Oh God, I Hope I Don`t Scratch It – Ferrari Driver Has Trouble Parking

Parallel parking maneuvers are tricky even for some seasoned drivers, especially when and if the gap is not big enough. Another factor is the lack of visibility, and while modern cars have varying degrees of it, most have parking sensors nowadays, and it is therefor much easier.
However, old supercars, like Ferraris are some of the hardest cars to park, in the world. While not as difficult to park as a Lamborghini Countach, as Jeremy Clarkson showed on a show many years ago (you need to open the door and stay halfway out of the car, in order to see properly)
.
Visibility is poor, the turning circle is lousy, and the ride height is way too low, and even the lowest of curbs become a major issue.

This Ferrari driver, at the wheel of what looks like a 348 or 355, from the early 1990s, is having a really hard time parking the car, despite the fact that the gap is clearly big enough, and there is plenty of room to maneuver.
The event took place in Los Angeles, at a Ferrari owners meeting (you will have noticed that all the other parked cars there are also Ferraris).
