It seems just about every time I try this method, the car that parks next to me will not centre their car within the white lines but relative to my vehicle and the next spot. In other words they cheat their asses way over almost intentionally far enough so that any advantage you take is negated. My Z is ding free (knock on wood), I a super paranoid of some careless **** ruining my ding free Z. I'll park way at the back of any lot just to help avoid the asshats.

This garage is on a corporate campus, so if you are parking in it, you work here. I took the pic because the next time it happens I plan to chat with this person's manager.

However in case of a fire alarm I would run and get the car and myself the hell out of the parking garage before the fire trucks get there and have the time to... Because it doesn't matter if you are park right in your spot your car will get some type of damage, because they don't care when there is a fire...

Firemen don't care. I've seen it and it is funny. And actually most states or cities have laws or ordinances against parking next to a fire hydrant. Usually at least 20 or 25 feet away. And if you do park next to one be prepared to possibly not see your car when you get back lol.

And it's not that they don't care, it's they can't care. How can they baby your car when there are lives to safe?? Here in Canada too, if you park your car next to a fire hydrant on the street, you will get a huge ticket... |

I feel for you. I will take a pic of my parking spot, and then you can understand the craziness when I tell you about the 1935 mustang POS that parked way over the line and dinged my door anyway... Asshat.
