Winter Garage

Here's where I keep my 3G for the winter...a least this winter. It's the dock where I work, I even put a camera on it so I can keep an eye on it.

i love how some of you guys say your garage is "cramped" when you can actually open your doors to your car without issue. i've got maybe 2-3 inches on each mirror when i pull my car into our garage. i can barely squeeze myself out the door to get out (i can get the door open to the first stop on the fronts...not even close on the rears. barely 8 inches in front and maybe 18 inches at most in the back. i wish i had more space...but i'll take what i can get. i'll try and get a better shot later this week.

Here is my current garage. Its a standard two car and I painted the walls and epoxy coated the floor. Z06 has been sold.





And here is a picture of my house that my wife and I are purchasing and will be closing at the end of Feb. My house is actually nearing completion, but this is a picture of another identical home that the builder completed elsewhere in the subdivision. My requirement was that it has a 3 car ;-)

Nice!

If it's anything like here, "Standard two car" means you can comfortably fit about 1-3/4 cars in there and no room left over. You NEED a 3-car, just for 2 cars and a cramped work space.

Cheap rat bastard builders.

^^damn. imagine if you got rid of some of the stuff and cleaned it up (the garage, not the car). you would actually have some space to walk around.

i know what you mean about cramped though, but we don't have any stuff in our garage except the car and some shelves for the car care products.

I'm jealous of everyone that has a nice garage. All I have is a carport... But it's better than nothing I suppose. And I know my cover is not the greatest...Walmart cheap so I can buy other stuff.

Well I just assumed its a standard 2 car, but actually its pretty roomy. My wife and I both fit our cars in there with plenty of room to spare. I dont have a lot of stuff in the garage because I like to keep it neat so maybe thats why it seems reasonably sized to me. About month to go and I wil have my 3 car...cant wait :-)

Sweet pic, I too had a similar situation, except I had both for a longer period. Some on here may remember my situation, but here were my cars. An 08 Type S 6mt and a 07 Type S 6mt :-D my little fleet of 6spd manual Type S's......

What happened was I bought a very nice 08 Type S 6mt from an out of state dealership. I flew out and drove it home. The car was everything I wanted it to be interior and exterior were flawless and the car drove great. I bought the car towards the end of winter so outside temps were still cool. As spring and summer came on the car developed some weird surging that would only occur during normal acceleration. It wasnt horrible and other than that the car was great. It just bothered me like none other and dealerships could not figure out even though they acknowledged feeling it. I tried swapping pretty much everything imagineable to no success. My wife finally said sell it if its bothering me too much and said if I can sell it for what I paid for it or more, go for it. So I did just that I sold it for a little more than I paid which covered the cost of the vehicle and taxes and fees. The new owner loved the car, it was something that bothered me being so picky and all.
I then found another NBP Type S 6mt that was down in TX from the original owner. He promised me there were no acceleration issues whatsoever so we made a deal. I bought another plane ticket and then drove that one home :-) Im very happy with the 07 no surging or anything like that.
I then had the 08 sold within one week of listing it for sale online. It sold to the very first person that saw/drove it. It all worked out great! Most people I know never even knew I got a different car ;-)
