Wow. Thats one hell of a pic.

If I remember correctly, the Galleria sued the plowing company claiming it was their fault. The garage was known as "the rollercoaster" because the plates had been sagging so deeply for so long a ride down an aisle resulted in some serious up and down action. Poor construction was the more likely cause, though the company that designed/built it says "no way".

My parking situation blows. Raised parking spaces because we're in a "flood zone" or whatever. I've never seen the water get very bad around here. I was concerned when purchasing the car, but never took the time to even see if I could get up w/o damaging me car. I actually did scratch a little of the skid plate a couple times, but now I've got it down. I do occasionally stall out getting the front half of the car up, but that's usually just me trying to keep the revs down.

Wow, you take your nismo to work, ey? Nice.

I have a dd since I need to carry my kids around. On that car (aka beater) its front lip is scratched up pretty good since its lowered on coilovers. Even parked at the pumpkin farm offroad lot. :D

My Z stays home. :p

Wish I had that luxury, my Nismo is my dd and I don't even have a garage :(
hopefully down the road I'll have a dd like an altima or something then keep my z and get some 240s to play with.

Wow, I am so glad I have a garage. I would be sick to my stomach parking outdoors. I am so OCD I don't even park my Z in parking lots. I drive one of my other cars if I need to go to the store or run errands. I've just had too many stupid things happen to my different cars over the years when parked in public places. Anything from shot out windows with a pellet gun, to bricks thrown at the car doors. Some people just live to mess up something nice. Very sad really... I guess thats the price you pay living in the city.

I've been broken into at some apts earlier, twice. Other than that though I've been lucky. 2-Way remote start alarm, tint, sun visor (makes the car very dark inside at night), and I'm very anal about where I park. I've only had a garage living at one place of many over the years and I had a very crappy car while I had it. I'm most worried about the elements, and unfortunately I have to put up with a slightly dirty car a lot of the time. I keep my detail box with me and try to take car of anything obvious or abrasive. Sucks, but it's worth it. :driving:

Do they not rent garages at your place? I hope the breakin's weren't on your Z...??? I think the wheels locks were a wise decision since you're parking outside.
