In this case, the BMW has a sense of where he is. Other drivers, they would have parked closer to the Porsche.

I'm in South Carolina right now and last night, went to dinner at a Japanese restaurant and saw this. The Asian owners were walking out as I took the last picture and must have thought it was the first Bentley I had seen since they said "it a Bentley."

Did you ask them if not having to park their car correctly was a privilege that's included at the dealership.

I would have.

Otherwise, I would have replied to "it's a Bentley" with:

I know its a Bentley, an older and now cheaper Bentley.
You also can't park. Does your warranty cover you being a dumbass?

Do I need to know them better then? I didn't realize that owning a car like that anywhere entitles you to being an as$hole. It doesn't matter what you drive, this is not fair to the rest of the people who park normally.

This is in Irmo btw.

I'm just saying people don't care about your stuff. I saw some lady kick her car door open into another persons car on Sunday and not think twice about it it sucks when you do the right thing and some a-hole messes up your ride. Sorry for posting.

Agreed!
I sometimes take up 2 spots, or 1 spot and the hazard section.. but make sure that it's far away from the doors and there are lots of other spots.
People just don't have respect for others property and it will suck when I come out and see a dent one of these days.

Default Sheep syndrome again

I tool my Z out to a park with my **** zu and parked safely I thought.Away from everyone except a motorcycle on one side. Lots of spaces and while Im walking my dog about 100 ft away a Mustang starts to pull in next to me. I thought, he's gonna be safe even though he s parking next to me with lots of spaces nearby. Out comes a fat hillybilly bitch and a scraggly thin ridgerunner. My previous post about the hillybilly type is once again verified.

Edit: Those lines look really long though, he might've been able to actually park there just fine in one spot.
That's true, but like you said it could have easily fit in one spot just fine. Behind the picture is the restaurant so it is still in the closest spacers to the restaurant.

Oh, I definitely agree with you on that! I have even been sitting in a car in a parking lot and had someone swing their door full on into the car, causing a nice sized ding. I got out and asked what their problem is and they said "what is your problem, who cares everyone gets dings anyway." It was also a lady, not being sexist but the majority of people who have that mentality are also women in my experience.

F THAT!!! I would have MADE her pay for that damage. Got her name, #, etc..... if not, I would tell her to stay put while I kick her door in with my boot...after all, who cares right? Maybe I'll take out her mirror while she watches. Everyone gets a "ding" right? How does it feel?
