With that architecture, he certainly doesn't live in New England or the frigid Northern Midwest, either!  

 

I've seen a local "garage" where the owner built a two-level, shingle-style, Victorian carriage shed to hold his cars - it's built into the side of a hill so you enter on the upper level from the house, but can drive out from the lower level with a car.

 

I would have to hit PowerBall to afford something like that.  I think I'm being extravagant by going to LED flood lights....

So this gal I was hot for in HS went way past me, and married this lawyer.  She is/was an only child of a local commercial real estate developer had money, likewise him.  Really, way out of my league.  Anyway, he was once a F1 driver with Mazda. After he quit being a lawyer, I suppose. He owns one of those F1 cars,  And a Boxster, and a 911, and I'm not sure what else.  They built a house in a very posh section of No. Virginia, which I visited recently.  The downstairs of the house features a very nice large recreation room, tall glass overlooking the woods and stream, a nice bar, fireplace, a nook for his HO trains, and -- say what? -- a F1 racer.  The four bay garage is also downstairs adjacent to the rec room, except there is no wall between the two.  The one is the other.  The racer sits sorta in each space, and the other cars that get driven more are in their slots where the doors are.  Hydraulic lifts, a full built-in wall of tool trays/cabinets, and such.

 

Like Gordon said:  first I win the PowerBall, then . . .

Gordon, my old barn was like that.  It was built into an incline, and if you drove in the top, you came out the bottom.   But that was just because the floor was so rotten...
