Yeah it can be sketch at times. I haven't had any problems yet, been there a dozen times.

I always bring my S2000 to Tanforan movie theater in the parking garage floors for past 5 years. Never had any dings/dents/key-ings. People respect a nice, clean, polished, well-engineered piece of Japanese automotive design on public roads and parking lots. =) People are careful, curious and excited around the 'S.'

Spotted this white CR at around noon today when I was with my family at Pho 54 in Alum Rock.

you must not get out very much cuz i've been to just about every mall on the West Coast (seems like it anyway. -1234589 for high maintenance gfs, present one excl of course, honey) lol anyways, i've seen the best and worst of what's out there. Tanforan isn't that bad (outdoor lots), but the covered structure, near the theaters, is pretty awful, esp the lower level.

similarly, i was at the Colma Target yesterday and had to move my gfs suv TWICE in less than 15 mins while i waited for her to shop. two careless people rolled up HELLA close in their land yachts, and we just got her car outa the body shop from fixing some hit & run damage. can't stand inconsiderate people.

all that said, there's a guy w/an orange McLaren mp4-12c that has no probs parking in the slots on Irving St in the Sunset. I see it all the time sandwiched in between the produce trucks & other beaters out there. lol

I actually go out a lot, especially drive pretty much everywhere on Fri, Sat, Sun. You just have to know where to park and what to look for in parking lots. I never park in 'compact' spots, and where the parking slot width are narrow. I tend to park next shopping cart stations and align my car to the cart station rails as close as possible so the opposite side will be away from doors that swing wide open. Most of my parking are parallel parking since I would rather get front and bumper scratches than side door/dent dings. I haven't had any problem with anyone hitting front or rear of my car the past years yet while on parallel parking. The worst parking is at Ranch 99 Market in Daly City since I've had 3 hit and run incidents and was able to witness it. Target in Colma is pretty bad too but I park faaaaaaaar away, more on the bed and furniture side and/or Sizzler where there's no cars around. At Tanforan Century Theater, I park upstairs where the entrance to the theather is(level 2 or 3 I forget). I tend to look for parking near the walls where I can just park one side of my car as far as possible to avoid doors swinging open but within the marked white lane. I tend to bring my Acura TL instead at the theaters mostly but still never had a ding yet.

Any Ranch 99. I park hella far away when at the R99 in Foster City. I don't trust the drivers there at all...

i was j/k about you not getting out that often. lol i'm sure you're careful. i've always been extremely careful &... err, "picky" about where i drive and park all my cars and don't like any of my cars getting messed up. i won't even park my beater or rentals in bad spots. makes me sad when i even see other people's rides dinged, dented, or scratched.
