Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

1. Because the long front pointy shape that its hard to judge when it will hit. 2. Better clearance on the tail bumper height.

POST 2Original post

Not usually. I only do at the monthly PCA meeting because everyone else does!

POST 3Original post

I learned that the Japanese always back into their parking spots which speaks not just on their lack of space in their very urban areas, but goes further to symbolize some of their conservative cultural values. Since I've come to know about this, I started backing into parking spots more so than ever before. I have bad clearance in either direction so I usually end up looking like a lousy parking guy.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have also learned that you need less front clearance space when driving away from your spot because your front turning wheels can angle the car earlier.

POST 5Original post

Only when I want to disguise my car as a Boxster!

POST 6Original post

Nope--not quite up for backing in. Of course, I'm usually parking way out somewhere where no one else is around anyway.

POST 7Original post

Straight in head first. Precise and consistent with side clearances on first try. I do pull through to the front spot when possible (often done at groceries and the like since I park away from it all). You are right about the front hitting/scrapping and am very cautious/conservative about this

POST 9Original post

I park mine the same way the guy in the Audi commercial does.

Benjamin, How does backing into a space take less room than not?

POST 11Original post

Quotes source post: 5303447

My DD is a pickup truck and if I'm in a place with narrow aisles between the rows of parked cars, backing into the spot is the only option because of how long the truck is. It's also safer too because you can see all around you as you are backing into a spot. When you leave, you have great visibility in front and down the aisle so you won't squash a kid. If you have to back out of a parking spot when you leave, then your visibility is poor and a collision with a person, shopping cart, speeding idiot is more likely. Cheers,

meaning when you pull out of the spot per chsu but for me it's more of a ... i feel better about just putting into 1st and driving out v. having to back out when i leave my spot from home. if the spot's too tight, then i don't back it in.

POST 13Original post

valet man. just kidding (well usually). I only back in if it's really tight or if I need extra clearance to get something cumbersome out of the trunk.

POST 15Original post

One of the reasons why Porsche rounded the front bumpers is that you can pull into tight parking spaces or garages... with that said I dont park in tight spaces and always back it in. Sometimes, Porsche know squat about their customers.

Nah, thats Bens job

POST 17Original post

damn being called out like this... challenge. i like a challenge.

POST 18Original post

Only when I'm driving a police car. But seriously, backing in you need to be careful no to go too deep and hit your oil pan or tail pipes if you are lowered.

At Koi in LA, the other pic was in my cabana room at the Roosevelt. I need to organize my pics from my laptop. I want to have more 911 related stuff which I have none of with my chicas. Summertime. It's just too damn cold here.

It takes less maneuvering space to back in. Just like when you parrallel park... you can fit in much shorter spots if you back in first.

POST 25Original post

Some of us(Phil) have hibernation spots instead of parking spots.

You will park it three times... once at the start, once at the mid-point and once at the end. I'll be checking your technique. I just got back from doing a dry run of the drive - boy was that fun! (well, with the exception of my toddler throwing up in the car twice.

POST 28Original post

yes because the truck is in the front, easy to load stuff this way.

POST 29Original post

I always back in - even when I park in my garage. It makes for a quick escape!

POST 30Original post

In some places, like the seaside town near where I live, it is illegal to back into a spot. Of course they don't have a lot of signs up to warn the tourists. I got caught once years ago. It would be interesting to know how much money they rake in on this little scam.
