The bigger question is why do you care how others park their vehicle? I choose to park where I want and away not to inconvenience other guests. I have 30+ years traveling in everything from exotics to full size trucks. I know how to feel out a parking lot and where to not be a target or get dings when parking.
The valet kids had no problem with it and parked their long term guest vehicles in a similar fashion. The parking lot security stopped to talk often as I would detail my vehicle and aways gave me the thumbs up in passing. I typically tip the valet $100 + valet fees to park my vehicle myself so I can retain the keys.
Parking procedures were under control and normal at Disney deluxe resorts staying on property. It's like this every year.

Currently my family is at a 5 star Golf resort that has a in house auto detailing service for guest. Their valet staff is really cool and had me self park up front under cover after we talked cars and detailing tips. A day glow yellow Lamborghini Aventador evo is 2 cars down. Great staff.

Just to clarify it was 2 spots as the other side had a island in it holding up a light pole and when parking in those spots extends the rear of the vehicles into the lanes of traffic.

You do you - I parked at the airport to return to this on the side of my X7 - no note or anything from the other car. You're not being a jerk if you're parking out far and taking up spots that would be otherwise unused.

My wife's Passat has a lot of these since she parked at her company's garage. The parking space are so tight.

The literately lines up like morse code....
I would have to deduct $1000 for this when resell this car.

Guessing I'll have one of the early allocations at MSRP.

+1, this is why I go out of my way to treat my SA, CA, their managers, and the GM well (Christmas gifts, bringing a few dozen donuts in with my car for service, etc.). Never had an issue getting what I want when I want it.

Problem is Denver only has two BMW dealers... Even with the surrounding cities there are only 4 of them.

My CA is stating that they will charge at least 10k over the MSRP for the first batch of allocations

Was this at Schomp or Denver Downtown?
