I dont like parking anywhere, drive...when parked, it is nicely in my garage, a safe well known place or where I can see it from establishment. 5+ years, and no the PARANOIA doesnt go away lol.

I totally understand your anger and wanting to burn that dudes car; but like most everyone said after you took two spaces it pretty much became a "whos the bigger a-hole" contest. Park away, park right and most times I bet you will be left alone.

As much as the OP chose poor words.... he stayed he parked across the lot in.an empty area and THEN took two spots...if that doesn't scream " I'm.really trying to park away from.you fawkers and even took a three mile home to.avoid everyone".. I don't know what does...someone going out of their way to.park tight next to him.if he TRULY was parked far away is a far greater dik move.. totally on purpose.. I'm a bug dude..id just wait in my car and have a chat about the other drivers passive aggressiveness and needless posturing issues. Lol.

You deserve it.

If I see someone with a nice car taking up two spaces I put peanut butter on their spoiler.

Some person in an SUV parked next to me and I could only open my door about six inches. I had to get in through the passenger door. I thought about keying his car be some lady was giving me a dirty look, so I just wrote a note and left it for him. "Nice parking A**h***".

Don't double park... there's probably a post on some forum somewhere on the internetz of the douche that double parked... and a pic of your car.

I don't double park and I've NEVER had an issue with someone parking too close to me.

Dont double park. Simple as that. I always try to park away from everyone else, but I still only use one spot, sometimes I come out with no cars around, other times, there is one right beside me. Kind of annoying when there are lots of other spots open around, but I take it as they just admire the beauty of the Z

Also, some loser gym bunny always double parks when I see her at the gym. Her vehicle...a camaro RS....RS!!!! It is nothing special, just somewhat new I guess. Pisses me right off.

Parking spots have lines for a reason. This girl used to take up 4 spots with her chrysler 300 at my college (parking lot would get full everyday) so I wrote a funny note about her parking habits and her car and left it on her windshield. Surprisingly she didn't park like that for the rest of the semester.

Personally i park mine out in the boonies of a parking lot as best as i can and angle it. Yet i still get people parking close to me, nothing i can do about them, hence why i angle at no one else's inconvenience but mine as far as walking distance is concerned. On the other hand i am a paranoid about door dings on my car caused by some inconsiderate a-hole cutting it to close to me.

I do this sometimes, but most of the time I don't take the Z out because too many careless people, mostly woman. Definitely taking 2 spaces is wrong, your just asking for it no matter how far you park. It shows either your blind, or your a big shot. Regardless, haters will always live amongst us.

Anyone that says taking up 2 spots is a douche move has their heads up their butts. Look, if I am in the far out back of the parking lot not near any other cars then it is not a douche move. I do it in all my cars (including my POS Jeep) because 1) I am not too lazy to walk to my destination 2) I am not hendering any lazy a** that needs to park right up close to the door of their destination. If I took 2 spaces up near the front like I see people do then I would be a douche.

The other night I parked my IPL, which is a 54k car out in the middle of no where and some *** had to park next to it. I was no where near the doors and in fact on the third level of a parking garage (only 2 cars up there) and not near the stairs or the elevator. The person that parked next to me was the douche, not me.

Even if someone only has a 20k car, it doesn't mean they love it any less than the guys with the lambo (probably more). At least they have pride in their car. You guys on this forum should respect that, I would think, and not talk crap about someone having pride in their car.
