Lightbulb Your Dream Garage

Hey guys,

After browsing "picture of your garage" thread, I was very inspired by the quality of the cars many of you own, and the amazing space that you built to house your cars.

Imagine, money is no object. What car line-up would you own? What space would house your cars? Do you have a photo of what your dream garage would look like?

This thread is meant to inspire, as well as show what is possible to achieve with hard work and the love for cars.

Best,
Anton

“Money no object” is so boring....put a dollar limit on it then people have to think harder.

Maybe not my dream garage because i like to keep my goals real. I would be very happy with my GT3 and a 458. Two great cars.

Mine's pretty simple. I need a couple of fun cars, a motorcycle, maybe some off-road vehicle, and a nice comfortable daily driver. That's it really.

Porsche 911 GT2 or GT3 RS <-- fun
Lamborghini Aventador Roadster or Ferrari 488 Sypder <-- fun
Bentley Continental GT or Vert <-- luxury/comfortable daily
Jeep Renegade (modded to hell) <-- fun for offroad/mountains
BMW M5 or Mercedes E63S <-- daily for when I'm too concerned about parking the Bentley on the street :P

Exactly, realistic goes a long ways - I would second this as thats the first thought I had to this question of the two cars that would be a great complement to each other but different enough.

agree. no limit on money = no limit on cars... at what point would one stop? just get everything... make that 2 of everything for redundancy... in every colour. Nominate a limit- number of cars or value.

When I mentioned no limit... I did not mean buy everything under the sun.

I meant, what would make you happy? Which car? What kind of garage? What kind of house?

To some, it's just one fun toy besides their daily. To some it is 10 very different cars.

I am very curios to see what the answers are... no limit means = whatever would truly make you happy.

Defender is the one SUV everyone should own

I was at Safari HP today and Steve showed me a 110 pickup he built for a guy in California..with a LS3

Gorgeous

Would love to own one

I will start with the "Dream Garage".... I would love to build a garage that is partitioned with glass or is part of a hang out area / work area.

Some photos for ideas:
