The only thing better than adding a 4-post lift to my garage will be adding a 4-post lift to my garage with a C7 Z06 on it!

That's the key. I decided I wanted my garage to be more than storage space and more of an extension to the house where I can enjoy my hobbies. I live in Florida, the land of no basements, and it amazes me how often I see neighbors park their beautiful, new exepensive cars in their driveways only because they have boxes of crap loaded up in their garages.

After I remodeled mine, one of my neighbors asked me to help him with his as he had no idea where to start. To begin with, he must have had over 15 large moving boxes full of old newspapers and magazines that prevented him from pulling his car into the garage.

My motto is either use it, sell it, give it away or throw it away. I am the polar opposite of a hoarder.

Those garages look great. Still working on mine and as yet it is no where near as nice as the ones here.
