Everyone in this forum talks about having the "ideal" collection of cars, but one question remains...

Where would you park them?

I live in the suburbs, and in total, among my 8 family members in the house we've used up our 8 parking spaces.

Being a car nut, I'd like to get another car, but there's just no space and I'm not sure I'd like a fancy car to be that far away.

Just curious, what solutions are you guys using when you have run out of parking space for your "collections"?

Thanks for your time!

if you can afford to keep a "car collection", then finding your own place or renting decent garage spaces won't be a problem.

How do you have 8 people with cars in one house? It sounds like you need to buy your own house.

Big house, three car garage, a couple two-post lifts, seems like space wouldn't be an issue.

Yup.

My plan is to have a 'warehouse' (so to speak) off of the main house that will hold three cars in stalls, and then two more via a lift.

Great idea!

Big house, 3 car garage, 2 driveways, but no lifts.

I hadn't even considered a lift before.

I'll take a look at some lifts and see if they're right for me.

Thanks everyone for your solutions!

I have room for three or four but not the budget so we are down to two. My neighbor has a family with collector cars and bikes so they rent/own a large storage stall that includes a lift so they can put four cars and a half dozen bikes there.

I rent a garage on the other side of town to store my s2000 in. It's cheaper than building one on my property.

I had 4, now am down to three and sticking w/ that #. Maybe I'm not as hardcore an enthusiast as I used to be, &/or maybe less materialistic, but I found maintaining, registering, insuring, etc. 4 vehicles to be more work and expense than reward. That could change when I'm retired and have more free time to play w/ cars.
