Hi Everyone,

 

Im new here, recently sold my MR2 turbo so upgrade to a Supra (which i hope to get in the very near future :D ).

I was just wondering, does a Supra fit in a normal size single Garage?

 

Sorry if this Question has been asked before, I did try searching first.

 

cheers, Karl

another tip is to put the window down get out and the put it up. The windows curve inwards same as the MR2's

 

 

I had closure on the alarm with my MR2 so that was easy to get in and out of. But i know what you are talking about.

The worse part by my rekoning is getting it through the door, i worked out I'd only have about 2-3inchs either side but once past the door the garage widens alot.

stick some carpet to the garage wall so you don't damage your doors :)

 

:D Way ahead of you there, the garage is already completly carpeted. I spent alot of time in there beofre with my MR2 cleaning :cool: It was an obsession to keep it clean.

Do you have an "up and over" garage door? I have a piece of string with a weight on the end tied to the bottom corner of the door on the "near-side" (so when the door's up its like a plumb line)that way you know exactly where the side of the car is in relation to the door frame...

Well cheers for the help and ideas, i was paranoid that when i get the car home it wouldnt fit. I obviously wont be able to clean it in there like i could my MR.

when i had it in the garage i could easily walk down one side but would have to side step on the other side.

LOL - that's wider than my whole driveway.

At the bottom of it I've got an old 1920's garage built for a Model T and haven't got a chance of getting even the nose in. :(
