Thanks! You have a great memory - that's me. Circa 2011:

Do you move yours, or does it stay bolted to the floor? I have a 20x20 and I park both cars in the garage, so, that probably wouldn’t make it.

I move it. The two car garage is my wife and daughter’s parking spot. But if I have a project they get booted to the driveway.

Not inside the garage but close enough

Do you just have like helicoils in the floor to bolt them to?

I think it’s a possibility it had something to do with the approach angle into the garage, because he had one of those straight driveways, that you come down, and the garage doors are perpendicular to the driveway, so, it’s a sharp right turn into the garage.

Yes. They come with the lift. They are special threaded concrete anchors that wedge into the floor.
I have a hammer drill and the bit you can borrow. PM me if you decide to get one and need to use it.

That would be great. Thank you. I’m definitely considering it. My question is, why are the prices all over the place?

I actually noticed it was broken back in July of last year, and I called the dealer and they told me to not expect them until December. I finally just called and set it up.

Appreciate it man,

997.2 GT3 seems be getting a lot of love lately. Seems like everyone is waking up to the fact that the newer ones might be faster, but they’re certainly not more fun!! Pure driving experience, Metzger, Manual, what more do you want!

Appreciate it! When we bought our home a couple years ago, we purchased something with renovations in mind. The wife picked out her dream kitchen, so I built my dream garage. In my free time over the course of about 3 months, I did the paint/floors/lighting/cabinets. We all wish it was bigger and taller (that’s what she said), so it is a tight fit with no room for a lift.

What kind of flooring did you go with? Race deck, Swiss Trax?

Looks great. Did you come up with that design or get help?
