    There is a whole magazine in Japan called Garage Life or some such thing devoted to crazy garages ect.. Japanese love to customize their living area around what they are interested in...

    @alexander_the_car_salamander: Oh no, I have lived in Japan...you think American and European car collectors show attention to detail...now way. Well off Japanese don't usually have Japanese cars, I have seen some of the nicest Ferraris and other classics from all over the world, and they are kept in a shrine like garage with all the memoribilia and and of course....super clean..

    Epic. The bright wood and glass is just my style. Add Ferrari, Ducati, Herman Miller chair and ottoman, the Helmet, the car models on glass shelves... damn... I am weak in the knees.

    That is not a Herman Miller chair.

    That is the single greatest piece of furniture ever created. It is the Eames Chair. Herman Miller sells it.

    It is the most comfortable thing ever created.

    @VeeArrrSix: Besides of the chair discussion (interesting as it is), that is also not a Ducati but a classic Suzuki GSX 1100 S Katana.

    I'm almost glad it's a Jap bike, owning exclusively expensive Italian machinery can seem a bit strained and poseresque.

    I'm forwarding this to my wife... When I started dating her we had a conversation about dream houses. Now, here it is... just as I'd envisioned. Only with a far less functional 'garage'. Where's the friggin' tools?

    @Racin_G73 - dirt track legend (some day ... maybe):

    The tools are in your shop you built out back. You know, the one with the two lifts, the Bridgeport machine, the custom air delivery system, the heater floors, the air filtration system, and the McIntosh surround sound system with the 65" plasma? That shop.

    Did you get the 6-burner BBQ working yet? I've got some steaks marinating right now.

    @Uncle Bo: That's more like it... I told her that my ideal would start out with an acre lot. And that the 'garage' would need to have an apartment over top of it for my crew chief. That, and room for about 12 cars. (Realistically, I wouldn't have 12 cars parked in it, but with a motorcycle or two and with the racecar area taking up two complete spots, it would be wise to allow for plenty of room.)

    The rest of it sounds a bit higher even than my aspirations! I'll settle for some kind of permanent heater, lots of shelves and storage and a ~40" flat screen.

    @livinlvis: Check your building code and get back to me. One hour fire separation between different uses required.

    A garage doesn't have to be rated, but a shared wall/floor/ceiling between a garage and a living space does require a fire rating. Most circumstances manage it fine with a little drywall and most folks would never notice.
