Wow, me neither.

I hate parking garages; fortunately the only time I have to use them is when visiting someone in the hospital. Luckily that isn't very often. Take the Vette? -- no chance.

Nice car, love that LMB. Sounds like the above opinion is if you live in a loft or downtown high rise you should leave it on the street instead of a parking garage LOL!

Thank you! Lol! Since the parking spots at the Publix's grocery store under ground parking garage are bigger than the ones outside, and since it's kinda of a pain in the butt to get in not a lot of people use it, as evidence by the picture. I'd rather park it inside than on the street. Lol.

I agree! Love seeing my car in the parking garage every time I leave work.

..and a gorgeous 488 and ACR I have seen in the same garage.

The only parking garage the car has been in is the paddock at Iowa Speedway. The other garage is at the house.

I don't get it.

How is a parking garage worse than a parking lot?

My only problem with parking garages are that many have an entrance ramp where my vette's nose drags as I enter.

I park in an open lot, I try to get this corner spot which is actually 1 and 1/2 spaces.

Parking garages are near cities -- which I stay away from like the plague -- and who knows what kind of thugs or kids are hanging around waiting to trash somebody's nice car?

I use to say that until we got our own section in the parking garage. Out of the sun and no threat of getting door dings. Car stays cool. PERFECT. For the last 18 years my cars have always been out of the So Cal sun.
