Actually, I was thinking to do the same thing, but I don't think I can stand the humiliation from co-workers.
At home, it in the garage

Since we converted our garage into a entertainment room, i park out on the street
however, i have a friend named Petey whos a dwarf, and also happens to love Lexus cars.
i managed to get a really good rate on the best alarm system ever. Petey the dwarf sleeps in the backseat of my car and is armed with a taser. If someone tries to steal my car, they get tasered in the neck by Petey.
If anyone does a hit and run, he can get the license plate # since he's right there, and he's also a really light sleeper, so if someone attempts to do something like throw eggs at my car, he'll wake up and taser them, proceeding to hogtie them, keeping the vandals in custody until i wake up in the morning (Petey knows very well not to wake me in my sleep, i love to sleep).
I know what you're thinking, how is a dwarf gonna subdue me? i can just run away or beat him up, there's non way a dwarf can do anything to me! WRONG! petey can and will kick your *** in a second if you try anything funny.
So it looks like although I park on the street, I got every single one of you beat in terms of alarm systems. (unless of course some of you have Guard Bears...those things are awesome)

Darius, hate parking outside at night, car picks up leaves and other crud - they get down in the body cavities and clog the drains - causes rust
no substitute for a garage!
Swap you for California

Sorry Parula, not even earthquakes, firestorms, or fog can get me out of Cali 
When I got the GS, the Mitsubishi got kicke dout of the garage. I just had to start parking the Mitsubishi outside and it was filthy after 1 DAY. It's foggy here in SF, especially at night, it's like living in the middle of a cloud. The car was so caked up with tree droppings, water spots, and leaves! I'm looking for a good car cover now
It even even runs different. Maybe from the cold. But I hate when some little pimply faced teenager at the grocery store is collecting carts and doesn't see the BIG FLASHING RAD NEON SIGNS around my car that says LOVED BY OWNER. I swaer everytime I go to Costco, theres a new scratch!!!

Always garaged except when I go home. I hate leaving it on the driveway because the sprinklers ALWAYS get the whole car soaked and leaves the biggest whitest spots that dont come off unless you wash the car 3 or 4 times. Damn recycled water!

On the last, fourth floor, of the parking decks in out 25 story apt. building. Unfortunately, there is a huge openning and 2 ft of the hood are exposed and on occassion decorated by thrown fries and rubbish from walkways. I'm still planning a portable awning since the association won't allow permanent stuctures in the stalls. I am renting this double stall for the LS and the Miata for $50 per month. Not bad, I think.
