What do you do when you run out of space in the garage AND the driveway, and the city frowns upon street parking?





Double-stack with extra cheese, please.

(BTW, pulling the Roadster in underneath is NOT a task for a claustrophobic guy.)

No joke. If you're not careful you'll take your head off. Nice work though, and I want your car collection!

No, but Becky and I agree, our dream home (after the kids are grown) will be a 12-car climate-controlled garage / workshop with a pool table, bar and entertainment center in the middle, and a 600-square foot loft bedroom overlooking it.

Don't tempt me, I'm low on gas money.Phoenix is an awesome place, but way too hot for me, I've visited there a couple of times to see my cousins.Even lived there for about 2 weeks, nearly melted my brains out.

Your vert is badass! <3

Greg, your 240 is so nice... I keep forgetting about it. Love the lift BTW. I see it coming in handy for oil changes and the like.

Hmm... mine is similar! I always ogle those houses that have the bedrooms/living area on top of a two/three car garage. I don't know what they're called. See them at the beach a lot.

Still very nice right now. The high this week is supposed to be 88, lows in the upper 50's. Perfect weather for working on the car.

Yep!

That's the one!

Except ours would be more "comfy" and have lots of cool memorabilia and prints on the walls.

^^ This. I never want to have a house that someone would feel uncomfortable in. I want my friends to feel like they can come in, grab a drink out of the fridge, and plop down on the sofa. I don't like homes that are 'sterile' and cold looking.
