oh yea, i was across the street from the valeters on monday. LOL!

 

Valet parking is stupid...if your date wont walk from the opposite side of the parking lot (door ding free zone) to the restaurant then she isnt worth it!

 

another reason why i never valet my car, i work for a hotel with valet service and i would never let those guys near my car after the stuff i hear and see.

 

its the owners fault, people think cars are just cars. Theyre not

Humans should be treated as humans
Dogs and Cats should be treated as humans
Cars should be treated as humans

Even if no outside damage happens, who knows if they grinded the gears, added some chipped teeth into your tranny fluid, and you wonder why your tranny blows up in a few months.

 

yeah, I love that feature. OTS valet mode has a rev limiter of 4k, but I like the 2.5k one listed above, theres no need to go over that unless getting into 5th gear in my car, which shouldn't be needed by any valet

 

Wow... I kinda want to be a valet... too bad my driving record is so ****ty...

 

Eh...whats a couple vehicular man slaughters...

 

I looked into it a few times and there were two major companies here in Monterey that were hiring. One wanted a 100% clean record, the other one allowed up to 3 infractions (as long as they weren't felonies obviously). I probably should have remembered the name of the company that allowed 3 so I never go to one of their places

the only time someone drives my car is either at the car wash (and I can hear it the whole time) or getting it serviced. Car wash I don't do valet mode, but for any kind of service (tires, brake work, blah blah blah) I put it in valet mode.

 

As a valet, Id never trust to valet my car unless I can park it myself and keep the keys

 

And if there IS no parking lot? E.g. most of the city?

 

take public transportation. ever since i moved to dublin, i never drive to san francisco anymore.

 

I've never had a problem finding parking. Sure, it's harder, but some say they never go to the city because it's so hard to drive there too...

One time, I was at a body shop with a friend who was checking out the progress on his Z06. They had a brand new 575M in there with something like 1200 miles on the clock that was missing the whole front end. Apparently an 18yo valet plowed it into a brick wall after driving it about 150 ft. Wonder if he still has a jorb...

I dunno, any time you let someone drive your car without you there you are taking a risk. The last time my R32 was at a VW dealer in the east bay, it came back with 246 extra miles on the clock. I bet those were fun miles.

 

well yeah if you live in the city YOU can Valet it, I wouldnt.
Or Find a restaurant that does have parking if that takes driving over a bridge 20 minutes
or using a crappy car.

lolllll
