I have seen guys in beatup cars driving in parking lots and looking for the nicest cars just to try to dent them with the rusted junks (why??). If I had a car like that (Personally speaking, I know I never would even if I could afford it, I'm not the kind to blow that much money on anything that's neither an investment nor gains any value) I will do what needs to be done to protect from jealous/lousy drivers... That's just my opinion.

Your views would be different if you had one

Yeah, but if the point is to avoid any potential damage you would think you would try and draw at least fractionally less attention by parking properly. I'm sorry, but the car stands out much more if it is parked like the owner is the king of the land. That says look at me, I think I am better than anyone which is much more likely to be met with acts of automotive violence.

I maintain: park further away or do not park at all, don't park like you are entitled to special privileges as nice car or poor car, neither give you any.
