Why buying a Ferrari if you can't park?

I think you could hand her the keys to anything and she wouldn't be able to park it.

Is that not the ugliest Maybach that goes by on the street? Ack!

You know some females are just not meant to drive cars like these. She is one of those females.

The only FAIL i see in this video is that Maybach that passed by.

Its a one way street so if you are sticking out a little bit just like she was it's not that big of a deal.

She may not have done it perfectly the first time but I've seen worst parking attempts. At least she got in the lines without curbing her wheels or hitting the other cars.

If I had a Ferrari I wouldn't be street parking it.

+1 on ugly pants.

Ehh, that's nothing compared to the women driving big suvs here.
For one, they can't see over the dashboard. They either can't park (straight in) or reverse (have you heard of a 5+ point reverse), while holding on their phone

At least she didn't smack the cars in front and behind her while curbing the wheels-now that's a fail

Lol shouldn't be driving a car like that if you can't even park it! But i see this everyday, especially when im working in the LA area. I can see if you can't park it the first, maybe second time, but i've seen people that even after 5+ tries cannot get the car into the spot haha

What is the problem with this woman's parking job? When you are driving a $200k plus Ferrari, you must be extra vigilant. It's better be careful than hitting somebody's cars. Those people were helping her to look at the front and the back. Frankly the space isn't that big and they wanted her to park perfectly. I wonder if so many guys would help if the driver was a male.

If I drove a ferrari, I would get and and check at every point to keep my car scratch free. The only thing wrong with that video is her red pants
