[Z06] no garage

I am under contract to live here for another 2 years. I am not going to wait until 2013 to buy my dream car when I can afford it sooner. I am quite happy with my efficiency appartment, it serves my needs in a town I would never own property in. For a storage-building to run me $100, I now have an appartment for $405+$100 that = insulated garage and living place. Not bad, and it's 7-day access with good hours and a $100K security system.
I vote storage facility.

Paranoid? I used to live where a lawn-mower wouldn't last 20 minutes in a fenced lawn. A 'vette would last about as long as it took you to go inside. It can be rough in the south.

If you followed the link you would know that these lifts can be placed outside and are commonly placed in driveways and front lawns.

If you are absolutely set on buy a Z right now I would get a storage unit. Not owning a home is not an excuse to avoid a Z if you can avoid it. We live in an apartment right now, and albeit a nice apartment it's still an apartment. With the higher rent though we have a parking garage which is closed access as well as monitored and we also rent a two car private garage for the Z. If we didn't have a private garage, I wouldn't own a Z.. the Jeep has been hit 3 times in the parking garage here.. no way would I subject the Z to that.
Is it worth buying a Z early to have it hit/keyed/vandalized? Ask yourself that.
