:iagree:

A friend of mine took this pic on Friday, this person parked so badly at the mall that security put cones around the car :icon17:

Look how far back they parked, they are practically outside of the stall compared to everyone else!

It never friggin fails, are you frickin serious!!! You gotta park two inches from my @$$ and there's plenty of street parking on either side! Unbelievable.

:shakes head:

Don't understand what's wrong with this picture. The space to the right is not a full space; just shows a lousy job laying out the spots.

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.

I agree.
That half spot should either be marked with hash lines or labeled for motorcycle use.
I also think the owner of a new 750 should stay somewhere nicer than a Hampton Inn.

:shakes head: People are so weird. Imagine if it had been you sitting there on the curb instead of your car, and this guy/gal came up and sat this close to you. Creepy.

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.

What a douche! Did they tow his car?

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. :)

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.
