So I'll start off saying my got got a boot for a legitimate albiet rediculous reason. At my friend's townhouses there are parking spaces for permits and guests. Mind you they all have garages and the permit spaces sit empty 24/7, most guest do as well. Anyways I parked in a permit space without a permit for about 45 minutes and come out to a guy leaving after booting my car. I stop him and have him remove it, for $150. Whatever. I messed up I'll pay the fine. But wait, I have a set of 18" RX8 rims that I had acid stripped and repowder-coated and cleared at a cost of several hundred dollars and they are in *mint* condition. Or atleast, 3 of them are now. I've got three huge gouges, one of which goes below the powder to raw aluminum. I was gonna sell those rims for a CAI and NOWEEDS on the 'maro. Waiting on Tempe Police to come make a criminal damage report instead of sleeping before work tomorrow. Sweet.

I'm glad nobody 'boots' in Canada. I think it's illegal or something?

In london, england its legal to do it to anyone (no parking violations) I think... then I would make it legal for myself to beat them the hell up.
