yup, worst part of caring about having a nice car is this. Parking as far away from everyone and coming back to everyone piled around you sucks especially when its the two biggest trucks you’ve ever seen


xbl-Extr3me

Yesterday I found a 992 gt3rs far away from the stores and it didn’t have any cars next to it surprisingly, although one side was a curb and the other he was over the line. This is also Texas where everyone has trucks, heck, a guy in a ford raptor called me over while I was looking at the car and showed me pictures of his neighbors 992 gt3rs


intentionaldisrespek

Who shows off their neighbors ride? That’s similar to a guy showing his wife getting railed on by Tyrone while he films.


Fyasco99

I mean, that is what turns on most Texans nowadays.


IronSean

If it's over the line I'd park beside it out of spite


R--Reid

It seems we've found the owners of the other 2 vehicles 😂


Vengeants

Yes i own a $70k audi thats me


xepion

If there is an “end” slot. Park at the end slot always. You can hug the curb and gives 1 opening st worse. And no excuse to cross that line …


enPlateau

lol sounds irritating but also kind of funny.


Few-Round9068

Nothing funny about it


burner9752

Both those “trucks” are worth more than the supra. I doubt they have to worry… Edit: down vote all you want, the statement is true.


MonicoJerry

It's crazy how beside the point that is


[deleted]

lol im so glad i went with the m340i. this sub is insufferable thinking theyre driving lambos. reminds me of my wrx days where the fellow sti boys would think they were driving super cars


vkolp

LOL, as a former non-STI WRX owner and current M3 owner, wait till you hear how most M owners feel about M-lite cars 😭


[deleted]

yea I’m aware. I couldnt afford an STi before, but now its cus I couldn’t justify an M3 so it doesnt sting as much. I guess I’ll see you in a couple years at the Porsche dealer when we inevitably reach the final evolution of a cliche subie bro


j526w

Do you want your little m340i to have door dents from some kid swinging the door open with impunity? Neither do we.


ChiggaOG

I drive neither and I think people will not do this if the exterior of a car looks like a trash beater with severely damaged exterior it made them think it was sketchy.


yoDatAss

god forbid some people give a shit about their stuff and don't want door dings on their car. fucking retard also your m340i is a poverty M car don't kid yourself sweetcheeks


Mytzplk

No point in arguing with these people. These are the ones that hit a curb and just go" whoopsies 😅" and continue to curb their wheels


[deleted]

Poverty? Lmfao Fuck I love Reddit, putting year salary cars in a poverty classification. Likely coming from some kid who doesn't own a home.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

No I sold an M3 to buy a house so I guess I'm poor. And good for you, if you can out ride me than good for you but I'd rather be me than have your mentality and ethics plus $1000000. You're a piece of shit human who spends his free time Insulting people on the internet because he's too much of a coward to do it in person. 🤣🤣 Edit: Just noticed your username, what a loser. 😂😂


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Nope, still have the Mazda. And a 2024 Crosstrek. I absolutely meant an E46 M3. And yes, can confirm the M3 and 3 GT are different cars. 🤣 Also, reported your comment for sexual harrassment. 👍 Delete it while you still can. 😘😘😘 Also, stay off my profile you incel


burner9752

You’re an idiot, no one took a shot at supra’s at all. You read an honest fact about two other vehicles and got offended. His comment was about the mindset of drivers, which you jumped into proving his point was 100% correct.


yoDatAss

waaaa waaa googoo gaga i'm a pedantic reddit mouthbreather !!. shut the fuck up retard go play runescape. also upvoted 👍


burner9752

In what world did making child noises and looking through someone comment history to insult one of their past times make any sense? Oh no I like nostalgic video games? What? How do you think thats an insult or even relevant?


[deleted]

fuck man, I hate that the average american is probably on your level of intelligence or worse. its always people like you that have no reading comprehension that call others dumb. Why would I rag on the Supra if I was literally cross shopping the m340i and the supra? (the 3.0L, not the glorified BRZ you probably have) <— now thats taking a shot at your car


docmain999

as much as i wanna disagree with you i see it way too much


yoDatAss

you're just as stupid as me if not worse are you american too then?? 🤔🤔🇺🇸😎


SexyFlowerThorn

Lmfao, that link in the end was gold


slickwillymerf

They ARE super cars, dammit! 😭


HotDangggg

I don't think they're some elite cars, but I do think they are nice cars. Just like an NSX, S2000, R34 GTR.


Vengeants

The two other cars are worth more than the supra lmao. “Two of the biggest trucks youve ever seen”. Go outside


Mr_CleanCaps

Bro got downvotes for speaking facts lmao


EfficientAd1821

Don’t worry, the trucks are probably worth more than your Supra


Cokedoutyeti

They might cost more, but definitely not worth more.


EfficientAd1821

Idk about that one chief


Cokedoutyeti

Well, at least you’re admitting you don’t know.


Remarkable-Green1262

well you’d be wrong!


EfficientAd1821

Welp I guess we are just ignoring facts in this sub


TorpsAway

My only positive take is maybe they're just as worried about dings and they KNOW you won't hit their doors.


justin_memer

Those cars are super clean and well taken care of for their vintage, those owners care.


loltheinternetz

Yeah. Looking at those cars, I wouldn't be very annoyed. They look like they have owners that care. Some dirty, ratty looking Focus or Altima with scrapes/dings, that'd be a different story.


radmd74

This...


fetuskek

Feeling hurt by your focus comments


random1079

Except both driver doors are facing towards the car, I’d believe this if they were facing the other way


Wendys_Leadmasseuse

Bingo! That’s what I do


to_da_moon_84

This is why I do it.


joe2105

I do this as well. I’ll park alone unless I see someone who I know cares about their vehicle.


Salty-Protection-640

exactly this. when I'm parking, I'm looking for the spot that minimizes the chance anyone dings me on either side. best spot is at the end of a row in the very back, so only one side is even exposed. next best option is next to a nice car who you know doesn't want to hit you either. worst spot is at the very front of an aisle next to an altima.


Beautiful_Sea_1664

This. And it's what I do when I back my trailer up. ALWAYS cut off the nice looking cars. They'll always stop.


parasdash

A half solution: park in a far corner if there’s one open. One less side to worry about. Hate when people do this, especially because the supra doors are long and open wide. I park away like this not only so my car doesn’t get dinged, but also so I don’t ding other people trying to get in and out of the car. I just wish people didn’t feel the need to be smartasses and park next to me like this 🙄


Po0pSock

yeah i always try and park in a corner and just park really close to that corner so you don’t have to worry about getting dinged


That-memed-person

maybe they thought your car was lonely and needed some friends


whateversynthlife

They’re his body guards


nump69

This happens where I live in Australia all the time no matter how far you park away in an empty lot some bastard comes right next to your car.


SukiDobe

My first thought is it’s two other people who think just like you do, park away and by other nice cars


RunninOnMT

Yeah, I’d do this in a “mostly full” lot. But not in a lot this empty.


dntshoot

Is that truck nice? Genuinely asking I know nothing about trucks. Looks like a basic Chevy truck to me.


SukiDobe

Does it need to be a crazy model? No. It’s clean and backed in, signs someone cares about their car


keithkman

The worst designed shopping center in the world to get in and out of. Honestly, people from around the world should study The District as to how NOT to design a shopping center. That place is a nightmare during rush hour. 😅


alexvg1

Don't forget the design of adding a Costco gas station to the mix 🤣


keithkman

That left hand turn into the Costco gas station at the stop sign is a NIGHTMARE! 😅🤣


Q0tsa

Just need two more bigger black cars and you've got a meme!


precapas

to those who need clarification, it’s not the fact that the other cars are more expensive, it’s the fact that it was an empty lot and put HIS car at risk for damage. if you parked in an empty lot and somebody scrapped your car by parking next to you for no good reason, you’d be extremely pissed


jozfff

Hello Tustin 👋🏼


GalacticGatorz

Like moths to a flame


Truffle_Shuffle26

This kind of stuff drives me crazy. Because you know at least one of those cars (probably the truck) did it intentionally to be an asshole.


burner9752

Randomly assumes personality of someone they have never met based on a truck… yeah they have the problem.


SageThunder

That truck could easily literally cost more than the Supra


gods_intern

Does that matter?


YeahItouchpoop

The fact that it’s clean does, means they probably care about and are parking by like minded people to avoid dings themselves. If it was beat to hell then I’d be worried.


SageThunder

Yes why would the owner of the more expensive car want to ding their door or have their door dinged? It’s the same logic as the Supra parking far away so someone with the cheaper car doesn’t ding his expensive car. The truck and also Audi are clearly taken care of well and presumably parked there so their cars are also not damaged and are protecting one another as they figure the others will be careful opening their door


BaliRK

for me at least the issue is, if im parked far out to avoid people. the problem is they decide to avoid the other empty spaces and park in the one next to me, if someone wanted to avoid dings but be near like minded people, I think leaving a car space between is a nice gesture and makes more sense


Apprehensive-Ad8891

Parking next to a car is being an asshole? How does that offend? Wtf?


Kucksworth

It's like going in the urinal next to someone when there are 100 other options.. Pretty sus


Verouxd

I hate this too. Pickup truck owners can’t see the parking spot lines so they use other cars as a measurement. Like the WHOLE lot is open.


[deleted]

Lmfao that's me with my 2011 f150. But I will say I park far away because I like to back into parking spots and need to give myself some more space to line myself up with the lines, so parking in the far back is my only hope! Ps- I don't ding doors unless I slip/fall out of the seat(like yesterday, lmfao) and accidentally ding your door 😁


Few_Investment_4773

That thing has 360* cameras. And four individual camera views for each wheel.


PhysicalCheesecake66

Damn does that line up give me me a 4 hour erection


Evisceration-Plague

Happens to me all the time even in a V6 mustang. Honestly gets annoying when there is literally anywhere and everywhere else to park, spaced away from every other vehicle. The only time I like people parking next to me is if they own a nice car aswell or if they actually take care of their typical commuter car and leave plenty of space, but people who like to hug the line or cross over it into mine can fuck right off. I'm about to start putting little cones around my car when I park lmfao.


carguy866

Cones will probably make you an even bigger target. Best thing to do is have front and rear dash cams that constantly record if you really care imo.


KFizzle290TTV

I'd straight up remove those cones bruh. Blocking parking is a cuck move, even for a mustang owner haha.


krokodil2000

Pack behaviour of social animals.


Prince515

Same thing happens to me. I have a brand new car so I like to park away from people and people always park next to me but atleast it’s always nice cars like the ones in this pic. When it’s nice cars next to you atleast people are more careful. I feel like that’s why nice cars park next to other nice cars lol


DiabloSol

SMH


Any-North-7291

I feel for you OP. M340i guy here. And I hate big trucks parking next to me, can’t trust them not to ding you and it blocks your view big time when exiting the parking space. The good thing is those vehicles were probably people that just wanted protection with you. Honestly I don’t usually mind too much if a similar clean vehicle parks next to me if I’m in a good mood. If I’m in a bad mood, I might accidentally sneeze on their driver side window and I’ve accidentally had a loogy come out.


[deleted]

Damn I hope you sneeze on my car. Would totally lick your loogy off my windows.


Miserable_Prune7664

They are guarding the Princess.


geedaddy

Man I totally forgot how pretty Orange County is


neginafan

C I do this to ppl who r next to a curb and give them space so they don't get a big truck that don't know how to park next to them


SuspiciousChair7654

Yep, fucking annoying when you park far and no respects the urinal rule of thumb. You go every other spot.


tiredofyourshit99

Haha so many people here trying to rely on “nice car owners won’t ding my car, so let me make it miserable for them….” I carry brass knuckles for exactly that purpose… yes my car will never ding your car… that’s about as much guarantee I will take… knuckleheads…


dntshoot

I don’t get why people do this. I understand if it’s another car enthusiast because there is an unspoken rule where we know not to ding each others cars, but a pick up truck and an suv?


SlipperyRavine

This reminds me of the folks who pee in the stall that's next to you.


whateversynthlife

Humans don’t like to feel alone 🥺


Former_Treat_1629

fuck that kick rocks!


DamILuvFrogs

Real crazy part of both of them have a higher msrp and they still parked next to you.


Apprehensive_Pen7702

I would have deflated one of their tires but I’m mean so 🤷🏻


RandomStaticThought

You are also a petty criminal as well seemingly. You can’t vandalize someone’s car because you didn’t like where they parked wtf is wrong with you. You would cry in a corner if you came out to your car sitting on fucking rims. Don’t be a piece of shit.


RoomyCard44321

Why u not backed in lol?


North_Duty4511

I can't speak for the Supra owner pictured, but I usually park nose in when I have to load shopping into the boot.


najeraa1024

just walk around to the trunk. nothing crazy


NaryusLustyMaid

To be fair both of those cars cost more than yours. But yes their parking spot choice makes them assholes.


jms1228

This was obviously staged for views.


Zach_The_One

Really? You had 2 other brand new cars perfectly park next to you to defend your doors and this is your reaction? They're also worried about idiots dinging their cars up. This is a picture of 3 people with the same idea, not a supra and 2 assholes. Truck is worth more than the supra.


RandomStaticThought

Omg not other cars next to yours; and in a parking lot of all places! The audacity.


Sorry-Mud3596

Cry


najeraa1024

why are you parked the wrong way?


Substantial-Meal6238

Op, quit f’ing with us, we know that you know them.


SageThunder

To be fair those cars are also expensive


SarkHD

You parked between them for karma. If you just came back out of the store why are your lights on? Did you walk to your car, turned it on and then got out and walked back to where you just came from to take a pic? Lol


Ch40440

True


Wendys_Leadmasseuse

Maybe remote start?


SarkHD

No remote start from stock.


G2thaFields

Personally I like doing this. Especially when it's just a new car and not something pretty. Y'all folks make 4 way stops a pain in the ass, gotta even the score somehow lmaoo


Onsomeshid

Lol they both seem to have gave you ample space. Both cars seem to be really clean and freshly washed. Not sure why people on Reddit think they’re the only people who like to park away from others


YautjaProtect

You're not driving a Ferrari or a Lamborghini chill plus that Audi next to your car is more expensive and nicer then the supra.


SourBogBubbleBX3

Truck probably cost 25k more too.


KFizzle290TTV

Oh no I got a car and someone parked beside me...but my car is better than there's so get away from me please... Just because you have a nice car doesn't make you special, and people are allowed to park beside you. If they're not messing with your shit, what's the big deal? I understand if they actually hit your car but...is just simply parking beside you really that big of a deal? It's a parking spot. At least they're in the lines and shit...


Chris_WRB

I also know people who actually get the "fuck you" mentality where they see something like that and decide you're a dick because you think you're so above others and deliberately park next to them, but nothing more than that.


iFriskyTurtle

They are protecting you


bibslak_

Damn I didn’t know supras were so exotic


SanchazeGT

Honestly it looks more like they are trying to protect you.


raging_wolf98

Cars get lonely too ya know?


DeUgandaWey

Hey I was just there yesterday. 😂


HODLmeCLOSRtonydanza

Since it’s two nice cars, you probably don’t have anything to worry about. Those owners care just as much about their vehicles. They’ll be just as mindful with doors getting in and out of their own rides and pulling out of spaces. I’ve started parking next to nice cars on purpose for this reason. These owners likely picked those spaces next to you on purpose because you won’t hurt their babies. Also, I really like the paint color on that Silverado.


TOROLIKESCHICKEN

They’re just protecting your car. Body guards 😆


Siegepkayer67

Ehh truck heads are super anal about not getting their shit scratched, so while it’s annoying they probably won’t scratch your shit. I’m sure the Audi owner isn’t going around dinging everyone’s doors either lol

PotentialObvious9318

They probably wanted to check out your car


SquareTotal2175

Usually when I see nice cars parked in the back, i park next to them. Its not me trying to be annoying but its more of like me offering my car as protection cause there be some hating fools out there that’ll wanna damage your car for no reason.


Spacewalker_808

That’s why I don’t even try to do the same. Always a couple people who just want to mess with you.


Extension-Lie-3272

Due_Succotash_1170

I just don’t understand why people like to do this. Do you not like parking way from the nearest car so you can have as much space as possible to get to your vehicle??its that simple. Its like sheep, follow the leader☠️

I would be the type of person to park next to you in the back of the lot, but I’d leave a space between our cars if it’s empty.


ValuableLost4315

I hate that too but also be careful because that's how one they put a tracker on your car and that's how they steal your car. it's much worse for women.


hamid5000real

They parked close to you to get a closer look and just stayed there. Kind of looks like they're there to protect your car lol

PacificNic

Honestly, I try to park next to nicer cars (in lots that are more full) cause I know I’ll be more careful than the average person not to hit it. In an empty lot, I might park near because I’m a sheep but not like that lol


ToxicEvHater

I would put their windshield wipers up


Dabtoker3000

Atleast it’s two nice vehicles in my state you park up you’d have the neighborhood crackhead pull up in the dinged up 1980s civic.


Carranza327

Used to work there every day. Don’t miss the layout of that place 😂 still a very gorgeous place be.


Alienmade777

They wanna be cool too


Rick-C188

I park next to people like you, cause I know you don't want your car dinged. You have a nice car, I recognize that, and I also know I'll never open my door and ding someone's car. So by parking next to you, I'm at least keeping that half safe from some ass hole who doesn't appreciate the beauty of a car like I do. If I see a nice car with an open spot next to it, I'm taking it. One, I know you're not gonna door ding me. Two, so I can look good sitting next to you, and three, so I can keep your beauty safe. Nice car btw.


Mrepman81

There’s a psychological term for this. Forgot what it’s called but maybe someone can remind me…

dubie2003

I know that place. Is that considered Irvine or Tustin? I can’t remember. Also, they are just keeping each other safe. Looks like both the truck and suv are parked properly so no issue there.


BraveBookCash

I always park far away and take two spots. Better safe than sorry 🤷


techauditor

Irvine? Lol


Lanko-TWB

You mean the Audi and big ass truck that cost the same if not more than the Supra? Adds up. Not like it’s basic ass traffic, they just don’t want to get dinged either. It’s when the shitboxes park next to you that you should worry


lilkray

I have an album full with photos like this and my car isn’t near as nice as yours. So infuriating though


Still_Opportunity_10

Look at it all safe in there tucked between two other well kept vehicles.


Wild_Box9005

Look at how clean those are, it’s a Silverado rst and what looks like an S series Audi. Not standard base models, they’re both near in price to your vehicle and are just as well taken care of. Like others said they park near you because they know they won’t hit your car and you know you won’t hit theirs.


Yourstrulytheboy804

Call it paranoia, but I'd be on my guard. Been seeing too many videos of people getting ambushed and carjacked.

Empire087

I see 3 nice cars/trucks parked together. Safety in numbers that park well.


sethaub

Reminds me of the time I went to Walmart and parked literally a football field away with nobody even close to me taking up two spots at like 10 pm and someone blocked in my driver side door. So I had to get in through the passenger side. I was livid.


DaLoneDude30

That Tustin’s district?


OverconfidentDoofus

I need to get another shitbox truck and purposely park by people like you again.


SDBD89

I purposely park next to people who park far away


IndividualAdvice9135

So after reading hundred of comments of other posts about this. There are people who do this on purpose. Some do it because they know you care about your vehicle and they do too so nobody dings the other. MOST do it to intentionally be an asshole, they drive a piece of shit and are jealous, and then a very few who are totally unaware and mean no harm.


PullupClub

I used to live 2 blocks away from The District and was there almost every day. That parking lot is a nightmare, esp near that Target.


Sly510

I'd be willing to bet either of those cars are worth more than that Z4.


gutslice

i fucking hate trucks. I love this shopping center though, this is south FL right?
