If you really miss it, you are welcome to drive mine anytime. Just let me know

To call mine zippy would be an understatement

Wish I had a lift, but here's another way of doing it. Any car can fit on the left side, and on my right, I can pull any car in head first to the far right, put the two back tires on trollies, and push the back end over. Then I can carefully pull any car straight in. Takes me 5 mins or so to get any car on the trollies out. (I've fit all combos of these including an audi a6.)

If you modify that shelf a little, you can just back the Audi in instead of using trollies, no?

Funny you mention that. After a while of getting tired of the trollies, I started backing in the car I park along the wall. I can back the elise or tt in and crawl out the passanger side. Takes 4 mins to park and then I can just pull the 2nd car in head first. Makes life much easier since i don't have to jack anything up.

Why not just hang the Elise on the wall ?

Where does the gargage door go. I looked at doing something like that, while gargage ceiling is high, I have to deal with the garage door and the ceiling joises.
