Had no choice but to valet park my 2005 Mazda RX-8 at a fancy hotel. I warned the Valet that if the engine got cold, he’d have to warm it up again before shutting it off lest it flood. Sure enough, got a call hours later (while sleeping) that they were trying to shuffle my car around for space, but it wouldn’t start.…

When they move my seat and it just never feels quite right again. In the next few days to come I find myself constantly fidgeting with the controls until I reach a point that becomes livable, but forever different. Truly a horror story.

Funny story, there was this one time when I drove up someone’s brand new rolls Royce wraith. I told the owner that I was a little nervous to drive it. He seemed confused, and asked why I was nervous. I told him it was such a nice car I was being extra careful. His response changed my outlook on how we should all look…

I was at first, it turned out not to matter in the end.

I was a valet once upon a time at a hotel while I was in college. One of my duties was also shuttle driver. This wouldn’t be so bad except the shuttle was a 15 y.o. full size ford van with seating for ~11 that hadn’t been maintained. Oh, it was a 2wd in a ski resort town where the average snow fall on the mountain was…

My dad was driving a E34 540 with a stick, and left it with the twentysomething valet. I was ahead and go to the door first, so when the valet started grinding the gears I could see both his panicked face and dad go from perfectly relaxed to “Someone will meet death” in a split second.

“More than you can afford, buddy” *disappears in a cloud of electrical smoke*

When I was 25 I once rolled up to a fancy restaurant in my 1997 aubergine-colored Dodge Stratus, and I left the keys with the valet. After a very nice meal at the restaurant, we headed outside and waited for the valet to return with my car. After about 5 minutes, imagine my horror when the valet returned with a 1997…

My worst valet experience is EVERY valet experience I’ve ever had. I go to some fancy event or dinner, and the place is valet only. I give the valet my keys and watch over my shoulder as he drives away in my car. After the event I get my car back, and it’s exactly the same as when I gave it to him. The car itself is…

Okay so this one time, I convinced my friend to let us take his dads 250 California out for the day in Chicago and...well...lets just say it was one interesting day off.

I had given my e34 to a valet once, and when I got it back, it had the worst odor inside that you could imagine! Our eccentric neighbor told us that both my friend and I stank of it. Then he said he started to smell of it too. The odor seemed to attach itself to anyone who went in my car! I thought that the restaurant…

I would have bet all the money that this was a Remi Gaillard stunt. And then I would have lost all the money, disappointingly.

Wow such car. Very Jalop.

no their not becoz u didnt tag #pulitzerAF

One of the last times I had had my car serviced, there was a delay in getting it brought around for me because ‘the guy who can drive stick was tied up’. The guy - as in the only one on shift who could drive a manual transmission. Made me sad.

You have to understand that people with money always finance cars when the interest rates are low. Anyone with excellent credit can get sub 2% auto loans right now so you take the cash you would spend on the car and invest it. Past years would have returned 5-12%/yr on that money in reasonable investments.

Damnit!

HAD a bike rack.

I'm dying laughing at my office right now, because Gordon Fucking Ramsey is getting a LaFerrari Spider and this guy isn't Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahha!

But was he also denied a new Ford GT? And is he whining about that too?
