Five things that scare me the most with the Z: 1. Parallel park and scratch the wheels(I have the sports package). 2. Parallel park in front of a crowded coffee

Five things that scare me the most with the Z:
1. Parallel park and scratch the wheels(I have the sports package). 2. Parallel park in front of a crowded coffee shop while everyone is watching me. 3. Back out of a parking space and not see the oncoming pedestrian/car. 4. Change lane on the freeway. 5. Someone opens their car door and dent my Z. |

Oh? I didn't know that. Yeah, I've been very neurotic about parking and cornering around blind curbs because I don't want to scratch up the Enkeis. But I didn't know the rays were softer. In that case, yeah, I could see it being an extra concern.

#4 should be a non issue if you correctly set up your side view mirrors... Do you see your rear fender while looking into the mirror? 1 and 2 also are non issues if your side mirrors are setup correctly... many people do not set these up correctly.. next time you are on the highway go into the right lane for your left mirror and go slower than traffic, adjust it so that when cars pass by you you see them in your mirror and when you lose them in your mirror you see them next to you... fine tune this and you will NEVER not see a car next to you.. for the passenger window go into the middle or left lane and do the same thing. you should not see your rear fender very much, if at all, in the mirror.
