Parking your Z....straight... in the lines.

if im backing up, i just unlock the door, open it wide and back in with my head out the door.

if im getting into a spot normally, i just guestimate it, after a while you get a feel for how wide hte car is..

+1, I always back in with my drivers door open and mind the line with my own eyes.

haha this thread was all about seeing if anyone else had done this. I do this somtimes and feel like an idiot if I think someone is watching. "Nice car and you have to open the door to see the lines?" but it is so effective and it feels neat to be hanging out the door feathering the clutch/throttle.

Thanks for all the responses.
