The other thing: you're late for a client meeting and the parking lot is full (ding, dent and vandal potential is very high), it's hot and traffic was bad and you think you just ruined the front spoiler by hitting the ramp to the garage. Oh, don't forget that the car isn't THAT easy to get in and get out of. It fits like a glove and is low.

Is this the kind of situation you want to deal with on a regular basis? Makes me want to drive a Honda Civic.

Ah, that must be the reason for the bumper stickers "my other car is a Porsche"
