It was an IS300 and I would never valet my car. Giving a jamoke a RWD car is never a good idea. And none of these people notice burnt rubber on their car and a wheel wells?

When I roll up with my motorcycle, they usually just direct me where to park it.

When I was a teenager I used to valet cars in china town in LA. We used to rev up the V8's to hear them but no hardcore drift action

I do sometimes, but I pay extra to have it parked with the Lambo's, Ferrari's, etc.

Even though i drive a 9 year old es300, i refuse to let people valet park it. In most cases im younger then the people who are the valet parkers but still, i don't trust anyone with my car, paranoia thing i guess. Although one time i did let them valet park my car, but the spot was literally 50 yards away and in between a s600 and a sc430 so i didn't worry haha

Ever since that Seinfeld episode with the Valet and the BO, I stop letting the valet park my car
