Parked across two "small car" stalls in a very busy parking lot, I spied this MR2 looking particularly asshattist in its display of pure asshattery and thought, "This asshat needs his picture took."

It should be noted that of the empty stalls you see, three cars literally just left while I was coming out of Tim Hortons and getting the camera app together.

How many flaws can you find in this parking job?

I'll start.

1.) It's not over $100k

2.) It's neither rare nor particularly special

3.) That paint? Really?!

4.) Your turn, Oppo.

Asshat parking job, but that really doesn't look riced at all. I see a stock SW20 with black wheels, no rice there just great taste (I love red on black and vice versa).

The value of the car doesn't matter.

It may not be riced, but it is rice. Rice, as in, from the land of rice. As in, Asian. As in, Japanese.

I didn't mean to offend. I can edit the title.

Disagree.

But let me ask you, then, why not let everyone take up as much space parking as they like? What's your litmus test?

Yeah, I'm getting a lot of flak on that.

All I was implying was that it was Asian. Japanese. That's all.

I'll edit the title.

I agree that it is an asshat parking job, but disagree almost entirely on #2. A car being special has a lot to do with how the owner views it.

I used to drive a Mitsubishi Eclipse, and while that car was neither particularly "rare or special" it meant the world to me. Then one day I went out to the parking lot at school and saw a huge dent in the drivers door (like as in someone hit it with their car rather than car door). For the next few days, I'll fully admit that I intentionally parked like an asshat (but at a far of the lot so as to inconvenience the lowest possible number of people). So while an MR-2 may not seem very special, it may mean quite a lot to the owner, and isn't that what really counts?

That's my point, no one should park like that, regardless of the car.

Yeah.

And I'm ashamed.

Oppo has shamed me.

Job done.

Let's move on :).

Allow me to define, or clarify, my intention with #3:

By "special" or "rare" I wasn't speaking subjectively or addressing the owners interest in their own car. I was speaking solely in terms of productions numbers, limited editions, special editions and so forth.

I own an S197 2006 V6 Mustang and it means the world to me.

Just the same, I'm not about to fuck someone else over because I feel more self importance about my car then they do.

That, my friend, is why we have insurance.

Agree.

Further, if you own a very expensive car you're afraid will get hurt, be a mature and responsible member of society and take that into account when you use the damn thing. Maybe also, don't expect other people to accommodate your self-important ass.

Right?
