I parked my White BMW 335i Sport Coupe away from others all the time. Definitely a "look at me" car. Wal-mart, target, etc... Not so much as a scuff in 2 1/2 years. That's not possible parking next to old people. They'll prop their door on the side of your car so they can lean there diabetic fat ass on their door to get in and out of their car. They are not interested or even aware of how nice your car is or if you seem to care about it. Good luck parking among whoever.
Vandalism happens but it is relatively rare compared to carelessness and there's no telling what drives the demented perpetrators. Park next to two door cars, pickups and SUVs and you can be assured of plenty of door dings.
