Pulling in at an angle is really the only thing you can do. Unless it's a very steep incline, this method should work for stock height.

Congrats on the purchase! Remember to go easy on it during the break-in period, but afterwards, knock yourself out!

Congrats on your car!! Be safe with the car and don't drive dangerously on public roads to endanger other people. Learn how to drive the car and have fun with it!

17 and a new car? Parents helping you out?

I had a similar upbringing and I know if my new car would not get up the driveway my parents would have called in a contractor and fixed that driveway so I would not scrape.

Hope yours does the same.

I got mine when i was 18..
piece of advice: go easy on the throttle when taking a turn and don't over estimate your turning and braking ability. ive had way too many close encounters and i honestly think teens should own an s2000
