To some that may beat the $10-$20 ($40 last week at club Sugar) valet price tag, but then again if you are driving a chick/date, searching for a parking spot isn't an option!

You should try parking in Manhattan. There are veryfew parking garages which allow you to park yourself. I have tp valet park every night wat a cost of $440 a month. If I could find street parking, my bumpers would be destroyed in about a month.

But for that much money, you could replace your bumpers several times a year!

So, what is the outcome.

In the event you MUST valet park, what is hte procedure? Can you give the attendant only the hard key (not the fob), can he start the car with it somehow? Is there a velet setting in the software or something?

Valet parking is sort of like inviting a complete stranger into your home and then leaving. And, he gets to keep the house key until you pick it up. I've never liked it, no matter how old or what the vehicle was.
