AMG banner.

Depends what your looking for. If your going to be doing any mods, maintenance, etc. a lift and a few tools (other than a leaf blower )

Hello Ian,

I think your garage looks fantastic just the way it is. It also depends on what you are trying to achieve. Is this a working garage .. a showroom for cars ... or a place to hang out.

One improvement I might suggest is to hide the gardening equipment behind a door or drawer. It will give a cleaner appearance to your interior and also will not place your cars at risk from something falling on them should a piece of equipment fall from the open racking system (you'd be surprised just how many times this actually happens).

I think a great garage is one that expresses its owners personality or passions and features something that you remember after you leave. You don't need to overwhelm your space with a lot of "stuff" but if you place a few items strategically, like a neon or metal sign, gas pump, antique posters or framed artwork that reflects your personality and passions this will take your garage to an even higher level.

Regardless of what you do, I like it the way it is!

Best of luck!

Chad

Upgrade the cabinets.

Stow the gardening equipment.

New flooring.

Nice lighting.

@slord: AMG banner is a great idea! I'll look for one. Thank you.

@Chad: I'm definitely leaning toward the vintage prints idea. I'd rather have some vintage tributes than only clean and modern. I want my garage to feel like.... heritage, motorsport, friends rather than cold. I love your garages. What a cool company. Must have so much fun! respect!

@POWERHOUSE: Dude can't you see my garage is tooooo small for a stripper pole.

@IIVVX: haha I somehow missed that site. Thank you - the big sites like allposters.com etc have a severe lack of anything except classic monaco gran prix posters.

@h20skier: Pearl White Rossion Q1 With Gloss black wheels and mirrors arriving this year Z is going in storage or outside.

@DJ: WOW that's a nice garage. I DO really wish mine was a little bigger so I could have a couple chairs to sit and enjoy drinks, maybe a TV for that too. Maybe when I move to a bigger house.

@Sean73T: What'd you have in mind for upgrades of the cabinets and floor? Both of those were my "upgrade" from a blank canvas but they weren't crazy expensive - I wonder what I'm looking at price-wise for 'real' cabinets. 100% with you on the gardening equipment. What'd you have in mind for floor? I love shiny floors but worried it'd look bad in a small garage. Also, lighting.... thinking a bunch of small recessed lights?

Thanks so much everyone. Really cool ideas

Some new cabinets is all I can think of. Looks good the way it is.

BTW are you often in the Cool Springs area often? I think I've seen you around in the C63 a few times, may have even talked to you at Best Buy lol. Unless someone else has the exact same car.
