I'm 26 years old and the 350Z is the very first car I've had to make payments on. Cars 1-4 weren't over $2,000 each.
1. 1978 Mustang Cobra II w/ t-tops
2. 1978 Trans Am w/ 403 olds
3. 1984 Corvette
4. 2001 GMC Yukon XL
5. 2003 Nissan 350Z

3 car garage? Pshh, all #swaggmasters have 4 car garages.

I haven't seen any 4-car garages yet, but I have a tool shed for my mower. That count? I could put some 20's on there...

As long as you didn't build it yourself.

A true craftsman always builds it himself

That thing was an absolute joke.

I have a nice two car garage...



...full of useless crap from around the house.

There is an engine hoist and a motorcycle lift somewhere in there too, but good luck finding them.

The Vette was less than stellar to say the least when I bought it. It had sat behind a tobacco barn for several years. Paint was toast, numerous spots on the body ESPECIALLY the hood and bumper/nose were full of cracks, warps, and "clamshelling." OF COURSE being an 84(horrible year for vette electronics), the digital dash and headlights didn't work, the carpet looked like it had mange and was recovered from a murder scene BUT the seats, door panels and dash were near perfect after what seemed like a gallon of armor all. The original crossfire injection and engine was already yanked off of it and replaced with a 350 and quadrajet 4 barrel from a pick up, all 4 wheel bearings and all u joints were bad along with brakes, every bushing imaginable and a full on black plague of electrical gremlins!

I bought it because I was 20, it was a red Corvette and only $1200. It was a ridiculous money pit for the year I was restoring it. Sold it a year later for $2,000. That thing will without be something that I'm going to regret until the day I die!!!

I missed whatever happened, but if it brought a mod to THIS thread, it must have gotten pretty real.
