    Keep the car in the house

    A real estate agent sent me a some shots of a house he said was great far a car nut . Part of the Garage comes right into the front of the house and the other part of the garage has a hydraulic lift to lift the cars so you can work on them .

    So if you own a 360 and you get a new 430 keep the 360 and just put it in the house and write it off to an art investment .

    Re: Keep the car in the house

    the perfect solution. even for appartments: in berlin there's a project called http://www.carloft.de where some lift system brings you in your car next to your flat -- other german cities may follow.

    Re: Keep the car in the house

    That is so cool. I'd like to make the garage as much of a feature as it can be - hope to start a small collection of old porches someday soon!!

    Love the book I just bought (a bit sad though) - Ultimate Garages!!

    Re: Keep the car in the house

    To me you cannot beat a house on the beach. I could never live in an inland city, I like the sea too much. The house is very nice but would have a lot more appeal if it was located in Europe, maybe somewhere in Italy, Spain or France.

    Re: Keep the car in the house

    that is a platform that lowers it into the house from the garage , after you bring the car back up from the house into the garage you start it .

    This is great. Although I don't think they would throw in the car when you purchase the house.... Maybe a Kia....

    I heard a rumor from some of my Brazillian friends of a wealthy Fiat guy who has one of those hydraulic lifts that places his Enzo right into his living room. Fine living eh...
