I took this on my way to work in Carlsbad one morning about two years ago, when I had a 911. For some reason the to little chicas in the car couldn't figure out why I was taking a picture of the car...

It's a lot cheaper than buying the real thing.

Just like the AMG and //M posers, sort of.

A parking fail. Must be the law of the universe, the further over the car is invariably some lame driver will come over the line and get within door ding range. This driver was no different. These are decently wide spaces but you can see how well this person did. I was telling the wife that this driver has no sense of what the parking stall line is painted for. Just as I turn around, a female walks up to the car. Figures...

I couldn't get a photo, but it was a new Kia Optima with "L" badges and a TRD badge on the sides.

I wish I could've gotten the photo because he was stopped behind a '13 ISX50... Classic.

Seems pretty common to find other manufacturer wheels on cars these days. BMW Style 95's and these Carlsson wheels from MB on the Celsior look pretty good.

He drives just as bad as his car looks:


Oh, and there is another 4x4 emblem on the opposite side, in case other people can't see from either side.

If I had the phone handy, I could post up a good number of parking fail pics. Ironically, three of the last ones are by Lexus drivers, like this:
