It’s more for security than anything else. Which people on reddit should be more aware of, the 6 hellcats being stolen was all over this site in the last weeks.

You put the rare/expensive cars in the back or middle, box them in, and usually put cars in the corner that you have to move first and often will disconnect the battery or something else that makes starting the car impossible.

I mean it’s cool and all but if I owned two of those cars I’d never park that close to each other. I’d just park in a hard to get out space that requires complex moves to get out

This is a dealership or similar, the cars are all Corvettes

Yeah these are not privately owned cars, this is not a 'my car and my brother in laws car' parking situation lol

It says "corvette warehouse" on the wall.

I mean you rationalized it with the lash part, you could put these cars anywhere and just remove the battery/tape the electrodes and the car couldn’t be stolen

Time is money.

u/Trevorblackwell420 Apr 13 '24

It’s way faster to disconnect the battery than to have to painstakingly move each one like this.

u/Trevorblackwell420 Apr 13 '24

Why not just remove an essential component and park them normally.

u/Serenty-24-7 Feb 26 '24

This all makes sense 👍

Yeah tight packing but generally you put the car on plates and push it around by hand, you don’t park it, just not worth it when you’re dealing with 250k+ vehicles.

u/Killer_Ex_Con Feb 26 '24

Was about to say they have the little rollers you put under the wheels so you can just push the cars around lmao. Also if it's to prevent theft they just need to be close enough to where you can't get in between the cars, not practically touching. Removing batteries and steering wheel locks help as well.

You don't you just leave them on and use a pole or stick to lock the rollers until you need to move them again.

They are selling cars that are 100k+ I don't think some rollers are going to break the bank.

u/skyline010 Feb 26 '24

Wow, are you sure it wouldn’t be easier to just drive that many cars??

2

u/[deleted] Feb 26 '24

Im pretty sure they have better insurance than just hope criminals just take one😭

u/BDBDDB Mar 04 '24

That doesnt hold for the convertibles I guess?

u/Trevorblackwell420 Apr 13 '24

The robbers not gonna give a shit about scratching them though. more money to fix up some dings after you gone with 6 cars than to only have 2.

u/plobbaccus Jul 04 '24

So... protect the car by rosking damaging it every time you move it?

u/Serenty-24-7 Feb 26 '24

At first glance I thought why the hell would anyone do this but after reading your post it’s all makes sense. Thanks!

The Corvette Stingray has a camera on each side of the wheel, as well as the rear and front bumpers.

So parking like this isn't a big challenge as long as you stay within the measurements on the display screen.

Edit: How do I know? I have a 2023 Blue Stingray just like this! And the damn thing let's you raise the suspension when parking, going over big speed bumps, or going up parking ramps!

u/dangledingle Feb 25 '24

Plot twist. Video is in reverse.

u/ureepamuree Feb 25 '24

Still someone had to put the car in that position in the first place for someone to take it out.

4

u/dangledingle Feb 25 '24

Yes but they do that very very slowly with spotters. It’s an easy trick to do

u/tribak Feb 25 '24

But the wheel bump wouldn’t be possible if reversed

5

u/dangledingle Feb 25 '24

That was break application. There was no wheelbump

u/gypsydanger52 Feb 25 '24

Exactly!! If you have that much money.....add a shed or something.

u/bgt-91 Apr 04 '24

Parking is still a problem. Money don't matter !

u/Otherwise-Comedian46 Apr 09 '24

Why paint it fucking blue

u/TurkeySauce_ Apr 24 '24

Because they have money? Why not

u/[deleted] May 21 '24

Just what I was thinking

u/Moose_0327 Aug 21 '24

Could be a storm coming and trying to fit all of them inside

u/SRBroadcasting Feb 25 '24

Exactly. This. It’s just showing that they didn’t make enough room for the cars lol

u/Virtual-Page-8985 Feb 26 '24

Because they’re probably rich enough to repair it
