I would definitely do the four-post lift; more stable and versatile than the two-post, and with your ceiling height you'll also be able to park another vehicle under it (2 or 4).

Rather than just a clothes dryer, one of those efficiency units with a washer and dryer stacked would be ideal.

A small shower in the corner -- since you're already doing plumbing -- is a good idea, since you can clean up before trekking back into the house, and you can use it as an emergency eyewash (or bodywash) station if the need arises.

A good exhaust fan with a hose inlet for engine exhaust can be useful, too.

Piped air for the compressor is nice, so you don't have to have hoses running everywhere (and overhead reels for that can be costly); if you can swing it, build a small enclosure for it outside the physical shop dimensions and pipe it in, those things are noisy. Your ears and sanity will thank you.
