The ultimate garage?

Wow, what do you think of this garage? It is wild, but I was expecting a huge collection of cars including an Aston inside. Love the facility, not the 4 wheel vehicles so much for $5 million.

Scott, did you intend to attach or link an image of the garage in question?

It sure seems like a lot of Aston owners on this board, are from the Great State of Texas!

LOL! What a boneheaded move on my part. I thought I had attached it. http://www.flixxy.com/5-million-doll...m#.UKEOWYb4Igo


You are right. For some reason, the Texas Aston owners do seem to be an active group!

I don't understand the point of having a garage like this for a collection of vehicles like that.

That man is REALLY dedicated to his daily drivers I guess. Cool facility and elevator though.

My point, too. However, he did mention the need to keep millions of dollars of cars safe. Maybe he didn't want to share what he had in order to protect secrecy. But it is an odd segment, then.

I don't think he is showing all of his cards. the point of this video clip is to showcase a garage, not the vehicles within a garage. The cars (with exception of the RV bus) are probably stand ins for filming, many collectors have extremely rare and valuable cars and they keep a very private collection. A guy like this that is so eccentric about his garage, he's got to have some very special cars, indeed to create that "millions of dollars" in cars statement he makes.

Based on his crap taste in motorbikes, I don't have much hope for what fills that garage. And I'm really confused about how he's using the ground level garage space: 3 car doors plus one large, RV sized door and there's just a jumble of boring farm equipment in there? Yes, it's a new place and he's not yet moved in, but still strange.

And the fake rocks and tree on top of the lift? Taste and style just can't be bought.
