When i go out to a restaurant i gotta always park as close as i can to the windows and keep an eye on my baby while im eating........what date? haha

The downside is people flinging their doors open so if its a place with no windows or i wont be able to see my baby i park her in the most open spot where people wouldnt want to park anyway cuz its to far hehe

I always look back after I park it. Usually more than once. And I stare at it while walking towards it. What can I say? It's sexy...but I know I don't have to tell you guys that!

Almost ashamed to say it considering how long I've owned the coupe...But after owning an 03 and currently an 05..I'm still lookin back smiling. After three years (check my join date) my girlfriend has come to accept it and doesnt think I m crazy anymore. I look more than twice and park only where i can see the car so I'm constantly checking up on it. Its kinda funny how many members on this forum do this....lol

Not only do I still do the "look-back", I even make a special trip to the garage a couple times a week just to steal a glance. Twisted!

Funny @ss thread, LOL, I just bought my 04 G35c 6spd on Saturday, I have found myself doing the same thing, my wife thought I had issues but I guess it's a normal thing (the honk 2-3 times, the sitting by the view of it in a restaurant, the look back 2-3 times) LMAO

I park far away in an open area with no cars around. I look back just as I leave the car and again just before she is out of sight. I try to find a seat in restaurants where I will be able to see the great view provided by my G, alone, way out in the open. I've had mine for over 4 years - it doesn't go away. It does seem to be a truck magnet though. Even when I park 20 spots away from the closest car there is often a pickup truck right beside it when I come back!?!?!

I still do that. I thought about this thread after I did it this morning - lol! I've never done that with any other vehicles I've owned. Gotta love the G!

Shoot...I do all that, and even take it farther! I'll sit in a lawn chair in the garage sometimes when I'm drinking and just smile!!

Truck and minivan magnet. You park out in the boondocks and come back to find one of those parked thisclose to you. I get the heebie jeebies thinking about children piling out of them with paint scratching zippers.

It''s the one thing they don't warn you about when you buy this car..."The Lookback" is should be in the list of features. It seems we all do it. I've even forgotten things on purpose so I have to go back to the car during work, just to check on her and see what parked next to me. My husband can't believe I actually get pissed when someone takes my end spot on the fourth floor of the public parking lot, it is mine you know!!!
