My neighbor came by and we took a cruise to cars and coffee together... wow. Just wow!



His GT2 with my GT4. I'm wondering if I should be looking to trade my 991 GTS for one of these.

Your taillights even have the same blacked-out theme! Love the voodoo.

I didn't notice the lift set-up. That's awesome. Is that a custom build or did you buy it? I have two 2-car garages and one of them has a high ceiling. Was thinking a lift would be useful, but this is beyond what I had been thinking about. It looks like a complete second story!

Thanks! It's a bendpak unit. You can find it cheaper at other vendors, but this is it. https://m.summitracing.com/search/product-line/bendpak-hd-9swx-super-wide-car-stacker-parking-lifts/maximum-lift-height-in/89-000-in



We park our big SUVs under with no problems.

Nice garage setup, do you have a 10 or 12' ceiling?

About 12 1/2 or so I can't remember exactly.

A 997 GT2 is not nearly as risky as a 996 GT2. At least it has TC (and I think 997.2 version has PSM also)
