to answer the questions, no nothing was wrong with the car. And no, the store was not busy. I work overnight 12 am to 8 am. the rest of the plaza is closed, and even business in our store is VERY slow at that time. the parking lot is always this empty and stays like that till 9 or 10 am. in fact most other days the lot is usually even emptier than what the pics show.

no that car wasn't parked there for too long. it's not one of the employees. might have been a customer though i'm not too sure.

the part about him being an *** is not that he didn't leave a sufficient gap between our cars, but rather that he just had to park right beside me when he had so much room and such an empty parking lot. in fact he parked in the middle of the lot. whatever his destination was, as you can see in the pics there were many spaces available much closer to wherever he was going. in fact that is precisely the reason i park in the middle of the lot, to avoid other cars parking beside me and possibly scratching or denting my car (which is precisely what happened with the dayshift pharmacist's brand new subaru impreza)

Apparently when you buy a 370Z it doesn't give you special privileges in any public parking lot?It is the risk we all take when parking in a public lot!So be greatful that your car had no dents or scratches!

It has nothing to do with special privileges. It has everything to do with just being courteous to someone else. No one is going to bitch or complain if someone parks next to you when the lot is full or when it means they can get to the door faster, that's pretty normal.

Parking right up next to someone (especially when they have a coupe) when there are other viable options is just a **** move.

It has nothing to do with a sense of entitlement or anything. Consider it like opening a door for someone. You don't have to do it, but it is a nice thing to do -- and chances are you are an *** if you just slam a door in someones face. :V

Meh... you can park anywhere you want without being an ******* as long as you park in the center of your lane. People who park off-center or on the lines are d-bags.

If that Explorer was on the line right next to his Z, sure, I'd be like "what a ****." But he was parked dead center and there was PLENTY of room between his car and the Z, which was not quite centered.

No harm done.

Especially when they have a coupe? As opposed to what? Do coupes deserve more respect than another type of car? Or someones $140,000 porsche panerama is less substantial than a $38,000 Z coupe? I think we should just respect other peoples property period.

Me personally I wouldn't do what the explorer did. But if I had to bet on it. I would say it was his 1st time seeing a Z up close and he/she was deeply admiring it.

I bet if it was some hot azz chic and pharmacist went out and saw some DD's danglin over his ride and she was the owner of the explorer. I bet he'd be all head swole with pics of the sexxxy girl that had to park next to his ride and a thread about how he got the digits.
Lol...
Honestly this thread would've been a lot more interesting if it went that way.

It has nothing to do with price or respect at all. The door on a coupe typically takes more room to comfortably open for you to get inside compared to a 4-door sedan. Comparing my car to previous sedans I have driven/been in, I can only slightly open my door if someone is next to me compared to being able to easily get out. I'm also a skinny guy, so I'd imagine it would be even more difficult for someone bigger than me. That's also not adding wind into the equation and a million other things

You'll notice something like this was mentioned in the OP, hence me using the especially.

Pharmacist how is he being an *******?

He didn't door ding you, didn't park so close you could not open your door to get in.

Obviously he parked next to your car in the empty lot to get a good look at your sexy yellow banana, i mean car

No.
I understand what you mean. I have a G37s coupe and an altima 3.5se sedan. Fortunately, I have a handicap parking permit so I don't have to park in a spot where people are up against my car. But when I can't. I park to take 2 spaces and my car is parked in a angular position to ensure boarding. That might be a **** move but @ least I'm not dealing with any d*&kheads.
So I understand what you mean just don't see it prevalent in this one situation judging by the pictures. I'm just happy nothing happened to pharmacists car. its a hot ride and can see why it would be admired by explorer dude. No harm, no foul.

No one should really have to worry about dings/scratches etc in public spaces. Although there a are few inconsiderate a88holes that just open their door bang into another car and don't care what damage is done, I know I have seen them. That is an a**hole!
