I pull in. The car is small enough that it really doesn't matter.

I always back that ass up! Sometimes I'm too tired in the evening and it's hard to judge the distance to the curb. So I back it up so I don't scrape my lip.

Some parking lots in Nazifornia have signs stating pulling in front first is absolutely required. I've also gotten a parking ticket for backing in before.

I'm fine with people backing in though, as long as they can fucking drive. I HATE HATE HATE when people back in, end up parking at a 45 degree angle across 2 spots and block you in... and rather than fixing their shit parking job, they say fuck it and leave it as is and bang their door against your car on their way out.

This is common in South Orange County

95% of the time I back in. I usually only pull in if I'm in a busy area and it's not feasible.

I'd probably back in more if I didn't have the '16 with the ever useful reverse camera. So yeah, pulling in ftw!
