Owning an exotic car like a Ferrari, Lamborghini or Maserati gives you a certain sense of pride, which is why you might not ever want it out of your sight. Some people take this notion too far, like the man who designed his home around his cars. The saying goes more money than sense, which perhaps was true when the owner of a very flash Lamborghini had his exotic car appear in his living room at the push of a button.
Having a focal point in your living room is quite common, but it's usually a fancy fire place, posh coffee table or impressive 50" plasma TV, but for this owner none of this was enough. ImagineLifestyles.com has reported that the "through-floor garage lifts and displays the Lambo like a very expensive rug, much more enticing than any fine Oriental throw could ever manage".
It's no surprise really that owners of such super cars can't be parted from them, so perhaps they could replicate the "distinguishing features of the Autostadt", which houses Volkswagen's latest creations. The "transparent cylinder buildings rise 150 feet above the ground and are linked by a fully automated delivery system to the Volkswagen factory", according to Square-Mag.co.uk. This might be a slightly over-the-top idea, but the concept itself could work. If someone can store exotic automobiles in their front room then why not create a super-tower of exotic cars to look at all day long.
There's a more affordable modern way to store your exotic cars if you can't afford to transform your entire living space into an oversized garage, and that's by storing your vehicle in your motorhome. Unless you haven't seen the super-size RV's that have hit the scene this might sound a bit bizarre, but more importantly your missing out. According to Affluence.org, this impressive mobile home is "environmentally friendly, durable and aesthetically pleasing, and most importantly comes with a hydraulic operated car garage" ideal for storing that pride and joy you just can't leave behind.
