time to walk.. 
I don't subject my vette to that kind of abuse... that should be a sign of how I take care of other valuable things in my life.. 
........ depending on weather... Drop her off at the door and make the cold walk myself...

I dont mind walking because if you make it a habit of parking in the middle of the bunch something WILL happen to the car sooner or later wether its a door ding scratch or someones bumper hitting your car while they pull in or out next to you. Chances are they wont even leave a note either.
I will NEVER take up more than one spot but I will always try and park far enough way where no one parks next to my car.

That's what I do. If that's not possible, I try to park next to a nice car.

yeah i never park amongst the crowd, never! Parking in a vette is meant to be as far out as possible and in the last spot so that IF someone parks next you they only can hit you on one side. But thats probably not even going to happen if you park far enough away. Even if im running into a 7-11 for 2 minutes to grab a pack of gum i still park far enough away that some idiots dont come and park next to me and scratch my door.
