just got mine a few days ago and i hate parking her anywhere but my garage at home!

I park pretty much all by myself. Occasionally someone parks nearby, but everyone that parks far away tends to leave an empty space between cars.

i have to put mine in a crowded multi story garage, there are pretty much never any spots left open. if i can i try and put it on the corner next to the painted fire zone, but if someone gets the corner spot on the other row atatched to it it's too close.

I park in a commuter lot. I try to park on the end, but that's not always possible.

I work with all women so parking is always a very scary situation. Lucky for me there is a corner space that is twice as wide as my car that I claim.

I park in the front of our building, where customers park, but on the end that no one ever really parks unless it's packed, which is rare.

I kinda am that asshole that double park in the parking lot but its in a corner. My workplace has PLENTY of free spaces so no one really ever call me out. Most of my co workers usually just compliment on how she looks and move on.

As far away from everyone else as I can. Usually with the other one or two car enthusiasts at work who dont mind walking a bit for the safety of their paint.

There's a 5 story parking garage at my work that is at worst 40% full. Since the day I've started working there I've never had anyone park next to me. It's awesome.

The place that I work at has a free company lot that's all the way out in the middle of nowhere by a UPS hub that shares the lot and parks their semi's there. There's basically no far away spot in that lot, so I refuse to park there. The day after I got my car I signed up for a monthly pass at a parking garage closer to where I work. It's expensive, but at least my car is safe and the walk is shorter, which is good in the winter.

I found a spot in the garage that's between a pillar and a crosswalk so no one can park next to me on either side. There's four spots like that where I park and at least two of them are always open.

in a lot a couple hundred yards away from the main lot, it stays relatively empty, and I have no problem grabbing a corner spot. there is a z4 and a carrera that park there too, so I usually try and nab a spot next to them.

Rear Parking lot at work. Not many people park there because it's just a little further to walk to the front door. I park at the very end of the row.
