I don'e even give them the keys. I hold out $20 and ask where they would like me to park it.
I almost never get a no, and if I do, I leave. No valet will ever get in one of my nice cars. I have an HRE in for $800 in repairs that was largely done by a valet on the E55 even after I told my wife no valet. If she ever does it again, I'm pulling her key. And, she never drives the turbo (she doesn't have a kay.

I guess your really going to hate my last post "way way off topic", p.s. Prime New York is the most overated steak house I have ever eaten in, and I know you love my posts

A valet will never touch my Turbo, never.
I will let them valet my truck, but they would be hard pressed to damage it.

not that i go to too many places requiring valet. Santa Barbara isn't much for that. Funny Saks 5th is full time here. I just ask nicely if i can park my own car and if they ask why, i just say that i don't want them driving my car. if issues were to come up, the manager or owner is often a way to make sure things don't go wrong the next time. nice thing about a small town.
btw, the ferrari in the movie is for sale on ebay. saw it last night while looking for a new project

If I have been to a place often enough that I know the Valet (there are a few Morton's is one of them in Costa Mesa here in SoCal) I will trust them to valet the car. Other than that it is the FX35 even if I'm going to some swanky place, I don't care what they think.

Anyone ever have a Valet do a Ferris Beuller on your car? Or are you a dummy like me and have to pay some dude 20 dollars to leave it up front?

but mainly the peace of mind is worth it imo.
plus with so many turbos around, nowadays it's the only way to get it parked in front

Heck I will not only forbid valets from parking the car, but also I wont let the car be parked any where if I can help it...I will drive home and get the S4 if I have to park somewhere.
