The Real Griot's Garage
Here is another great garage. This is Richard Griot, founder of Griot's Garage. Nice place, with a great collection of cars.

I was reading the article about him in Autoweek. He lives above the garage! Although I'm sure it's no mother in-in-law apartment I would have guessed he had a huge house with a monster detached garage. Awesome collection of cars.

I will give you that for sure. However, I do like that he vintage races his cars. He apparently is fairly quick too.

Wonder why they don't show the coolest car in his garage
2 Years ago he purchased my Ferrari Dino 308GT4 driver, not show car. We were about $1000 apart on price so I said throw in a $750 certificate to his catalog and we have a deal. I had to drive the car to his Indianapolis warehouse to deliver the car and then I could pick $750 in product from the shelves. The place is the size of a Walmart full of product.
I asked him why he wanted my average 308GT4 when the nicest in the country were about $30k at the time. He said his neighbor growing up was Adam West(Batman) and he had a new one in the 70's. It was the first Ferrari he saw in person and got to sit in. He also wanted one that he could just hop in and drive without worrying about it.

that garage pictured is in the Northwest if you delivered that dino to Indy than possibly he's got the car there.
