for me to back out. I get home and go around to the passenger side to get all my stuff out and there it was.... a door ding and chipped paint. 13 + spaces and the jack a$$ has to park right next to me.... a smart car ???? Jumped back in my car and tore a$$ back but already gone. I know it was that car.... I had just finished detailing it ! A flipping smart car.... WTF ?? IF YA CAN'T PARK THAT... then ya shouldn't have a drivers license !!!!!

Cones aren't a bad idea.

That "funny fact" has since been proven false; MULTIPLE times. It's amazing how otherwise intelligent people will believe anything that comes out of Jeremy Clarkson's pie hole.

Dont forget, they're also less fuel efficient than an M3...

They drove that 1.5L engine Prius to its max capacity, which of-course will **** on the MPG. You would almost never ever do that to your daily driving car. The M3 barely stepped on the gas pedal to keep up with it, meaning the engine wasn't under much pressure so it didn't waste as much gas. But the thing about Prius is that when you are driving at a certain speed it can completely turn off your engine and only run on the battery, which obviously saves gas. That Prius did 17mpg in that video. I have been in my friends dads Prius and that thing does 40 mpg easy when you drive it the way you would as a daily driver car. That video is flawed in many ways.
as in a joke.

the fact is you only have so much room to get to 60 on a freeway on ramp and the m3 gets their more efficiently.
the prius turns off at under 18mph (it claims 25 falsely), have you ever been on a street with a lower speed limit than 25? i have not. prius costs as much as a standard 3 series which with lower rpms at the same speeds can get better gas mileage. so what Fing moron is buying these slow priuss that i am always stuck behind going under the speed limit Fing mpgs for everyone else one the road.
If you dont have money for gas buy a 10k corola and save 20gs for gas, and if your rich and wanna help the environment, get a tesla roadster. this lower middle class spiffy camry does not make any sense. its a stupid idea that stupid people can falsely feel good about.
try to find a prius without a ding. not gonna happen, those owners hate cars.
