I'm actually surprised the photos still work. I thought Photobucket messed them all up. We did move but shamefully I am dealing with a totally regular garage now. I've got 2 kids now, much less disposable income and the new house was kind of a last minute compromise so I've had little desire to...

Good idea. The one-car builds usually don't disappoint as well.

Oops, forgot to make some notes: I have had zero issues with the cabinets. For the money they beat the heck out of the compressed sawdust alternatives. I think I'd rather have solid colors (could paint them) but beyond that no regrets for the money.

Here's mine (cars are gone now, the photo is a little older):

Thanks! Hoping as well...might sell them on the house if the wife likes it otherwise :) Yes, I go through cars very rapidly! Thanks! Looking forward to starting fresh with some things I learned. GT3 is kind of dream car / track car. The Fiesta is my daily (and boy it is a fantastic daily...

Final update: we are listing the house and looking for something cheaper/smaller and a little shorter of a commute. This is the last and most current update before I begin a new garage journal. I'm looking forward to a fresh start to do things differently. Since the last update the only things...

I would definitely go deeper than 24'. Ours is 24' and there is usually no more than a couple feet between the front of the cars and the cabinets. Not a lot of room to work. I think 28' would be much better and ideally I would go 30' so as to fab and whatnot without fear of hitting the cars. I...

Man, singles are always the best to see unfold. Very cool!

Diggin' the wagons!

Another minor update...not the garage itself again though. Picked up another vehicle. The E46 M3 is going up for sale very soon. I can't keep pouring thousands into that thing. As a 150K mile daily AND track car, it has become too expensive to keep owning it. After driving a Fiesta ST on the...

Re: Accel Junky's 3-Car Attached Plus (Eventually) Detached Build I'm at 42 now...man I have an illness! I really want another blank canvas as well. I guess I treat the world like a video game and relish the change to "replay" and try things differently each time. Thanks! I hope to hang on...

I'm up to #41 now. Don't intend to slow down :) Wish I had some more garage updates but I'm kind of hesitant to spend more money on the garage. We have been thinking about moving and downsizing so I would just start fresh in that case.

More changes to what is in the garage. Sold wife's F80, she now has a manual 2013 Cayenne. I finally took delivery of my second GT4 (this time carbon buckets and ceramic brakes, otherwise same).

Definitely not true, the first one I ordered it was my first Porsche. No relationship at all. Out of state dealer. Got lucky on that one as it was when there were very few allocations and someone dropped theirs. 2nd one I was on a wait list (again having not owned one at the time) at a more...

Mine are the Bold series. Honestly, once they are put together and in place I have not noticed any issues with flimsiness. They are decent starter cabinets for the money. No complaints really. Better than the cheap particle board stuff out there.

I'm West Cobb, used to be over that way several years back. I'm over there every now and then I guess. It has to be the cabinets and cars. I guess the only way to avoid it is to have nothing on the flooring at all. Wish I had gone with my original plan of the stain/polished concrete. Next house...

Not much new to report as far as the garage itself. As for the cars, the Yas F80 M3 is long gone. The E46 M3 is track-prepped and completed the first track day within 3 seconds of the F80 at Atlanta Motorsports park despite being down 100whp. The GT4 is gone as well. I ordered another one this...

Yep, I'm the creator of that e-famous MKIV hardtop! Glad I could be of assistance with my flooring mistakes. Wish I had just done the polished concrete like I originally planned...since I've spent that much on these two attempts. I think my ceiling is 10-10.5" something like that. It would be...

Thanks! I have a minor update...not really to the garage itself, though. I've added a high mileage Imola/Imola E46 M3 to be my daily driver (I'm slowly undoing the mods from the previous owner...new wheels inbound, parts refresh etc...). My Yas F80 M3 is sold to a new owner just waiting for him...

Thanks! Emotionally, no...although I stay in touch with the new owner so I'm starting to get a little emotional now. I had it sold pretty quickly though. The prices were really flying up at the time. Kind of undersold it when I think about it but I was happy with what I got for it. For real :)...
