Funny how there are dozens of threads on parking "safely"; i.e. near curbs and such, but when someone parks using otherwise dead space, it's a fail.

As far as I'm concerned, if you are in a less than half full lot, it's okay to take up two spaces IF you are parked far way from everyone else. On the rare and painful times I might have to park the Z at a store/restaurant, I'll park as far away from everyone else as possible and maybe cheat a space or two.

That doesn't mean you might not get keyed, but it's not like some of the real parking fails pictured in this thread.
Its most likely for a motorbike.

+1.

I do this shiz all the time with spots in large lots. If a mini coop can't make it in , I'm parking like an r-tart! I don't want some dumbass that thinks they know how to park squeezing in and door dinging me.


Eh, I might get hated on about this comment but 2 years and 0 door dings on the z.

Wow I can not believe someone was retarded enough to park AND leave their car like that. This has to be one of the worst I've seen in this thread. I was giving you rep for it, but accidentally hit enter before I finished my message. If you see a rep that says "That's", it's from me

I am impressed by how the driver can put exactly half of a 185mm tire on the curb... Brilliant!!

BTW Zenki370, did you take a look at the front tire on passenger side????

At least they are only messing up their own car. It is a horrible parking job, but I'd take this over some one cutting into the space of another car.

The posts in here are so true. I was in a wreck with my 350z a few months ago and finally got it back recently. Last Friday I went to the mall at 330pm to see a movie and parked in the LAST possible spot of the lot. There were no other cars within 50 spaces of me.

I come out from the movie and already see a shopping cart way at the back a few rows over from my car and think "just my luck it will have hit my Z".

I get out there and sure enough a HUGE dent and scratches in the driver's door. So, either the wind caught the cart or someone did it deliberately but at that moment I thought "ENOUGH, I'm sick of fixing this car" lol Traded in for a 370z the very next day.

So, now I have larger monthly payments but I just had that "bad luck" feeling with the 350z and wanted a new car with no bad memories.

Oh, and lastly the only reason I did park all the way at the back was my usual front spot was taken. Similar to the pic a few posts above the front spot has a 2-3 foot wide gap with hash lines beside it so I park over the line. Looking back it seems like fate that I have a 370z in the garage today The moral of this is you're safe nowhere. Being in the last spot with no other cars around offered my Z no protection from the cart. You can't win

This ****ing guy did this while I ran out to lunch (you can see the nose of my Z in front on my normal parking space:



Luckily this is in my condo complex's controlled parking lot and I reported his stupid butt. If you are going to buy a stupid Avalanche AND back into the spot make sure you have the intelligence and skill to park it.

I think he got a nasty-gram ticket. I haven't seen him park there since. If he wasn't such an inconsiderate azzhat he could still get away with parking there.

At least he got something. Was there a fine with the ticket?

Spotted some ripe parking jobs today. The Chevy Suburban, way over the line.



Now for the Ram, what a freaking douchebag. He could've parked away from the main road instead of block one entire lane. The driver was a typical Newport Beach 'bro' with the flat brimmed hat and affliction shirt. Nice lift and tires for a truck that will never go off road

Seen this douche at work. We have no extra parking spots at my unit since all our squadrons are back from Afghanistan for the first time in like 10 years. We always had at least 1 squadron deployed but now everyone is back and it sucks. So this douche parked his brand new 5.0 in the front row and took up 2 spots.




Also spotted this *** clown at the bank
