Hell I'll work on your car for you if I can sit by the pool with a cold one afterward....

 

Says the guy with 3 lifts?

911 radiator? No real 911 has a radiator.

 

I think I got my priorities wrong when I bought my house... My next place is going to be a 450 sq/ft studio with a 12 car garage with 4 lifts.

 

Yeah, that thought crossed my mind as well, but you have to have all the cash in hand, because the banks wouldn't even dream of giving you a construction loan for such a ****-a-mamy idea.

As it is, I subscribe to Mark's philosophy - it's cheaper to let someone else do it - and a whole lot easier.

 

If I were single, that'd be it for me.

 

My house in Magnolia was like that, 950 sq ft house, 1200 sqft garage in the back! I really miss that place!

 

I new a single guy in Chicago when I lived there that had a rehabbed firehouse in the city... two stall fire house... 3 cars in each bay, fire pole, upstairs was loft like...

he did pretty well with the ladies

he had a way of closing off the floor in the loft around the fire pole... so it pulled double duty
Floor closed -- stripper pole
Floor open -- quick way to the cars

very cool place and the ultimate in city bachelor pad

 

Way to ruin my dreams Larry, geez. Next thing you're going to tell me is that there's no such thing as the Easter Bunny either.

I've actually kept my eyes peeled for this exact same solution. Problem is I've only found a few up here, they've all been far out in the boonies, and they're waaaaaay more expensive than I can afford.

 

while i like your enthusiasm for the 993's my turbo S couldn't get near my gt3's in any situation...........

the new 911's are just plain badass. everytime i drive my gt3 i smile

don't get me wrong i love the 993's Porsche had to change to keep up

 

fricken love that idea. what a awesome place to live in the city

 

I was blown away... there is only one firehouse in seattle that I know of that would work and it is on Capitol Hill... right next to a QFC couple blocks east of Broadway and has a video store in the main floor (what a waste)...

I also dig the one near greenlake that is by gregg's... it is not old and cool... but very few in Seattle are...

Chicago is ripe with neighborhood OLD firehouses...

I have been to my fair share of ridiculous houses and to date this firehouse conversion in Chicago takes the cake.

I wish I had pictures...

for in city living there is no better way for the car guy.

He was under 30 and had to fight them off with a stick.

I have never seen one come up for sale in metro Seattle or Portland.

But I believe Troy -- they likely would be very pricey and snatched up by a developer to build townhouses/condos.

 

Yea, I know, most newer cars are much faster then then the old 911's. They just look so much cooler!

Ok, so the GT3 RS looks cool to, but not in the same way.

What about getting a older GT2, or a GT1? They came in white!

 

Hey Jag,
Did you order one? I saw someone join the GB with a username of Jagman but could not see the car info....

 

I've only seen 2 993 gt2's in white. Both "all" racecar. Most of the existing GT2's have been transformed or are sitting in Europe somewhere with 300k price tags

I still think the 997's look good

 

Looks like the buy has been extended:
