Like you don't need one more 'keep the SC' comment. But I'll do it anyways, keep it. The $$ you will get for it won't nearly offset the fun factor of keeping it on. Car looks very clean, congrats. Oh, and concerning your garage issue, you may want to look into wheel dollies if some of the cars are not daily drivers. I use these on my S and it makes life much easier, as I can push the S length-wise along the back wall of the garage. Here's an example:

Alternatively, you can use a lift. But they are expensive ($2-$3k) and you need a ceiling height of at least 10'.

i hope you got them to perform a leak down and compression test on the car b4 you took it off the lot and paid for everything.

USUALLY, a car like that has been beatin on real hard, It may be kept mint, but that doesnt always tell the story.

Mint car though!

Im already looking into car dollies. the porsche in the garage is on them already. And as far as a leakdown/compression test. I didnt do it yet. Im not too worried about it. If their was a serious problem, it would be obvious. I did a 30 minute inspection myself on a lift and everything before i bought it. I know what im doing when i buy a car, so dont worry, ill be fine

Ill be performing my leakdown and compression test as soon as the car makes its way into the storage garage.
