No garage, Car sits outside in the sun heat and cold. It is protected somewhat by a wind brake. Car is covered in Xpel and ceramic coated. Can't put up a cheap shed. I live on commercial property that get inspected. And I wouldn't trust those cheap sheds with the winds we get here, last night was a mild 50-60mph breeze.

ill be honest. i’ve never not had a garage and never not used it. even my junkass daily driver always has and always will go in a garage. it kills me seeing ppl park their vehicles outside while the garage is a storage unit. the stuff inside is nowhere near as valuable and leaving cars outside is what destroys them. sadly, most ppl dgaf about their vehicles and have other priorities. trade it off after a couple years and don’t care.

I call it a car glove.

Since it's on what would be like the basement level, in the summer the car is 70°, and in the winter it's about 50°, the heat doesn't make it all the way down there too well.
I've been clearing out some excess junk to make as much room as possible. I have a Quickjack stored under the car so have been able to do a couple tire rotations, several oil changes along with two diff and one trans fluid swap.

Right now I'm adding some lighting Roadkill style with zip ties to existing objects on the walls/ceiling, still have to get two more 4' LED tubes then it's probably done.

Nothing great, but it serves it's purpose.

Sounds almost exactly like my house. Early 50's split level, one car garage stall that used to be a room. Although mines a bit wider, have about 2 feet of clearance on the passenger side and enough on the drivers to comfortably open the door. HVAC vent in there so it usually stays above freezing, although the couple days of -20*f we had this past winter put that to the test.

Sometime in the 70's they added on another garage stall, that's currently pack with too much crap.. need to get it cleaned up and get a shop set up.

I live in Central Florida. The sun here is extreme. Of course, there’s no snow here. My car is always garaged.

3-car garage was mandatory when we bought our home. All 3 cars are always garaged except summertime. I move my 2007 Mustang GT out of the 3rd car and into the driveway. I use the 3rd car for lawn mower, mountain bikes and other summertime yard crap.

Yes, but underground community gated garage. I used to have a one car garage with a motorcycle as well. My motorcycle and my g/fs car fit side by side. But she had a Fiat 500. If she had a Camaro, probably wouldn't have.

With that said, I'd never own this car without a garage space for it.
