    Damn that seems like a lot. So lets say he had 40 cars... Each one would have to be worth like $800,000... Most exotic cars aren't even worth that much

    He is very green, apparently, to be recycling aircraft carrier elevators for his camoflaged vehicle lift to the two-floor subterranean garage.

    I've been a fan of architecture...especially residential architecture...my entire life. I was going to pursue it as a career, but chose home building instead.

    I lean toward strong gometric lines and classic style. Craftsman, Cottage, Post & Beam, Traditional...

    Not a fan of monolithic slab walls, ultra contemporary, or outrageous examples of creativity. (art for art's sake)

    What I wish for...is what I am curently building. A simple 3br-2ba with porches front & rear and a garage. One level. Slab. Heart Pine Floors throughout. Brick. Hip Roof.

    [​IMG]

    I'm also building a one bedroom guest cottage and a 26x36 shop on the property. I could not be happier.
    After 12 homes in the past 25 years...I may die in this one.

    waaaaaaaay over the top.

    I've had a few Corvettes (not at the same time)...and I'd now like a 911. Not to be Mr. Cool, and not a dozen of them. Just one, in black or silver, to enjoy.

    But at 100 large...and at my age, probably not gonna happen. Actually I'm saving for a new fishing skiff w/ a Yamaha outboard...cost = 10K

    I'm a simple man. :cheers:

    Get a Boxster. They can be had for around 20k with decently low miles, my father paid just over 22k for a 30k mile Boxster S. They will run with most of the sub 120k 911's without a problem and take turns a little better due to the mid engine vs the rear in 911's. Or get an older 911 for around the same price.
