Ahh, I know I'm going to have a heart attack if I scrape up these wheels. I got a tire/wheel warranty, but it does not cover if I'm a bonehead and tear them up parking. I'm trying to get used to how the passenger side mirror angles down when the car is in reverse. As annoying as it is when I am backing up in a normal situation, I think it might really be a good thing for paralell parking.

My friend's dad used to baby his 928 and always parked it on an end spot at work. One day somebody side swiped it. so I guess you can never be too careful.

I thought it was probably best to not keep the clutch depressed like you say, but thanks for clarifying it. It's been years since I owned a car with a manual transmission, but I do seem to recall my dad telling me that when I had one.

I guess it's good that I've only stalled it once so far. Years ago I had a 944. When I had a migraine one day I got my friend to drive it. She killed it five times before she finally got it rolling.
