but in my world, car hobby starts from the house with garage, not the car. i mean why have a nice car if you have to park it on the street or some apartment parking structure where wheels get stolen or doors keyed or watever that happens. if you have your own garage where you have access any time of the day, at least you can concentrate on the car, not fixing bs. i like progress, not rewinding to fix bs and waste time. i dont have time for that. another reason why i have a backup steering lock already... i dont like down time.

and i had homemade pizza tonight. charburgers and cheeze fries maybe friday. hahaha
You could live in a gated apartment complex with controlled access

Works for me that my parents garage with all of my tools is only 30 mins away.

Bottom line is owning a home or renting should really have no bearing on whether or not you have a nice car.
