Parking

[SimplyDope]

Reverse in for sure.

[slammin.e28]

Prefer pull through. Usually on the opposite side of the curb from the store.

When I go to Kroger I park in the fire lane 'cause I used to work there and own that motherfucker.

I worked as a valet at a dealer for a while. Got real real good at parking. Friends gawk at my mas skills in the asphalt grid that is the target parking lot. I just cannot fucking be stopped.

Reverse in. Coming from a 2000 Eclipse where I got my experience driving stick and reversing into spots when rear visibility is substantially 0, reversing in with an exposed patio that is the e30 is cake.. Parallel parking is similar too; gotta pull up and reverse in, something I get lulz from when I see middle-age women doing :rofl:

That, and I love seeing the front of my car from the cash register at work :up:

Nah I thought hardparked was like fuh race. A car all done up for stance and agressive look just to be parked to look at and not used.. or something like that.

Yeah, I left that part out. You've got to have a stanced fuh raze car, then gawk at your awesome parking job.

Then, after gawking for 5 minutes, you post on stanceworks about how hard you parked, preferably with pictures.

Reverse in, impresses girls with my magical ability to drive backward with prescision.

Reverse in. It's the easiest to steer straight.

What is hardparked?

When you park, then gawk at your awesome parking job.

:woowoo:

As for parking, lately I've been "whatever faces the front downhill" parking, as my parking brakes are überfübar, and I've yet to order the parts. The bike gets parked for easy exit, be it back in, pull through, or pull in. I don't have reverse, it's not a land yacht.

Parallel parking can be stressful with a line of cars waiting for you, but i've never seen drivers so idiotic that they go too close, stopping you from backing in, as long as you've signaled what you're doing and don't confuse them. I noticed that e30 owners tend to back in a lot more than other BMW groups, like e46's.

[TheBlik]

Back in, pull in, pull through, not to fond of the parallel cuz dudes never let you back up into the spot, and or they pull to close and your stuck :/

[devon.818]

i work at a car dealership, every car gets backed into a spot, even shit fucked 94 ls400's that dont have power steering and are missing both mirrors!

i didn't know how to parrallel park for a long time, again at a dealership you get good, now im the fucking champ.

as for e30's, they like to be backed in. you will see at any e30 meet, we line these bitches up and make their titites shake

[Massimo]

I paraelle park like boss bitches. Don't know why but I can Parallel in to just about anyspot no problems.

I don't like reverse in or parallel because no power steering.

That depends on how fast you are?

[bowtie2bimmer]

Gotta back in, the front ends look so much better than the rears

[Edev]

What is hardparked?

Not a clue.

I voted backing in.

I can do it much, much easier and quicker. It also turns out a lot more evenly and straight too. It's what we do at the dealership, so it has stuck with me.
