Parking next to a CLS

This is a somewhat silly anecdote, but it highlights how useful a sight like this could be.

Yesterday I was going to my gym in Springfield, NJ and was looking for a spot to park. At 7:00PM the lot is full so I'm always looking for the far off spot to ensure that my doors or panels are not dinged by the inconsiderate SUV driver. Anyway, I rolled past a beautiful, black CL-S, noticed an empty spot right next to it, and backed all the way up (about 5 or 6 cars) to park right next it. After personally knowing a CL-S owner and reading all the posts on this forum, I knew my 9-3 would be safe next to a CL-s.

By the way, is anal retentiveness a prerequisite for owning a CL-S? I know it is for owning a SAAB.

You could stick a lump of coal up my butt and in two weeks you'd have yourself a diamond!
