1) Always park in an end spot

2) End spots by the other car's passanger door is best, IMHO

3) Park far away and walk (good for the heart too)

4) Parallel parking at an end spot is very good too (give the other car lots of room to get in/out)

5) Never valet

Our cars sit very low and have NO side moldings. So, a door ding is going to show real bad. Heck, on my Explorer (I park with the same care as mentioned) the running boards can "catch" most of the trouble stuff. Not the Boxster.
