My car is a 2015 Z06 with the Z07 track package. All of the of the Zs overheat on the track after two to three laps, including mine. The 2017 MY had a couple of minor modifications that made a minimal impact on the problem but certainly did not solve the problem. I am considering adding the new mid engine C8 Z to my garage when it comes out in about 3 years. This should really help with the rear wheel traction problems the C7 Zs have off the line.

That C8 Z should be pretty cool, maybe I'll just wait till then. Plus I need to pay some debt down first.

Nothing fancy; just a regular garage with a few decorations. The one with three black cars is my half of the home garage (Wifey's side is a mess).
The one with $100M of colorful cars is NOT mine, but what a garage!!!!!

Did you buy your old MX blue 997.2gt3 back. I bought it from you a few years ago and have sold it since. Did it make its way back to your garage? Good looking car.

Edit: I just saw your later post clarifying that it's your former Mx Gt3.

Definitely a Porsche Family. Wife’s 18’ Macan and my 18’ GT3. My poor daily, the ZR2, has to sleep outside.

What a fun and inspiring thread to read. Im still only half way through but here is mine. Humble in comparison to many LOL but I take much pride in and enjoyment from it. I am a first time Porsche owner (long time dream) after selling my 2015 BMW M3 I picked up a new 718 Cayman in Chalk. Really love that color.

^^^ Very clean and nicely organized, I like the detailing products shelf, and the two wall plaques. Is that an N2 bottle in the back corner?

The Cayman must be real new, it looks like you still have temp plates on it.

Cheers,

Thanks. The Cayman is 2 weeks old today. I have a custom PCA "C4YM4N" Plate on order. I have a touch of OCD ;-) I will spend hours organizing. Currently fitting drawers with foam inserts cutting dedicated spots for tools etc... The tank is part of pressure washing set up. Its a water de-ionizer for spot free rinse. Please excuse the wall damage LOL. I just reorganized it yesterday and need to get it patched and repainted.

Well the garage is by far my favorite room in the house ;-) Those are Saber Cabinets. A lot of what I have done has been inspired by another forum member Obsessed Garage. Cabinets are very reasonable priced and I love the Swisstrax Ribtrax floor tiles. The floors are always clean because dirt and dust just falls through. Maybe once every 2 months I run a shop vac over it to lift up whatever has fallen through so yes it feels more like a bedroom for cars which works for me since I don't do any serious auto mechanic stuff.

^^ Very nice, I love the old garage vibe you got going.

I put a Lucas sign in mine a few years back and all the lights started flickering and the electric garage doors got stuck halfway.
