Here is your chance to get a $4000+ beautiful, sturdy car lift that I just purchased from Custom Garage Works here in Dallas a few months ago. I recently sold my GT4 so I don't need the lift! Original price was $4,160 installed. Custom Garage Works can be hired to disassemble and reassemble the lift for roughy $1,300. So with my price and the installation, you are saving over 20% for a lift only a few months old. I have also attached a PDF with the specs for the lift. You are also welcome to come take a look at it at my house in Dallas (University Park area near SMU).

Custom Garage Works has a fabulous rating and they supply the lifts for many of the high-end dealers in town.

Comes with casters to move the lift (if you needed to rotate it or move it out of the garage temporarily) and ramps. Feel free to email me with questions!

What is the height of your garage roof? Thanks

Note the OP has 2 low profile cars stacked, and his garage is deep enough so that the highest part of the upper car is ahead of the garage door when opened. With most garages, the door track needs to be raised closer to the ceiling and the center-mounted door opener motor needs to be replaced with a side mounted unit to provide sufficient space for the stacked cars. I've determined that my 10' 6" ceiling is just adequate if I installed a 4-post lift for a normal height vehicle and a low profile vehicle.
This looks like a good deal for a local buyer. GLWS.

My garage is 114" tall. I still have a few inches to spare with two lower profile cars. I also had this set up with a Boxster and an M6 Gran Coupe and it worked as well.

Thanks for the info for folks. I did adjust my garage door setting so that it doesn't raise all the way to give me more room. With my M6 I just back the car onto the lift and don't have to worry about the garage door at all. It's definitely wise to measure your garage and make sure you have the room. You can also adjust the locking points (every six inches) to adjust for the relative heights of your vehicles.

Yup , that's exactly what I had to do to install a 4 post lift in my garage. Now I can comfortably stack my 993 and Cayman R.

Nice deal for a buyer local to the OP. Once you have a lift you'll wonder how you ever lived without it.

It looks like my Direct Lift. It may be from the same company.

Just an update - I confirmed with the original installers that they can disassemble the entire lift for $500 and just need two days notice. If you live in Dallas, these guys can also have it hauled to your house and reinstated. Or if you live out of town, I can have it disassembled so you can haul it to your destination. This is a $4,200 lift for $2K plus $500 disassembly fee.
