Both cars fit in the 16' door on the left. The boat is sleeping in my trucks spot on the right. That stall is 42 feet deep so I could park the LX and my truck in there.

Thanks, I spent most of 2011 building it. No GC, I did everything from framing to electrical. Hired out heat and air, plumbing, bricks and sheetrock but got my hands dirty with the rest of it.

What model Porsche is that? I don't think I've ever seen that year/model or it's my iphone aspect messing with my eyes.

@Murf'n'surf It is a 1994 968 Cabriolet. About 2500 of them made it to the US between 92 and 95. They were built as coupes in Stuttgart then sent to Karmann Ghia who cut the tops off and installed the soft top. Before we had kids we used to autocross a couple of weekends a month.

Nice looking couple of rides Bruce. I really like that Porche. I know it's front engined, is it a v6 or v8?, turbo? What's the other car? Lexas?

@PEARCE, she is front engined with a 3 liter boxer design 4 cylinder making 236 HP and 225 ft pounds of torque. She has a 6 speed transmission and 0 to 60 is around 6.1 seconds. Not a drag racer, but with an almost 50/50 weight balance (transmission is on the rear axle) the cornering is amazing. You can find a little more info at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porsche_968 .
The black car is @Rana's VW CC R-Line daily driver.
Here are a few action shots, I believe she is driving in the bottom one.
