tough company, looks like you need to trade up to a Carrera GT. =)

 

I think a stock Turbo is one of the more stealth super cars around. Just as there are pro's that go along with this, there are con's. If you need more car-as-jewelry valet power, I guess you'll need to move up to an F-car, Lambo, RR or Bentley. Either that or tell the valet you will let a 0-100-0 road test determine who should really have a spot up front!

 

when you get into situations like that, it's all about money with the valet guys. particularly at upscale establishments such as where you went. mucho dinero = up front. and if you're guest of the owner of the establishment, you're made first priority. so you never really know. but for sure, MONEY is the only language with valets. your porsche is definitely eligible to be parked in front, the valet dude was basically communicating to you that he wants you to break him off just as the F50, Murci, and bentley peeps did.

 

Miami=Drug City!!!!

JK....miami is a great place! Although, last time I was there...I only saw 1 996TT (black) and just a handful of ferraris.

The nightlife was great...although, for some reason we always ended up at Solid Gold! What a great place!

 

next time give him a twenty-you'll get a spot..

 

I offered him a $50 just to avoid being embarrassed in front of my girlfriend but it was not happening!

 

its all about the benjamins....in Boston the best restaurants/clubs require $40 and above for upfront and there are'nt as many nice cars as Miami....

 

$50 for a parking spot - only in florida - that's just stupid!
I can only imagine what the lambo guy flipped him!

 

I bet if you were driving a TT Cab they would've made room!

 

The 996tt is not a show stopper IMHO. It is all about its performance, and is as understated as any sub 4.0 second car can be IMHO. If you want curb appeal go buy a F car, Bentley, or Lambo. Heck, a modded PT cruiser might get more curb appeal then a stock 996tt. I personally like stealth cars as I would much rather save money from the local authorities then worry about tipping to valets. No worries, your car is the better performer, that is what matters.

 

I bet half those cars were rentals....plenty of hundred dollar millionaires in that town

 

maybe 100$


same **** happens out here on the strip.

 

probably not much, they'd love to have a car like that upfront. It's all about image

 

Thats ridiculous and downright arrogant, I would have parked, toke my key and went inside, you would have spent more than his nights pay inside.

 

Thats too funny! I was at Mizner the other night and that little front space is always full. I saw a light blue Murcie and a new Bently Contenintal GT drive by.
If you want a front spot "Get there early" Is all I can say. And I always walk away with my keys. Pay him an extra 10 for that.
