Garage List
I have it and mainly just use it for the cameras as well. The cameras are a must have at this point. Pulling into tight garage spaces, not curbing your wheels, parking into tighter spaces.

The one parking feature I use on a daily basis is the reversing assistant when I'm getting out of my garage. It's incredible, no longer have to worry about if I'm going to accidentally rip one of my side mirrors off backing out.

As for the self parking features.... I use them to show off to friends/family and that's about it. In real world driving, they're just too impractical to use. Parallel parking requires you to drive slowly while searching for a parking spot and of course that'll annoy drivers behind you. And for perpendicular parking, it only backs in, and it does so slowly. Admittedly I have used this feature on a few occasions but I can just do it quicker on my own with the aid of the cameras.
