show us your Garage.

I'm pretty sure that there is a post floating around on here about this. I did a search and came up with everything but that. Anyway will all the Baller BMW owners on here there should be some pretty nice ones. I did mine a few years back when we bought the house.

That's awesome! What brand are those tiles and how much is it approximately to cover a 2 car garage?

Thanks.

Those are Race Deck. I bought enough for both at the time and it was about $2K if I remember correctly.

Like the flooring. I might need to look into.

It's ironic but I get more compliments from random dudes walking by my house about the cleanliness of the garage vs what's in the garage lol. I don't like clutter.

This is my problem. I like spartan. No clutter. Everything's put away in the cabinets afterwards.

*best angles I could find of the garage. I never take pics of the garage because there's nothing in it except the vehicles lol. Nothing you can see rather.

Very Easy to do. The Wife laid down most of the single floor as it was hers. It just snaps together.

I had RaceDeck in a previous house and it looked great, but I wouldn't get it again. Currently have epoxy and prefer it. The RaceDeck was a pain to maintain (especially white tiles as you can imagine) and over time, they would shift/buckle.

Nice color choice on your Bimmer.
Can't tell if that's Alpine or Mineral White, assuming it's Alpine though.

I can't bring myself to spend a penny on making my garage nice even though I'm anal about the car being clean.

Alpine. The original order was actually Nardo so I'm still pretty salty about it. They did the one thing, the ONLY thing I ask the dealership not to.

Guess what that one thing was?

And I thought looking at AP brakes made my wallet hurt.....

A few other garage threads, from the 2'ers page:

If you search 'garage' there you'll probably find others, these are just the top ones.

Yeah the sales rep texted me and said my car arrived. Waited months for the f'ing thing to show up and it's wrong. They also forgot the ccb's. Ironically, BMW approved all of my individual choices back then. I had Nardo and Frozen Brilliant White made, ended up taking neither. BMW also approved Chalk but I didn't do it. FBW came out looking very not matte and I didn't care for it. Looked clean with the gold wheels however.

Oh that sucks. I can't believe they mounted the plate when you explicitly told them not to, on a custom order! I still feel weird seeing Nardo on BMWs. It just seems like an Audi color that shouldn't be on bimmers. Lol. It looks good though, don't get me wrong. I think I'd prefer it on an RS series vehicle though.

Honestly the color I really like from BMW is the one exclusive to the M2 (or M cars?), Hockenheim Silver Metallic. I really like that color in person and wish I could have gotten it on my M340i.

Oh man. So I had an order in for M2C and I had it done in Hockenheim. Didn't end up getting the car - had F80 stage 2 tuned at the time and seemed pointless.

In retrospect I'm glad I didn't get nardo. Since then, I've seen Kia's in nardo. My neighbor just got a Jeep Wrangler and it's also in nardo lol.

I'm done with Nardo now. I'm just salty cuz I had one customized and they butchered her!!! Butchered!!!

Garage List
2019 X6 ///M  [10.00]
I’m jealous. I have a garage, and I’m still al fresco. My one car garage is ridiculously small. Even if it was completely empty, it would be extremely tight. I don’t have a shed so my snow blower stays warm in the garage. Houses here that have 2 car garages are way bigger than I need for one person. But I’m always on the lookout for my unicorn to show up on Realtor or Zillow.

I have a three car garage. Plenty of room for X6M in here.
