parallel parking

I do parallel park, if you have problem seeing the curb, adjust the passenger side mirror downward so you can see the curb, then park.

Would do the same in my civic when I was running wide wheels.

Parallel parking is not easy, and that's one of the reason I want to master it, usually I can complete it in less than 3 turns...

Gotta capable to master this, imagine yourself telling people you drive a sports car and don't know how to parallel park???

Imagine you have a nice chic in your Z and you can't park??


Step Up Bros!!!!

Yep, should be easy if you drop that mirror.


The z was always a dream to parallel park IMO. Very short and easy to squeeze into a spot.


This ******* mustang on the other hand
