It's an old pic, but at work, I look for this guy or one of a hanfull of others to park next to. I figure they care too...

I do the same thing anywhere I go. btw, where did you two get that sweet tag mod?

Yea, I figure you don't have to worry about the sweet Charger banging up your car.

How did the guy in the white van get his/her door open. looks about 2 inches from the charger. Maybe just the camera angle.

Looks like a good spot until idiots start walking around those storage buildings with shopping or lumber carts trying decide if they want to buy one of those over priced buildings. At least you don't have to worry about other cars though which is always good.

Ha, its so far away from the building, the lazy baztards wouldn't push a cart that far.....
But seriously, it was just a good photo op..... I wouldn't have done it if I was going in there for a long time...just a quick in and out for one item.
I had a thread on it because while getting back to the car another patron gave me a dirty look and shook his head at me for parking there. wanted to know if anyone thought it was a d--- move for parking there.

Could be another Camaro owner giving you some safety. I know when I see another Camaro and I have one of my other cars I try to offer one side of protection.

Agreed. The car next to Storm Trooper is parked in the best parking spot on the lot for visibility and ease of access ... both easy to enter and exit the space safely due to much better visibility of traffic coming in and out. It also allows the passenger door to be opened fully allowing passenger to exit vehicle without bumping a neighboring car or if they have large items they need to pull out from the passenger side of the car.

TBH, the spot next to his Camaro is one that I would likely park in with or without my Camaro.

It's not illegal to park in multiple spots, people just frown upon it.
