    Not what the post is about, but finding my MX5 on a parking lot is getting increasingly difficult, yes.

      dude I lose my Subaru Outback sometimes

      newer ones will park next to me and they dwarf it in size, everything is taller and wider and longer

      edit: not the topic, but there was one time I lost it in a small parking lot because a truck had parked next to me, and another Outback in the same colour, year, window tint, and general condition had parked on the other side of that truck — so mine was hidden by the truck. I went to the back and was trying to open it for like twenty seconds before I heard mine unlock ten feet away (the fob receiver sucks and it doesn’t work half the time, which didn’t help the situation). that is the only time in eight years that I have confused another car for mine. one of the actually great perks about driving an older car, nobody else has one just like it.

      I drive a Mini Moke. The only thing that sticks up is the clear windscreen with its little silver frame, and even that isn’t higher than the bonnet of most American Pickup Trucks. Its definitely hard to find

      My mom drove my BRZ to the store once since it was the last car in the driveway. She walked out into the parking lot after with my sister and was like “oh fuck, I just lost his new car”.

      It was behind a small sedan, like a Corolla or something haha
