Vipervenom,

I was just wondering what that box is next to the viper with the wires going into the drivers side door and behind the car?

Wow that automated parking is awesome. Forget being afraid of Valet's messing up your car!

very good point! dont let anyone touch your car, much less drive it. you never know how they handle it and sometimes they might try to floor it, even if it's just to find a parking spot. ive never used valet with the F. always self park as far away from traffic or busy areas, but this automated parking system is very becoming. saw one near the pantages theater in los angeles, which i used to park my F before watching wicked last september. great price and better peace of mind!

That's really neat.. How long does it take for the machine to fetch your car? Also, what if you do a bad job of parking it in the platform? Does it guide you until you get it right? $35 is supposed to be cheap? Man, NY is crazy.

It's between Hester and Baxter near Chinatown. It's tucked in on Hester St but you can use the intersection as a reference. It's only $35 for 24 hours with tax.
