I'll defer to the fact that there may be a fair number of people who would think differently, but reverse sensors are all I would really need parallel parking or backing into a spot.
With Park Assist on the way in (Avante 2011?), I dread the day some guy scrapes my car, and then tries to excuse himself by telling me his wife's car which he is driving doesn't have Park Assist like his regular car.
Maybe I'm getting old and grumpy.

I'm not driving FL, the reverse sensor maxes out (beeeeeeeeep) with 40cm to go (for comparison, the Wira is 10cm) ! So what happens frequently now is that I actually have to get out of the car to look. (Ok, ok, my driving skills sucks

) The service guy even gave me a tip: "when your reverse sensor max out, drive 'a bit a bit more'"

. Most of the parking outside in Penang is parallel so you need to take all the space that you can....
The Forte butt is actually quite high. Even when the car behind is 2m away from the rear, they look like 30cm away. I had no problem estimating with my no-reverse sensor Iswara, but the Forte butt is just too tall.
