Really though, I could probably snap a couple pictures of how horrible people park.

Or some hot 18+yo white girls.

I miss school...

Not the parking lot dangers though.

Except that anyone could just walk by and yank them off the car if they wanted to.

and thats what sucks, wouldn't it be cool to drive your STI to school and not worry about that stuff.

I often park far or honestly, I get a close park to the door...sometimes when people see my car I find they appear to be more careful lol.

After having parts stolen off it, door dings and a key mark or two it was no longer cool to drive it everyday.

arrrg, where has the respect for another mans car gone

As for OP, good thing it was a plastic covered cart, not the all metal rusted kind

This was coming back to the Z when I took it to school during finals last semester

I carry those cones...jk Someone put them there after I parked there, and I came back to a pleasant surprise. haha.

NO ONE CAN PARK NEXT TO ME THIS WAY

Sure they can. The Scion can just back up right next to you.

Haboob · 04-23-2013, 03:23 PM

I'm going to buy four cones and carry them at all times.

Yea also thankfully no cracks or anything, I will have to further inspect. But In the picture, at first I thought it was full contact with front bumper, but when I got closes they wheels are the front hit the bottom spoiler thing, which prevented the top of the cart to hit the paint with much force.

yeah we both got lucky.. i had another near miss at target believe or not. this was back maybe 2 years but it was night time and i would park way way out in the lot to where m GF would bitch.. so we are walking out to the car and there is this 80 year old lady in a buick driving across the lot ( not up and down the lanes) and she is way out where my car is... its dark outside and my car is black...she misses it by maybe 3-4 feet never hits the brake never sees it just keeps on.... my GF starts laughing at me saying thats what i get for parking out so far like a dumbass....

so man its random **** happens... thats why 99.999% of the time when im at a place like target walmart the mall ect... Im in my 05 NISMO frontier as its already scratched and dinged up so i dont care

There's been a lot of Z hating going on this past weekend. Don't really understand it. Either people try to hit me with their cars or it is some jack-knocker in a Frontier wanting to race or stupid, screwed up faces. I don't get it. Yeah it is a Z but it is also a car. Not a spaceship. People need to get a life and go about their own business. I blame social media.

Haboob · 04-23-2013, 09:03 PM

I had three people cut in front of me on the way home.

I leave 1.5+ car lengths (or 2 sec. of space at times) for a reason, and it's not for you to pull in front of me, then slow the F down or just stay there and throw rocks up at me...
