Will you be able to open the door of the Elise next to a sidewalk/median? I guess it depends on the size of the sidewalk/median.

Ah, I wasn't thinking of those parking-lot curbs on the sides. Smart, very smart!nxm150 said:I'm not referring to parallel parking, just normal parking. I like to park next to a median cause that means no one can park on one side of me.
