We saw our neighbor seemed to be adding a wall in the three car garage. Why we thought? A home office? Renting out a room? It all became clear yesterday when a flat bed truck arrived with a new Corvette on the back. He wanted a walled off space so the Corvette didn't get door dings from the other cars.
Nice car.
I'm so glad I don't have the slightest desire to own one.

Why don't people just drive their expensive cars home?
Anyways, I don't see why anyone would waste money on a corvette these days when you can get a Tesla S for just a bit more.

I know!
Don't you want to shake people sometimes? "It is a CAR! It doesn't need a ride home!"
It reminds me of one of those internet pictures with the caption "You're doing it wrong."

I am kind of glad that some people do keep cars in perfect shape. It's fun to go to a car show and see something that still looks exactly the same as back in the day.
Me, I love cars, but I drive 'em, even though it eventually destroys them. :-)

Besause the Tesla S is a damn 4-door sedan, that's why. A Roadster at around $50K, now, would be a different story.

We lived here for 15 years with no garage. Then for his 50th birthday DH bought a classic Mercedes. Soon after we had to build a house for it, they require it.
Your " folly" is my "spending according to my values." :) But the garage was great because it enabled me to insist that he move all of the ladders and other construction equipment out of our living room.

Oh he's a successful guy. I'm sure he can afford it.
So could I.
I'm happy that I don't feel the need.

Someone in my neighborhood bought a lot, tore down the house on it, then constructed this huge building to house their cars. It's bigger than any other actual home on the street. I think it may be bigger than some of the lots the houses are on...
Have no idea where this person actually lives.
