Yeah, I tend to cut folks a bit of slack if they take up more than one parking space if they're parking at the back of the lot ... where it's empty. If you're just doing it to attract attention, as with this particular shot suggests, then it's over the top.

I hope there's some better stores in that plaza, too.
I mean, taking your McLaren to Tuesday Morning?

I see Porsche Carrera convertibles (plural), among other high end cars, at the local Wal-Mart all the time.

Yeah try taking that thing to the track where "poof"! Your insurance evaporates the moment the car goes on the track property.
I guess all the "Track Guys" here on the forum have their car paid for so insurance doesn't matter? Does life/health insurance evaporate at the track also?

Health and life shouldn't have any issues with track events. And many track events have insurance you can purchase. I'm not sure how the rest of your post relates to crappy parking, especially in response to the post about door dings you quoted.

And from that same parking lot, time and date... I have to wag my finger at a fellow 370Z owner

At least this guy was parked waaaay out on the last row of the lot tho.

If more Wal-Mart shoppers would do this, it might help the obesity problem in our nation.
When I go to Wal-Mart, it's .com.

Not the worst offender, but it's obvious that no phuks were given.
