Hi all!!

First I want to thank everyone on this forum for the valuable information I collected that helped me with the purchase of my first P car 6 months ago.

07 CPOed C4S 13,000 miles
Atlas Grey
6 Speed

Here are some pics.









So far i replaced the HD with an Alpine, changed wheels and did the gundo hack last week with 2 1/4 pipe.

Nick

I don't know what's nicer, the car or the garage?

Very nice, congrats...

Absolutely Stunning! Paint looks so smooth and glassy. Makes me feel like washing mine.

What color in the interior, pics? And what's that thing underneath it?

That's not a garage, it's a covered outdoor living space!! Really dig the setup. Especially the full height stainless backsplash. If you don't mind me asking, is that rectangular thing on the wall a heater?

Congrats, sounds like you're off to a great start!

Thanks for the compliments. Glad you like the picks. The garge was the first thing I renovated when I purchased my house a couple of years ago. My favorite place in the house.

The interior has the full leather and is black. It also has the sport chrono package. I'll take some pics and post them.

Underneath the car is a lift.

A lovely car AND garage. And to think that gorgeous hunk of metal is five years old and has that few miles. Some people...

Your car is a beauty but I am slightly biased ;-)

In addition, I love your Garage...its a great inspiration for me. Which brings me to my next point. How well do those floortiles wear. My garage is epoxy coated but I am thinking of switching over....how easy is it to maintain?

Already said, but certainly worth repeated mention-you did a great renovation on that garage. I don't know how your home layout is, but the depth you have in that garage should be made code for all builders. I'm walking sideways to get around my car with the tires and cabinets in front of the P-car when the garage door is down behind it!

Thanks. The house is a very big ranch (95 x 50). The garage was twenty feet longer. Put a wall in front of where the car is and build a home gym. Been looking for a house with a big garage like this for a very long time. After a couple of years of looking my dreams came true.
