Only once that I know of. I was so angry. It wasn't a small ding, which I can live with [grudgingly]. It was a scrape. Some ***** with a minivan or SUV opened their door or scraped their nose on the area just under the door handle on my driver's side and left about an orange-sized white scrape on my car that won't come off.

I've minimized the "whiteness" of it, but that's not saying much.

Other than that, I try to park wherever I can. Beggers can't be choosers in those parking lots, because if you don't take the first spot you can find (especially on weekends), good luck finding another.

I should do that. But when I close, we usually get out at 11:30 or so, and we're supposed to all park in Arizona West Parking.

I'd rather not walk to Ikea alone to get my car at 11:30 there.

i know for a fact there are plenty of cops that patrol the area. You should be safe. OR!!!! Just park there, and walk to work. Then.... make one of your co-workers or friends to drive you to your care haha

darker in real life or in pics? If it's pics than I'm sure it's just camera/exposure/processing differences.

I spotted a RR FG2 parked on a driveway in Shakopee on Saturday night... kind of near Rasky's house (saw it from the 101 detour... 4th St?). I wasn't in my civic.

I was working inside the Mall of America ...

2:30-6:30 and I had a meeting from 7:00-10:00. I had no way of getting over there.
