    Just got a late Christmas present. Anyone read this book? Absolutely incredible and now my wife is afraid...I have lots of ideas! Extensive pictures of Jay Leno's garage, David Sydorick, Walter Hill (incredible Jaguar collection). Peter Mullin's underground garage with the turntable is simply incredible, I think I saw it on a Speed Channel special a couple years ago.

    But I think my favorites are Bruce Massman's for its old-world elegance (and I'm a sucker for an archway approach) and Bruce Meyer's for the way it sits secluded in the trees behind a black-bottom pool.

    Fantastic book, well done Phil.

    Yeah, I got it for xmas last year. Great book. Ever see the Tv show based on it? (Could be that the book was based on the show)
    It was on Discovery or Travel. Every once in a while they re-run it.

    Is this available at B&N or Borders, or do you have to order it somewhere? I may go pick it up today.

    It's a very nice book. I saw the TV show last year but didn't realize it was based on the book (or the other way around). This was a present from my mom who just thought it was a cool book. Between my wife, mom daughter and mother-in-law, I'm surrounded by women who appreciate my obsession...if they don't exactly understand it. :D
