I don't have PA but I think it's quite useful when you park in big cities like SF. I wish I had it.

The Rear Camera should be enough.

It's nice if you don't have a back-up camera
:stick poke: to myself on that one.
If you already have the backup camera, then the only real benefit is on the corners of the front bumper. But, that too helps me cause of the way my garage is.

Parking in SF is really terrible. I have the back up camera and that is usually enough for me.

The rear view is very helpful to me. I think that should be enough.

I think the sensors on bumpers are ugly, or way to busy.
Helpful but I can live with out the parking assist.

it is definitely worth it. it pretty much prevents any bumping into any thing in front of you when you park in garages and warns you really well. it's totally worth it.
