Mine is DIRTY, hence the pic from far away!

My OCD at work. Always as close to the column as I can get it.

Your steering wheel is on the wrong side! ^^

sacowich · 05-11-2024, 10:24 AM

Far corner. I’ll walk rain on shine, thank you very much.

Some times you just park wherever and whenever.

OGs always welcome. You apexed that line well.

End spots only

BMR.WRLD · 05-15-2024, 06:38 PM

When I go to Gringos. Always park on the side, packed or or not. I'm still not at the point of parking my car just anyway. But I see cars even more expensive do it. But even in my honda I'm the same even now, guess it's just me.

Brave, very brave.
I have trouble reversing this car. The ass is soooo wide I always wind up crooked.

Geighty7 · 05-15-2024, 10:38 PM

One of us is parked right and it’s not me (ZB).

DarkNight707 · 05-16-2024, 12:06 AM

Hugging the column. Was so distracted never saw the reserved sign and got a nice warning! They noted the car as a “blue” M2. LOL!

To be fair, he was there first and I got the front spot lol. Didn't want to be too close to the red line and misjudged it. I was also the first to leave though 😎

That must be a fun parking ramp to drive in being able to hit the top speed of the M2 (without the M Drivers Package).

My condo garage has small parking spots. Thankfully the person next to me is respectful of dinging my doors so I try to give him space...

I assume you have this parking job down to a science for being comfortable continually parking that close. Kudos.

So yes - an attitude problem for sure.

The above was stated about Europe

Live in Europe and I wish this was true, unfortunately we have the ”attityde challenged people” here as well. Tiny parking spaces and public garage designers who probably never have driven a car in their life. I have gotten scratches and nicks on cars

Polished one just a few weeks ago, luckily I could polish it out.

BroDoze · 05-21-2024, 10:36 PM

WTF

THAT is close

Sorry to hear about your scratches, hoping at came out good. But the way most people treat their cars (and other cars) here in America is next level appalling.
