Thank you. We have enjoyed it. As you might expect I have another two car garage for my "common" daily drivers. Built this really as teenager hang out but got an appropriate place for my Porsche in the process. Worked out well and was fun to design.

TEX,

I am in Spring, Tx would love to see your place. Have a few cars to choose from if a Porsche is required.

I wouldn't mind a bit more width, but it's plenty if the wife can just learn to park properly ... I plan to divide the garage into his and her sides. Daughter's car next year can stay on her side.
LOL!!!! This line had me rolling.

You guys are killing me here. I am trying to do up a plan for a 3-Car at my new summer home. I look at some of your places and I just say wow! I think I am going to try and negotiate with the wifey, she gets whatever she wants in the new Kitchen/Bathrooms and indeed the whole rest of the house, if I can just 'play' in the garage.

Sorry for the delay, I was waiting in electrician to have a few spare minutes to install the lights for the sign.
I fabricated this sign using eBay bought brushed stainless letters. I individually vinyl wrapped the letters in a distressed rusted red. I then wrapped the back board in distressed rusted white and mounted the letters an inch or so off the board.

It looks amazingly old, even up very close. The dimension given by mounting the letters off the back board is great, and accentuated by the new lights!! Name:  photo578.jpg

May I ask what lift make and model you are using?

Nice that it doesn't block both sides of the room.

Its a long drive from southwestern Ontario. Maybe I'll just have to do it!
