Love your car!! You are REALLY asking to get keyed though. Parking diagonally like that even far away will attract attention from idiots just looking for an excuse to damage your car. I have seen it happen many times. My advice... park away from others but actually IN the spot

I agree.......parking crooked always gets some skateboarder or another driver to "teach ya a lesson"...I can't tell you how many reports of key scratching I've been on"...I always try to park with one side to a curb or end row and not be obvious about trying to get away from others.....the more you attract attention.....the more you will get it- I did buy one of the 50.00 cameras that records HD all the time I drive and not driving and stores the last 5-6 hours....at least I can have a clue of who walked or drove around it while its sitting.......

I have to park my Stingray on a college campus for the next few years so I'm definitely going to need to install a security camera or do something to protect it. Where should I install/aim the camera if i buy one?
