I think he was referencing the air humping

So, after nearly 2 years do you still like the BRZ? Anything the rest of us should know about?

Park next to a nice vehicle you figure a man would be driving.

I find young women are the worst, even if they are driving decent cars.

I always try to park so that at least one side of my vehicle can't be parked up against.

Also, in the first video, he wasn't in a turning lane. Yeah, he was driving like shit but you were driving through parking spaces. If he hit you and you were trying to use that as evidence I'm wondering if it would have backfired on you.

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.

If we're going with personal experiences, I drive fairly large 2010 RX350 and park as close to the door as I can pretty much everywhere (mall, work, school) and have since the summer of 2010. It has 45k on it now. There is not a single door ding on my car.

I suppose my door could hit your rocker panel if I was trying..............

I REALLY hope you took the time to report them. I just watched the entire video and it was actually kind of scary to watch.

[TM]

These videos make me want to get a dashcam. I know the Blackvue does HD recording, but it is clear enough to capture the license plate number of someone parallel parking in front of me? I can't tell from the YouTube clips. When I had my previous car, every time I visit my parents in NYC for a weekend, I would always get an extra ding or two in my front and back bumpers. No off-street parking.
