    White people problems: when you can't hop into your luxury car immediately after your expensive brunch because the people who park & fetch your car for you had the audacity to leave the keys in another vehicle. She'll live.

    No it wouldn't have been the end of the world, but that was a kind thing to do regardless. Good deal Carroll!

    So many reasons why it's just better if nobody but you drives your car...

    I've never understood why having to get out and surrender your car to a stranger and put yourself at the mercy of their care and timing is considered a luxury. With self-parking Carrol would not have had to back-track and the Lexus owner would never have lost her keys.

    You guys have not had much luck with valets. Didn't one lose the keys for one of your cars?

    "I've never understood why having to get out and surrender your car to a stranger and put yourself at the mercy of their care and timing is considered a luxury." There speaks somebody who has never taken an aged mother-in-law to a casino. :)

    Ouch. 8 "thumbs down"? I guess Louis C.K. references don't have much pull around here.

    I still say that if you own a Lexus and brunch at the Biltmore that the universe has been very kind to you, even if the valet loses your car keys.

    It is also good when the company pays for your gas - I can't imagine an 80 minute detour in a car that can barely break 20mpg is easy on the wallet.

    Posts like this make me wonder what the point being made is - its a nice looking luxury car, so it gets a primo valet parking spot? I guess that's what people who read these blogs want to find out. More car impressions, and less generic reporting that would apply equally to any other luxury car, please.
