Default Vette Parking

Been meaning to post this for a while. In early November, there was a day where the weather wasn't so bad, so I decided it was a good day to drive to work. Apparently I wasn't the only one who felt that way:

Thought it was pretty cool to walk out of the elevator and see this

This is in downtown Chicago. I see the Z06 every once in a while, but don't think I've seen the C5 before. Anyone from here?

If the lot got full, would they be towed for taking up two spots?

Very cool. I always like it when I walk out and see another Vette parked by mine, which of course is rare
