My garage is big enough to accommodate my newly bought C43 convertible, but getting out of it requires more of a climb than just opening the door.
It would be convenient if I could just push it into or out of the garage, allowing me to use the door for entry and exit. When I'm in Neutral and I open the door, the problem starts. The handbrake is pressed and the gearbox goes into park.
It appears that the handbrake is automatically applied when I attempt to climb out of the car while in Neutral.
Is anyone aware of the feasibility and, if so, the process for accomplishing this?

I don't mean to be impolite, but why would you even consider purchasing a vehicle if you already know it won't fit in your garage?

Even though it fits in my garage, I'll be taking it somewhere else soon. Right now, though, it would be so much easier if I could just push it in without any trouble getting out.
It would be great if I could force it in, but if that isn't possible, then it's okay.

From what I can recall, you can try stepping out of the vehicle, shutting the door, pressing down on the brake pedal with a piece of wood or similar object, shifting into neutral, and finally pushing the car into the garage. Unlock the door. Repeat the process to remove it once more.

If the hardware for remote parking is already installed in your vehicle, you might want to look into it.
Having the subscription on my own car allowed me to park in more congested multi-story garages, with those concrete circular pillars. However, I no longer have it.
