That sucks! Did you talk to the manager of the theatre?

That's what happens when you have a sweet car. Nobody ever did that to my Honda Accord.

The local place i know that does valet here actually parks like 20 foot from where u stop to get out and they take the car. and then they walk back and hand you the keys and a tag. i think thats how all valet should be. a designated lot and they park it for you in front of you and hand you back your keys. when u get back u hand them the keys and they bring it back for you. i have done this numerous times on my dates with my gf to the movies or dinner.

man... theres this BJ's resturant near my home city... and they always try to park 3 parks into two parking spaces for valet cause theres rarely enough room to fit the maximum capacity of people... sometimes you see those valet drivers accidentally hitting another car while opening the doors... i never get valet.

That is why I lease all of my cars now, every 2 or 3 years you get a new one, so you don't have to be paranoid, they are always under warrenty. Back when I used to buy all my cars I was always sketched out when people borrowed them or drove them.

The valet cost the poster 4.5 mi., but cost you tens of thousands of wasted $$$, now who is paranoid?

valets love to mess w/ peoples cars. the more they think it'll bother you the more likely they are to do it. they're mostly punk kids.

The 2006 VW Jetta has a valet key. I believe the speed is limited to 40 MPH.

Man that sucks he probably took your car out for his lunch break.

4.5 miles is a lot esp when most valet parking lots are only like 30 feet away from the valet shed.

Thumbs down

I know that sucks, the manager was not there and they said that they did not take the car 4.5 miles! my friend told me about a valet key that they do for his Audi is like a little device that you plug in the obc port and you can select a 15, 20 or 40 mph valet limit he was going to get it but is like $200

and btw the movie theater is in front of the i75 and that 4.5 miles is enough to go from the exit to the other exit and come back :mad:

but like a said before at night is safer to park the car in the valet because the parking lot is really big and it does not have that much light and there is always kids and too much jealousy and like 2 years ago someone broke one of my windows of my old car with a BB gun and I have people telling me that they always key cars etc... so in this place is safer to park in valet
