That is awesome. I've stored my car years ago at a warehouse and I didn't like it and this wouldn't be much different. I want it in my garage at my disposal not having to drive off site and switch vehicles. Now if I had several toy cars (which I will probably have very soon) then this would be great and I would do it. For now I just added on to my garage and made it a man cave for the Vette and IS-F.

Guy has something though and he'll do great with it.

Neat, but it would be even neater if they had some common facilities, like a clubhouse, where you could socialize with other car nuts.

Too cool! I think this would go over big time in this area of the country. Doesn't really sound more expensive than a golf or country club.

That is great and far beyond anything I could ever afford. (I know deep down that I would really make a great rich person!). Very cool!

This has been going on for years in the airplane world. I have two hangers at Chino and you ought to see some of the man caves there. One man owned Behr paint years ago and sold the company to Home Depot. Talk about your man caves! His place is my dream home. A P-38 and a couple P-51's downstairs. Giant condo above.

been there, nice man caves that people have built, but not for everyone, I want my car close by to be available when I want, not have to drive 30 miles.

the downside is once all the garage doors are closed, it's just another rental space place, rows of pavement in between rows of storage space

it is made to sound like a country club, far from it, at least not any country club I have been to. I would much rather have an extra garage at home , but I suppose if there isn't room at your home, this is an alternative, but buying land and putting my own space with windows, a deck, .... would be far better.

i think its pretty cool....but at the end of the day it looks like a place for those with high disposal income to show off their toys.

wait, did I hear around 4:22 that the guy is a manager at Target? And it looks like he's got a ferrari, a bentley, a bmw, and a pretty sizeable garage there? Am I missing something?? I didn't know managers at Target get paid that well.

Could have been a district or regional manager, my guess is those are some pretty well paid positions.
