keep in mind you wont fit in most parking garages..also dont leave anything
of value visible thru the windows (stereo, luggage, etc)or  it WILL get broken
into..  ok and if you park on the street plan on investing in some new bumpers
when you get home..  New yorkers typically parallel park by "feel"  (ie, they
pull fwd/back till they hit the car in front or behind them, while squeezing
into a parking space)  thats why even the newest of cars have scuffed/gouged
up bumpers..
