When you obsess about finding a 'safe' spot in a public parking lot, what do you find?

That you're not the only one!

Here's a sample of the cars parked near mine in a commuter lot in NJ (Central PATH parking in Harrison, for the locals):

Behind me: little red (C5) corvette

Help! I'm boxed in by Benz'es!

The S2K usually isn't too far away:

And waaaay over there in the corner:

Yes, that's an E46 3series, 2 silver S4s, and a Carrera4:

The aforementioned S4s are always in this spot...for some strange reason, an A4 or 2 is usually parked near them ;-)
Not today tho'...they're in more esteemed company:

I'd love to park next to my brethren, but I never get there early enough...I would gladly park the way the Porsche did

In addition to the Silvers, lately I've noticed a Santorin parked closer to the exit (never in a protected spot...tsk! tsk!)

So...the obligatory question...do any of these S4s belong to somebody on the forum?

Thank you for your patience...

Default HTML for Dummies works for me!

Actually, it was a Wrox press book ;-)
Since I used to manage a production group, I better damn well know how to do this stuff!

Default You know you're obsessing when...

you drive thru a supermarket parking lot and your 4yr old (who in other cars, helps you find the closest parking spot) says: "You don't like parking near other people, do you daddy?"

No I don't...that's why we should take mommy's car!

I hope it's a secure lot and not an open one.

Why do all you wealthy people live in Jersey anyway? Can't afford Manhattan rent?
