Very nice!
But, the zoning board & design committee in my neighborhood would NEVER approve that design. Can't have more than a 2 car garage front loading. Side loading is fine for +2 cars or tandem is OK.

You'll probably want to put in a few huge plasma screens with cable, some leather couches and a cocktail table as you may not want to leave that garage. All your friends can come over and hang in the garage instead of the house. Or, you could tear down the house and make the whole thing into an additional garage putting a king size bed in there too. Waking up staring at the cars would be cool.
Congrats on your finished work,

Andreas,
Yes, the clock that you made is in FL. I will be setting up a corner table, chairs and an old crystal chandelier above. There will be a Ferrari and Porsche wall with posters, pictures, and a shelf for the trophies that the 993 has won.
CWay27,
The original two car garage will be set up for welding, metal art and making stained glass lamps/windows.
SKM,
The front (show room) garage is about 45 feet wide (two 18 foot garage doors and space between) so there is elbow room between the cars and walls.
The lift garage (yes, there is the Mohawk A-7 two post lift. The same one that put the hurt on the 993 five years ago) is about 36 feet wide and 18 feet deep.
The existing two car garage is about 21 feet wide and maybe 20 feet deep.
I most certainly will be spending a lot of time in this Man Cave...

My wife's fear if/when we move to a low(ish) cost housing area where you can have a decent sized lot.
I was ahead of the curve and didn't take advantage, but I always envisioned buying a building in Emeryville (down by where Pixar is, or EASY for a Porsche reference) and having about 5K on the floor for garage/shop with 1500ish sq ft on a mezzanine to live in.
