Nah..I wasn't that pissed...but more confused. His car was in very good shape, and didn't seem like he was the type to hit into another car.

You have a nice car. Enjoy it dude. Don't add to the BMW driver stereotype.


PS I'm just glad the minivan owner didn't over-react like you did. He's the bigger man b/c he walked away imho.
he's probably posting on a minivan forum about how some snob in a white BMW went crazy cuz he parked close to it...

it bothers me when people get uncomfortably too close to my car in traffic...
just cuz they have an SUV
I usually look at them and tell them "hey buddy... careful not to scratch my car... the paint job is worth more than your life"
yah.. I like belittling poor people...

LOL, dude that's CRAZY. I would have left him a note or one of those 'you park like an asshole" slips.

The world would be such a better place if everyone drove nice cars. That way everyone would try to park/operate with care and decency.

...why? The guy isn't parking like an asshole by being in the spot next to him. It's just random, even funny.

Also (and I'm not trying to contradict everything you say), just because someone drives a nice car doesn't necessarily mean that he/she will treat other cars with a higher level of respect. It all depends on the level of maturity of the person driving. There are chicks out there drivin, say, 6er's and SL's, or whatever nice car you can think of, that couldn't give a shit bout other people's cars.

Just rear end the van and call the cops saying she backed into you. Her bumper is well over the line so you'd win this arguement.

I like the way you think. Personally, if somebody parked right next to me in a totally empty parking lot I would slash one of their tires. That is just me though.

Visit Europe. Go to Italy, France, what have you.

You'd have to have a talk with every driver because the parking over there makes this stuff child's play.

You shouldn't make another human being feel like crap over some materialistic property which he didn't even TOUCH. Damn what a loser mentality you got dude.
+ fucking 1

OP making a big deal out of nothing. I've had ppl park MUCH closer to me in front and in the back.
