In boating they have a term called "2 foot fever" whereby your current boat is always too small and you need to trade up to a bigger one. Alas, the "guy's garage/pole barn" falls under the same rule. My first guy garage was 24'X24'. When I moved I built a 24'X32' for my toys. Now I find that I should have made it 24'X36'! 
Where will it end?
Also if you make it too fancy there is always the risk that wifey will move your azz out there next time you pizz her off!

I built a 3 car, 3 door, garage into the house as part of the initial construction. 24 ft deep by 42 ft long. Cars don't bump doors when getting in and out. And there is plenty of walk around space when you need it.

Count your blessings, we just sold our house and moved into a rental temporarily. It has a one car garage so small you need to go outside to change your mind, but at least the vette is covered.

jerkyboy, that is the finest tire rack that I have EVER seen! I love the high ceiling, too. What is its height? Do you have a removal and/or storage system for the hard-top? Did you have an underfloor radiant heat system installed? How about floor drains? More pictures (and details), please.
Sorry, but I think I'm having a Pavlovian experience.
