Any idea on how to not scratch the bottom of my car?

So basically, my house is down a small hill and has a high curb to prevent my garage from flooding.
The downside to that is that unless the car going over the curb is an SUV, it's going to scratch. Not all the way though, just in the middle/left side, the right side is a bit lower.
I used to have a Mazda 3 and it passed just barely, used to scratch when I had 2+ people in the car. Now that its lease ended, I'm planning on getting a Mustang, but knowing that car I can already bet that no matter how far right I try to go over the curb, it's going to scratch.
Does anyone have any idea on how to avoid it?
 
Maybe you could change the grading? It would cost you money ofc.

OR

You could put a ramp on the other side of the street, jump the ramp and land in the driveway.
 
Park your shit on the other side of the street or get one of those homie cars with hydraulics like xelly said
 
My only thought would to get a gentle ramp to kind of even off of the driveway so it wouldn't scratch possibly?

couldn't you just make a temporary ramp that can be put away after you're done with it?

But that would be annoying as fuck you're about to go somewhere for a few hours put up the ramp they'll get mad because it's there for to long. Now you go out dont put up ramp come back as you're about to enter you park go get the ramp take the car through and put the ramp back. I'd say that would be too much work

If you live in a nice enough neighborhood park it on the street infront of your house or is that not allowed?

It's allowed but frowned upon, and if you leave it too often you get a note from the neighbors

Technically I could, but hell, I'm not going to leave my car on the curb, go get the ramp, set the ramp, drive the car, take the ramp back in every single time I'm taking the car out D:
 
You could write a bunch of complaint letters or get other people to sign a petition or something. You must not be the only one with this problem, right? And I'm pretty sure that the city is not allowed to just leave a defective driveway there without doing anything.

It's kinda wrong to park in front of someones house for a long time but u are also forgetting that toxik came from the French hood So if the neighbours say anything he will just flash his gun and problem solved then we will hop in his swagged out faggio and yell Thuglife as he drives off

Lol but sadly it's not the city, it's just the neighborhood committee
And well yeah I'm surprised people bitch since I know both of my nearby neighbors also scratch their cars almost every single time
