When I lived in Vegas, I preferred Valet over parking garages, But I would never take the "nice car" Where Valet parking is more convenient than garage parking, I 'll take the CRV, I can live without the "wow factor" for a few minutes to keep my piece of mind intact

Especially Would never Valet park a Vette. Much easier and faster to get in and out of the CRV as well in a line of Valet parkers.

There are way nicer (read more expensive) cars to valet than my C7. While that being the case, I only valet her if necessary. My wife's Jag cost more than my C7 and I don't hesitate having to valet her car. The ONLY reason why I am reluctant to valet the C7 is due to the fear of curbing the front of the car. Hell, I can barely judge the front end, so am fearful the valet can't either. Other than that...go for it.

I'm more comfortable having my C7 Valet parked than my Hyundai.They always treat the C7 well, park in next to the mega buck cars, in front, in sight while the Tucson get driven off to places unknown. I rather self-park the SUV as the Valets don't care anything about them, just another car to bang doors into while parking.

If everyone keeps voting the first three choices, those of us who voted "Yes and I don't even look" will be less than 1%
