Wow.

Love the 'garage' where the old silver ferrari is parked in what looks like a lounge room. Inspirational.

Have to agree, hardly a tool in sight.
I wonder if you parked a stocker VN in those garages and took out the exotics anyone would still think they're such beautiful garages.

I gotta say. I only saw three garages there all the rest were trophy cases like Wally said. The only ones I would class as a garage have the hoists in them, i'd be buggered if I would use a jack and stands on those cars or floors for that matter.

Moe: Garage? Hey fella's the Garaaage. Well ooh la-di-da Mr. Frenchman.
Homer: Well what do you call it?
Moe: A car hold
