Welcome Robert!

Your garage looks like a showroom (what kind of tiles did you use?)

I bow to your choice of German racing silver hardware :bow:

Thank guys! I used commercial grade vinyl tile for the flooring. Looks great and cost effective.

That's not a GT3 by the way - it's a '03 4S with a full Techart Type II body kit and suspension. :D

Very nice. I like the tiles being diagonal instead of straight across. Gives it a different look. :thumbup:

The flooring is made by Armstrong, I bought it at a local wholesale place called ProSource. I want to say that it cost about $2500. Here's another two pics of the garage.

Can you use a jack on that floor? does it leave imprints? I guess you could put down some ply wood or somthing to protect it.

Jacks are no problem at all. The floor is incredibly resiliant.

Where'd you get those blown-up Porsche ads?
Redlinerobert

I found all the ads on Ebay. I had them all framed which cost like 5x what I paid for the ads - they look GREAT though.

They do indeed. I went through all of my mags and removed the "cool" ads. Gonna put them on black matte paper or whatever, and fill up a wall. And maybe, when I get a bigger garage (read: when my girlfriend and I buy a house), I'll put 'em out there.

The Porsche ads are my favorites. I saw some on eBay, the entire set of them for pretty cheap. I wanted to bid, but I was smart enough to wait. I think I have them all, just not big ones like yours. Nice Porsche, nice garage and nice ads.

Incredible! That garage is almost too nice to work in! I love it.
A couple of those Wayne Dalton I-Drive door openers would make it absolutely perfect.

so cool! great ideas. robert...did you build down that "beam" infront of the garage door lift?

i assume the door just goes up to that point, correct?

Great looking garage but just how do those grarage doors work???????
Redlinerobert

Thanks for the compliments guys. Yes that is a 37" plasma in the garage :D

The garage doors work just fine. That's the way it was set up when I bought the house. The doors open past the beam, and yes they do open completely with out any problems.

Wow ... this is the first checkered floor I have seen rotated 45 degrees - nice!

I just ordered Racedeck 12" x 12" tiles in Alloy, Red, Black and White. I should have the tiles in about 7 - 10 days.

Again, nice look!

Love your garage and the cars. Nice set up. Those tiles do look great at 45.

Your garage is gorgeous!!!

I'm still trying to figure out how those garage doors go up though... I guess the perspective of the picture makes it look impossible.

That is a beautiful Porsche! :thumbup: :bow:

Excellent looking Garage! Nice Panasonic as well. I just got a 42" commercial model about a month ago (unfortunately it's not in my garage :bounce: )
