Left the office for a bit this morning and came back to this. The entire parking lot slopes from left to right about 15-20% (the blue truck in the background is actually level). I usually pull forward into this space and provide protection for the Cobra. Our parking lot with nine total spaces had only four cars in it when this guy showed up. Why he felt it necessary to back in to this particular space, I'll never understand.

That doesn't seam so bad. He didn't park too close to you or anything.

he's not close to you at all... clean parking there.

But damn I want your Cobra. Sonic Blue FTW.

I think he is upset because his spot was taken

JARblue · 06-01-2011, 01:55 PM

Actually the biggest problem here is the guy BACKED into the space and the picture doesn't show the extreme slope. So as soon as this guy opens his door, gravity takes hold and slams it right into the Cobra. That's why the Cobra always parks in that last spot because typically people don't back into their spot (and I generally park next to him so he knows it's safe). We watched the guy get in his car and leave and have to give him props for being very careful (probably because he knew we were watching).

It's my co-worker's Cobra. Sonic Blue FTW indeed

Need pics of the Z and Cobra at work.

Can you say "Cobra" a few more times? Its just a mustang, there are hundreds of thousands of them...they're nothing special.

A number of people will say the same thing about the Z (much to my chagrin). Every time I hear comments like that and its directed at something I said about my car it makes me cringe.

Samich · 06-01-2011, 08:42 PM

I'm glad it was diagonal parking, but seriously this parking job makes me want to throw up.

happytheman · 06-01-2011, 09:15 PM

Wow! Can I assume that the red car pictured is yours?

Samich · 06-01-2011, 09:31 PM

Yep, I couldn't pull in all the way either. Well I didn't want to anyway...lol
