Yeah that happens to me too, I park far away so theres alot of empty spaces and when I get back to the car all are empty except the ones from my sides I dont know why they want to park besides me.

Yeah I always park in corners/far...still had someone push a shopping cart into my car though, AND once came back to my car with 3 people leaning against it chatting..

Anytime I'm out with my friends and we go in the Evo, they always complain how I park far/spend too much time finding spots in weird locations...they just don't understand what it's like having a new car.

I do that to hehe!......but sometimes rich people with nice car especially senior citizens are careless about opening their door and sometimes park all retarded...I guess they don't really care much about their car since they're rich. (could buy & replace anything)

A while ago someone pused the cart against my car I have some pics of how the Rear bumper is. Still havent fixed it.

I think if they are around your car they just want to look cool

If I have to take the Evo I have to say I'm guilty of finding spots way out in the middle of nowhere to park, and wind up walking a mile Doesn't bother me though, I don't mind the walk. If I drive it to work, I park all the way in the back corner double parked, lol.

And yes I inspect for door dings when I get back if I have to park near somebody, lol. And it pisses me off so bad when I park way out and away from people and come out, and some piece of crap car is right beside mine

I don't care where I park. I ALWAYS park in between 2 cars. I have 1 ding out of 5 years. And I know the person that dinged it. You can say I'm lucky but I believe if you are trying too hard to avoid the situation, the event works harder against you.
