I for one, always put my head out the window, don't trust the camera, and can park well, and quickly using my method.
Only drawback is turning with the "tight" turn side being the passenger side. Have always parked this way. Don't get me wrong, I can and will use other methods, but my go to method is the head out the window. These are tougher to park than standard cars and SUVs. In time, you will get used to it. I find it harder to pull into a spot with a curb. Will be worse now that I installed my splitter.

Thanks guys. I was actually parking in a lot at the mall tonight and thought I got in straight. This wasn't backing in just going in head first. I got out and I was totally crooked. I am learning to trust my mirrors but those diagonal blind spots are tough. I guess I can stick to the head out of the window until I can judge better. I never had a problem parking anything, for some reason I get anxiety when parking the camaro lol.

I paralleled once, against my better judgement. Guess what happened! I believe the first time I paralleled the Camaro was the first time I ever scraped the curb. Never again!

Install a rear camera one of my favorite features I'm thinking of getting one for the front if it's doable, I'm addicted to it, makes backward parking a dream

I don't have issues because I use my mirrors. They show you all the information you need if they are positioned correctly.
