luckily for me we have assigned parking. i ended up in front of my office and next to the island so i only have one coworker who parks on the drivers side of my car. her son works with us and he knows how much i love my car and that any ding or scratch he should put on, i'll notice. when i do go out though i usually look for larger spaces, or parking away from other coupes (as someone else mentioned the doors swing wider). no offense to other asians but i tend to be extra **** when i go to asian shopping squares as many of us (my family members included) wouldn't give a rats a$$ about grocery carts hitting my car, their kids swinging their doors on my car, etc...
