Show us your parking job - the M way

Parking across two spaces is a great idea until someone in a very large truck decides to purposely block you in.

Going to take a few weeks to dial in how close to pull up into spots 😀

Wait until you get a front lip. If I can back in I park with half my ass out.

Same. I’ve had my car for a year and still park ass half out because I don’t want to smash the splitter. Wish we could have optioned 360 cameras.

Lol

TallGibbs · 11-15-2024, 04:27 PM

Expect the lot to fill up tonight for our league games, so I grabbed the farthest away spot.

Saigonheat84 · 11-15-2024, 07:16 PM

the worst thing is coming back to your car and noticed some shitty vans or trucks happen to park like 7 inches next to your car when there are plenty of empty spots available in the lot. I think people always do this on purpose to tick other off.

Thankfully I have an understanding wife who’s used to me parking as far away from everyone else as possible 😂

shehatezme · 11-19-2024, 02:24 PM

Empty lot is the best lot

lambdalynx · 11-19-2024, 10:12 PM

Tight on the pillar for that extra gap

PNTDG42 · 11-29-2024, 07:36 PM

Not a M2, but I may have stumbled on the only place where people will appreciate this...

About 10 years ago they resurfaced the parking lot at my fathers condo. He always parked in the far back of the lot since I was a child. With this reconditioning of the lot, the association also assigned parking spaces for each unit and they all go in sequential order by condo #.

My father determined his spot was going to suck and be right in the middle of a row. He was able to convince the guys marking the lot to take his number out of the sequence and put it on the best spot in the house.

I attached a google earth screen shot where you can see his S5 expertly parked. In person its pretty comical when you look at the assigned spaces and how his number is missing from the numerical order.

Yeah I've seen a couple posts on redd!t where a surprisingly high number of insufferable people said they go out of their way to key or ram shopping carts into cars that are double parked, even if they're way back at the end of the lot and not bothering anyone..

This is messed up. The 911s should be on the outside protecting the bimmers.

The coveted 50 percenter spot. Safe on one side.

Yesiree. I always do a lap around to see if I can snag one of those.
