FRS/BRZ Tactical Defense Strategy

[jellygorilla]

You park your vehicle in a galaxy far far away.
Some douchebag in a Shitbox Rustang finds out where you parked and just NEEDS to park next to your car. Because failure to do so will result in the death of his entire family held captive in a north korean nuclear bunker castle under the reign of glorious leader kim. I enjoy my run on sentence too yes dont worry i won't fix it just for you lovely grammar nazis
Now, how do we prevent them from slamming their car door into our god machines?
I personally recommend that you install flamethrowers to go off automatically but im also open for other suggestions.

Yes I mad.

Happened to me twice yesterday. Far corner of the lot, next to an island. Came out to find a civic next to me. Not a big deal, but the friggen lot was empty, park somewhere else! 2nd time, parked in the middle of a relatively empty lot. At least 10 empty spaces all around me. come out of the store and there's a Focus parked next to me. WTF? Friggen BRZ is an Asshat magnet.

I am thinking about install micro motion sensitive cameras strategically in/on the car. I have to park my car on the side of the road (ie no parking spot) and I get spooked every night someone is going to plow into it or vandals

Get some cheap yellow construction caution tape, cheap pylons and some random fake tools, dig a hole if there's any grass nearby, put the tools nearby, and seal off the area with the caution tape. Oh, and put a hard hat on your passenger seat for added credibility.

Every time you get out of your car, surround it in highway cones. Also, hire Steven Seagal to stand guard.

I think people park near us so they can check out the car.

Two days ago I stopped at Lowes to pick up a couple of paint brushes on the way home after work. It was a nice day and I parked about 100 yards from the store with only about 2 cars on that entire side of the parking lot, when I came walking back out there were three cars sorta surrounding my car. LOL They drove off after I got close, but they had just stopped to check it out. No harm no foul, it is just sorta weird sometimes.

I had a somewhat similar experience with my Celica. I went to a Joanne Fabrics store to grab a photo frame. While waiting in the checkout lane, i saw a group of like 6 highschool-looking kids around my car. (The front of the store is 80% windows.) I was just thinking, "Oh great, hooligans." Then i saw one take out his phone and take some pictures and stuff. By the time i checked out, they had moved back to their car and their eyes were glued to me as i left the lot.

brotip: don't even bother parking far away from other cars, it just draws more attention to your car

think about it: much better to make your car inconspicuous than be a target.

just park next to someone that you think wont ding your car.

I'm sorry guys,i park next to you. I just have to until i get my own fr-s later this year :*(

i agree, i think our cars are a magnet for other cars. I park in a parking garage everyday and before i picked up my car, i scoped out where the least amount of cars parked.

I began parking there and instantly cars began parking in that area. i have no idea why and how this happens, but it just does.

So to compensate, i take up two parking spots and call it a day.

I walked out my front door last night only to discover some 40ish dude pacing down my driveway. First, I thought maybe it was an attempted robbery as the garage door was wide open with tools and stuff. Then as I protested, he said he was checking out my car. And his buddy was stopped in the middle of the road in a new M/B GL SUV waiting for him. They were Russians too, so maybe the SUV was hot and the FR-S was about to be another container casuality....wait, maybe that is with Africans...?
