It's pronouned GARE-rahj by the way.





I have about 4" of space between the rear bumper and the garage door and my front bumper is touching the dryer. That's retarded. And I know my hood is popped...



Here is the now deceased Impreza which is residing in my garage. Once I gets me a truck and an engine hoist and an engine, it's swappin' time. Awesome. My engine died with 132K miles because the block was starting to separate. There's a few gaps where I can stick in a flathead screwdriver.

Wow. At least you can pull the car into the garage. When we purchased our house way back when, the garage had been converted to a bedroom. I have a garage door that opens to reveal about 6 feet of depth before running into a wall. I couldn't pull a moped in there.

Seems to me like your car almost fits into your Laundry Room .

I don't think there are too full sized many cars that would fit int here and let you still do laundry.

Generally a 2 car garage is 540sqft. Can you park the Subie on the other side? You should see the new stackable washer and dryer now. Also they have washer and dryers that would fit under the sink ( if you don;t mind the washer and dryer in your kitchen)

Looks like it fits like a glove to me! Yeah, I've got the same problem. You should have heard all the dirty words come out of my mouth when the door hit the rear bumper! :angry

A luxury car that fits easily into a garage isn't a luxury car at all. I love it!

When I was living with the parentals I had to be really careful about parking my Q, because a tool closet made it a VERY tight fit. I also drove into the edge of the garage door opening a few times (causing some damage to the wood frame) because of the 90-degree parking angle.

I'm not complaining. Long and low is a bragging right.

I think I'll keep the Q out of the garage for now, there's just too much crap in the way. And I don't feel like moving the Impreza to the other side, it was a pain to get it to where it was right now.

My garage is 400 sq ft, which is fine for two normal sized cars.
