The PDK-S is a bit unique. I would be concerned about the thing taking off on a valet trying to back it into one of those small spaces!

A neighbor took his spanking new C2S cab to a fancy place and gave it to the valet. After dinner he found several thousand dollars of body of damage!

To me the answer is clear.

 

No way. For this car, even the P-technicians get excited on so let alone a valet.

 

Never, it's not the easiset car to drive for the first time operator. Also the front is too low. I asked to park out front, and tip the guy nicely which is worth it because the damage will cost you more. I keep the keys too!

 

This happens to me, like they have never seen one, even the Audi sales Mgr came out to hear and see it. No valet for me. No front row parking either.. Only the pre approved parking spots for me:-)

 

He** no!! What do you think I have the King Ranch for?

 

I do not give my Babies to a valet. I usually frequent the same restaurants so I always give a $20 and they let me park it up front. If first time to a new restaurant; I take my other car and sort of stake it out to see if I would bring my baby if I returned.

 

I have paid for valet with a healthy tip at a couple of hotels so I can get parking up front but park it myself. The kids understand my OCD regarding the car!

 

I'm reminded of Ferris Bueller and the Ferrari California Spyder -

 

I valet my 997RS with full clubsport cage and quick release wheel... blows their minds.. lol

 

Many times when parking it yourself, they'll ask for the keys "in case they have to move it". That to me is just as bad as them parking it. How do you guys handle that request?

 

Give them your cell number and say, "feel free to call or text, I'll have it out"

 

Just give them an extra $20 and tell them, "just make sure that doesn't have to happen"

 

Don't give up the keys, they always have excuse to move it....
I have a full cage on my 997 rs and do that to but i leave the wheel off and get a laugh seeing them put it on.

 

No way, valet. GFs have found it a bit OCD, but I won't valet anything.

I've been Buellered before with the 6GT3 trackcar. Totally busted the garage attendants after I parked it and gave them the keys. They thought I was gone. Got a weird feeling and walked past garage again and a guy had pulled it out and was revving it, about to fly out the steeply-inclined garage ramp and the other was shooting a pic. There was no need to move it, whatsoever. I made them give me the key. I don't trust valets with my Toyota. They spin around the corner and park your car in the funkiest of places in LA and SF.

 

There are dozens of threads asking this question. The answer is always the same. See above. Tip them to NOT touch your car.
