I don't get why people like to be jerks.

I find that if you park in a far off secluded spot, people notice your car and for some reason like to park next to it.
I personally look for end spots next to curbs or dividers so I can hug one side.

I prefer to park near other nice cars, instead of parking alone in the middle of nowhere. If you park isolated, you're taking risks on who will park by you. Park next to another nice car that looks well-maintained, and you know both of you don't want door dings and respect the other guy's car. It's a win-win for the both of you.

Definitely. And you can only hope the guy you park near understands that is why you're doing it - not trying to hate on them or show off.

People where I come from are douche bags. I parked in a appartment complex I have never been in before to chill with a buddy of mine. Again I parked away from everyone around me and someone thought it would be cool to hock a loogie on my passenger door. They also left a burning cigarette on my wiper blades.

Needless to say I never brought the Z there again.... cursed car...
