Parking the car's butt in first is a better way of parking. You just have to do it correctly.

Default I thought that was a Honda at first until I saw the wheels! I've seem...

...two IS' in the past week and I was not all that impressed. Sure, they're nice, but so small and those taillights...ugh! The lights weren't too bad (but not to my liking) on the silver one I saw, but on the black one I wanted to puke. Reminds me of the Ricers with the cheapo Matchbox car type clear tails. Anyway, I don't see why they cost so much. They remind me of a higher performance version of a Corolla.<p><img SRC="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/AudiWorldPics/2000/A4xtsg5.jpg" BORDER=0></a>

Default Actually, I think black is the ugliest due to the clear taillights.

Default Yeah... yuck is right. On the other hand, there's nothing cuter than the A4's butt.

What a piece o' ***

Default Oh, and I have a story about backing in to parking spots! :-)

I ran into a couple friends at the grocery store about a week ago and we were talkingin the parking lot when this riced up Civic Coupe drives in. Well, we start laughing at this awful looking piece of work while the guy pulls up to a spot, stops, and then backs in. A few minutes later, another riced Civic Coupe pulls in, stops, and backs into the spot next to the other guy, but he's not as good and has to make a couple corrections ont he way in. He also has an automatic transmission! So, we are talking away while these guys check out one anothers ride and about ten minutes later another riced Civic Coupe pulls in, but this one atleast doesn't have the basket handle wing on the back and is somewhat tasteful, but still ricey and with yet another automatic transmission. Anyway, this one pulls in forward and we all burst out in laughter and I said to my friends "watch; this guy will pull out and turn it around when the others tell him he should." Well, what happened was even better! A girl got out of this one, handed her keys to the first guy and asked him to turn it around for her; I'm guessing because she couldn't back in herself. So here we are watching them as they get the cars all lined up so the cheap fake Xenon lights are showing. I just don't understand this trend! I'm so glad I got rid of my Civic Coupe before this whole ricer thing started on them. The car was a POS anyway, but still! I think it's all pretty humerous.<p><img SRC="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/AudiWorldPics/2000/A4xtsg5.jpg" BORDER=0></a>
