Where do you park your Z

Taking up two spots is the biggest douche move you can do with a car. Every time I see this, it's always someone with a car that really isn't worth

Wow so many people hating on the poor OP

Parking close and taking two spots, that a no-no. Taking two spots in a city like DC/NYC or where space is at a premium, no-no.

But I use to live out in North Carolina, where the parking lot had 200 spots for 30 cars, and i would take up 2 spots at the back back end where the wildlife roamed. **** move? I guess, but really I wasn't taking a spot from anyone, and I was so far out probably noone even saw :P

As the OP, I really have been thinking that I should have just kept my thoughts to myself..... I certainly didn't expect to be considered the biggest douche-bag this side of the Mason/Dixie...and to your point..I don't live in DC, nor do I live in New York. Hell, I don't even live in Central Florida... I live on the east coast of Florida and, as stated in the opening post, "I generally park out beyond the mass populous".

So, in closing, my much-hated-upon douche-bag self will retain the space of a single spot....but in the far far regions of the galaxy where nobody will be offended by my Z34's presence.

It's not a **** move, it's just lame and everyone who sees your car parked like that thinks you're a douche. Your car isn't an exotic, it's a 370Z.

When I'm out in the suburbs driving around for work, I always see this STI parked way out in the corner of this lot, sideways across two spots. This is not a lot where parking spots are at a premium, so he isn't stealing a spot from anyone. Every time I see this car, I think:

1. I wonder if that guy knows that everyone in that building thinks he's a douche for parking his car like that?
2. Nobody cares about your stupid STI, brah.

You know those Miller Lite commercials where the guy always get called out by the hot female bartender? The two-space parker is like one of those guys.
