that guy has a fancy garage for changing tires.. wow, luck him.

tell ya what, look at the glossy workbenches -- that person doesnt work there, he plays video games and watches porno with his friends.

as for that 1500 dollar lift, i dont find it useful.. it blocks the entire bottom side of the car, what good is that.

even if it was just built, smart craftsmen dont install glossy work benches.

they install stainless steel workbenches.

if you guys want to nitpick, I would get rid of the Craftsman stuff and spend some money on real tools. Especially if you're going to be working on a porche and bmw. The lift is actually a nice lift, but a shitty orientation. I'd get an offset lift (asymetrical, short and long arms) so I could park the car, get out and then still get it on the lift. I don't know what the floor is made out of, but some oil resistant stuff would be nice too. Also, too many shelves and not enough tool boxes. Looks almost like a kitchen.

It's a pretty boys vision of what he "thinks" a garage is. Not a "real" garage. shame, shame, shame.
