That's actually pretty good for in the city, let alone NYC. If I could find that in DC, I'd be set.

Here in NYC they want $200 for out side parking lot parking. I scored with this garage, for those guys who live in the suburbs with lots of room this is prime garage space in the city.

Tidying up?!? Your garage looks pretty clean to me.


BTW: Your FD looks amazing! Is that the factory paint? Either way it looks stunning.

That he does, it's making me wish I had an MB. The combination of ride height, wheels and MB look great. And I wish I had a garage like his too, though I would take yours too Gordon.

Here's my garage when I moved into my house, and then after cleaning it up and doing a lot of work last summer. This summer I'd like to put down racedeck flooring or epoxy.

Those are just to help me jack it up. My jack barely fits under the car without them.
