Default Cool Valet Story

I went to a 5 star restaurant last night for Valentine's Day and valeted my S. I was (to put it mildly) nervous about letting someone drive my car, so I tipped the valet before I handed him the keys. He got in the car drove it about 25 feet and parked in front of the restaurant, next to a Mercedes. My car sat there until I finished dinner. When I went to pick-up my car I just got in and drove away. I didn't have to wait for my car like the other 10 people who valeted their cars. This is something I never expirienced with my '91 Accord.

VERY nice. I still haven't decided whether I'll valet my car, ever. I WAS a valet once, in college, and I promise you I test-drove all the nice cars if I had the opportunity. Yikes!

There were 908 miles on the car when I got out. If there were more than 909 there was going to be alot of explaining to do!!!

If you ever drive to NYC and get valet'd at a hotel, don't expect the same kind of treatment... I've done that twice with previous NSX's and they get parked like any other car...

POT HOLES!

We also have them west/east/north and south of Boston!

NYC, IMHO, would be a very nice place to drive an NSX through!
