What would you put in your 4-bay garage?

My answer: probably my same four cars now, because this house costs $679,000! So I’d be foreclosed on within 5 years and wouldn’t have much funds for new vehicles during the downward spiral into financial ruin anyway.

:D

Where the f**k do you find a house near Seattle for that much?!

I can tell you what’s in ours: the Audi, the Alfa, the Hyundai, a lawnmower, a snowblower, and an unprecedented amount of junk.

This is maybe 30-40 miles north of Seattle.

That’s a pretty good price actually.

I’ll keep this borderline realistic within the next 5-6 years.

Keep my Z4MC - do it up outlaw/bbi style (except with a bimmer), 993 GT2 clone, Mazda CX-5, Toyota Corolla iM manual

Well one is an RV spot so the obvious answer would be a single jetski and tons of junk.

Has to be a ranch house since my father and I hate stairs. Probably the same shitboxes I have 04 silverado, e38, joop, and the project yukon I have. Rest of the other cars will be on the lawn to piss off the neighbors.

Yeah but if you could afford a house with a 4 car garage you would garage your current 4 cars and have 4 more parked in the driveway. If I were to guess; a corolla wagon, a paseo, a t100 and a Lexus SC400

The bicycles get one spot. Then, the wife’s minivan, a little convertible like a Miata or a Fiata, and then a sweet luxury GT car. That would cover most of my moods.

If I made six figures, I still couldn’t afford this. At least not comfortably.

NSX-R, 996 GT2RS, manual 6, and whatever my trophy wife would want. Because if I could afford that house, I could afford all the rest.

I’m looking at places near D.C., and $679k gets you like 1500 sq ft with one garage, maybe.

Anyway.

Lexus 460, Ford F-250, Fiat 124, Alfa Guila Quadrifrisjshfuwlaodudio.

That thing is only $679,000?! In the Bay Area, it would easily be a few million, at first estimate, probably three to four on today’s market.

This is a $660,000 Bay Area home:

Probably why my parents really don’t want to leave here considering that trying to come back would be astronomically expensive.

Honda NSX

BMW M5 (E39)

And a Rangie where the van is, because rules are overrated.

I’d have a 3 car garage and use the difference to buy better looking exterior materials :)

When will the rock be glued on?

Yes you could. You might not be able to have four cars to fill the garage with, however.

RPM esq. > Dr. Zoidberg - RIP Oppo 02/16/2017 at 19:20

You might be able to fit two deep in the RV spot, or put a lift in there and stack ‘em.

What I am saying is that you don’t have enough cars.

Assuming I have the kind of income that allows me to afford that house, I think I’d get a single-cab 4WD manual RAM 2500, a Challenger V8 (but probably not a Hellcat because I don’t want to immediately wrap it around a tree), a Ford Flex for my partner (he likes them), and probably keep the 4th spot open for a succession of random project cars/toys.

Bay 4 - Mrs McMike’s daily driver (also available for my daily driver if I need to work on it.

1) Mazda5

2) E39 M5

3) Vanagon Westfalia

4) Bentley Flying Spur

My ex had a house on a corner lot that started out as a 3 bed, with a detached two car garage. A previous owner knocked down some walls and made it a more spacious 2 bed. Then they added a second two car garage, and then filled in the space between the house and the garages to make a large family room. I would have liked to keep that place, but it was in such a crime-ridden area I would probably hated living there. My PowerBook was stolen, and if I had more electronics there I assume that they would have been ripped off as well.

There isn’t a 660k home, unless it’s next door to the Richmond chevron refinery. I know homes in mountain view that are over $1600/sq ft in value.

Indeed. I just went on Zillow and tried my best, but to be honest it’s probably going to sell above 1 mil or more.

Did I mention that my “fixer upper” still cost me 7 figures before I even started tearing into it?

What a horrible choice in materials.. The way the siding creeps up into each gable end where it transitions to the cedar shingles is very odd.

Well since I live near a college, I would convert it to one or two student rental units and make $$$ every month.
