Is there a window in the garage? If so, a window unit from BLowe's or Home-Repo is a nice cheap solution. A 12K BTU should cool the garage down in a hurry and still be able to cope with the heat rejected from the cars.
A window unit will work just as well as a mini-split for the same BTU. A 12K BTU window unit is $200-250, a mini-split is more like $1200. Installation for the window unit is under 30 minutes, mini-split is several hours. If there's a window to slot a unit into, it's a no-brainer.
