Nice garage at Lake Tahoe. Except for the Audi and the Mercedes, not my idea of good taste in cars in there.

Watching: Unbelievable underground garage in Kim's Picks @ TVKim

he certainly didn't seem to have anything extremely unique in there at the moment, but maybe a lot of the stuff was in the other garage.

the place is incredible though, the amount of money at some people's disposal defies belief for me.

I would have made it much more usable though, its a storage place and display. He needs the project assembly garage as well.

incredible though, thats for sure.

That place would be a whole lot better with a rusty old refrigerator full of beer and sodas and a wood-burning stove and beat up recliner over in the corner.

Very cool, but he doesn't really seem to have anything interesting in it?


Jay Leno still has the best garage.

the garage reminds me of a hospital waiting room. Nothing about it makes me want to stay in there, its too antiseptic for my tastes. What its missing is character.

Jay Leno's garage is a perfect example, a place to hang out and ogle cars, vs here, where I feel like I just descended into the clean room of the umbrella corporation, and sooner or later, a T-virus infected zombie is gonna pop out.

Just a couple of observations . . . he buys vehicles with no intention of even starting them just because they are special editions? The comment about the bikes being attractive to the ladies . . . explains why a guy that looks like him needs so many.

Exactly, and a remote. I wouldn't want to get up from the recliner when I'm watching tv.

Showing some age there . . . mentioning a remote is like saying "color tv"

I'm not the young man I used to be.

Funny, when I was a kid we still had a console black and white TV, and I remember when the tubes would go out, and we'd take them to the Thrifty drugstore and put them in the testing machine.

Pretty cool setup. Would love to have parties down there!


I bet he has some hotter cars parked up in the main garages.

it's automatic.

It looked to me like the upper garages were for the bikes, though who knows.

It mostly seems like a misguided shame to me, all the "collector" bikes he bought just to park, including five copies of a drag bike. What's the point in that? They won't really hold their value as racing bikes, since that stuff turns over fairly quickly.

Still, while it seems crazily over-the-top, I'm happy he spent the money before the greedy bums in Washington took too much of it. I'd rather he be extravagant with his own money than let the politicos have it.

and useless motorcycles that he doesn't ride. All of them are "special editions" which are eventually going to be worth crap because they aren't that all special
