Other Sports Cars Parking Next to You

At the gym a month ago before my new wheels. Both guys are my friends but still a cool pic.

I guess it's true. Nice cars do park together for safety. lol. I parked next to the S2000 because he had a nice car and I figured he wouldn't ding me. But when I came out of Lowe's I also had an old school 240Z parked in front of me.

Preettty sick, around here it seems like people will not park next to you if its nice. Well most of the time. The other day there was one of those nascar replica looking chevy impala i think? A 2door.

I came out of a local restaurant (after parking at the extreme end of lot) and found a Jaguar parked right next to me-I was pleased...he obviously assumed i would be respectful because of what i was driving-And he was correct. Should have snapped a pic...dang:-)

They just want to bask in your reflected glory. Like plain girls hanging out with beauty queen.

That really did make me laugh out loud!

But I wouldn't call a 240 a "plain girl". The 240 might be old school, but I would rock that thing all day long. Classic's never go out of style.

I definitely seize the opportunity to park next to nice cars, especially well taken care of sports cars. I think there's a mutual respect that extends beyond brands. You know as long as you leave an adequate amount of space, you have little to worry about regarding door dings.

Now, we should establish what constitutes a "nice car" that should essentially lead to a fear-free parking experience...

New mustang v6?
No. That could be a spoiled high school kid (esp where I live)

Perfectly polished Shelby?
Probably a safe bet.
