    Hey, it's not the VW's driver's fault. After all, that Ferrari's nose is so low, it is impossible to see!

    Besides, both cars' bumpers appear to be doing their job perfectly well, so what's the problem?

    I'd always wondered how the alarm sounded on a Ferrari. Question eliminated.

    Comparing to another thread here in the Ferrari section... VW = 458 and 430 = officer. Now who's fault is it? indecision

    It is clearly the 430's fault since is intentionally put itself in the moving path of the VW

    In Paris and Rome that is how they do parking. Perhaps the Ferrari was parked too close and that is why the VW driver was so mad...

    That's not the alarm...it's the standard VW "parking assist" sound!

    Very normal for Paris parking ..... Now it looks like it was in Nice  or Canne as the F has number plates from Monaco and the VW has 06 which is the côte d' azure .

    Re: Guy in VW bumps into F430... Four times

    I blame the Ferrari driver for parking too tight. I always make sure to leave enough gap space between the car ahead of me and my bumper so that the person in front pulling out doesn't have use my bumper as a guide.

    That said the last two bumps by the VW were pretty hard.

    I blame the Ferrari driver for parking too tight. I always make sure to leave enough gap space between the car ahead of me and my bumper so that the person in front pulling out doesn't have use my bumper as a guide.

    If the VW guy followed the same rule, he wouldn't have had to bump the Ferrari.

    When I park, I always try to leave enough room ahead of me, in case I don't have enough room behind me when I need to leave.
