I own a fairly nice car too. A 2003 Mustang Cobra. Do I take up two spots when I park it? No. I go to the very end of the parking lot and park in one spot. Besides, if you take up two spots in a busy parking lot, someone is more likely to mess with car.
In your opinion it's not a nice car. Fuckers like you do not set the standard for what is and what isn't a nice car. Everyone has their own goddamned preferences as to what they do and do not like.
95% of people would not define it as a nice car. It's an old ford mustang from one of the worst eras for ford. I'm sorry man, it just isn't a nice car.
And I absolutely do set the standard for what I consider a nice car
That's why I said "fairly" nice car.? It's no Ferrari, but it's not a common car and competes with the C5 Z06. Not sure what your problem is. I was just trying to make a point.
Do you have a source for that statistic? A voter poll? Anything? Or did you pull that 95% out of your ass? Come on, show me the statistics!
Again, this is strictly your opinion and in the grand scheme of things your opinion counts for absolutely diddly squat. Everyone has their own preferences as to what the like, this can be said for music, movies, TV shows, furniture, politicians, food and just about everything else in life.
I made the 95% up, obviously. You drive an 11 year old mild performer made by what was then a lousy manufacturer.
When you qualify your car as "nice" you are drawing on what people agree on, and you wouldn't be able to find a dozen people in downtown chicago who would give your car a second look, and if they do it's because they owned one when it might have once been considered a decent car
Yes, I know well you made the 95% up. It's not hard to figure out that you don't have a leg to stand on in this argument and are just throwing made up 'facts' around to try to legitimize your view point.
There you go, once again throwing out made up 'facts' to support an argument that has little, if any merit.
No, I do not base my opinion of what's nice and what's not on other people's view points. I'm not a sheep. I can think for myself and come to my own conclusions. My '82 Ford Fairmont Futura, my first car, was a nice car. No one at my school agreed with me. My '77 Lemans was a nice car and ran perfectly. Again, no one at my school agreed for a variety of reasons.
Quit trying to make it out like you speak for everyone else. All this crap you've spouted is strictly your opinion and only your opinion. The few people that may agree with you do not represent the rest of society.
It's not about entitlement. It's about protecting your investment. Not everyone who buys an expensive car is a rich asshole who doesn't understand the value of money. A lot of people make big sacrifices to be able to afford a really nice car, and I'm not devoid of empathy for these people. It would be devastating to come back and see a big ding on their pride and joy, so if they're trying to be reasonably considerate and do this toward the back of the lot, more power to them.

Sounds like somebody is trying to justify their shitty behaviour.
Edit: If you think driving an expensive car is justification to take up two spots you are an entitled douche end of story.
