Our Dream Garage

Well, it took us a while to build and get this garage the way we wanted it but it was well worth the time and effort it took to complete it.

Paint - Behr Premium Disney Space Grey
Floor - Race Deck
Cabinets and Bench - Gladiator by Whirlpool
Chairs - Craftsman
Tire Racks - Tire Rack

There a few more finishing touches that need to be done but all in all it's done. It came out better than I had hoped and I have to say it's our Dream Garage, just wish it was a lot bigger to hold all of our cars.

Here a few pics

Yeah, these garage threads tempt me to spend money modding the garage instead of the car.

Very nice use of Race Deck! I was far less creative when I set up mine a few years back...just black/white with a red border. (Those are stick-on vinyl tiles on the wall...a little art design to match the floor.)
When we bought our current home, there was NO garage! With very limited space to build, I managed a double-wide, double-deep configuration. It means juggling cars, but that's not such an awful problem, if you know what I mean.

Those are fantastic setups! You're making me want to undertake the most expensive mod of all...moving out of a condo to a house with a proper garage!

We love it!!!!

My husband and I have to take turns driving it, I get it on the weekdays and he gets it on the weekends (when we are not doing MINI events)

It handles twisties like our MINI but accelerates like our Vette, awesome car
