The only thing that is really way off on this list is that the F06 Gran Coupe should be number 1.

They have the e39 and e92 as 2 and 1. They are decent looking but beter than the f06,e31, 507 and e46...hell no. And no M1 on the list? C'mon...

That list is pretty wonky.

The F06, E38, E31, 507, and Z8 yes. Not sure about most of the others. While I LOVE many of the others, I don't think I'd call them "beautiful." Good looking car, great performance, luxury, all the things we love about them... But there are a ton of other striking BMW designs from history I'd put before something like the E92 or E46.... both of which I've owned (variants of), but neither of which I ever called "beautiful." Same with the E39. Classic, nice styling, yes.

These lifts are certainly becoming more popular. I know several folks that have them. I have been looking softly for one recently. Missed out on one at a home sale recently nearby. Was bummed.

I have seen pricing anywhere from $2,000 upwards to $7,000 for a residential style. Lots of different manufacturers out there.

Interested to here OP's experience with it so far. Also, to OP, what is your ceiling height (floor to ceiling) please?

Love it so far and use it almost everyday. My ceiling height is almost 11 feet. Wish I would have got the 220 plug instead of the 110 as it's slow going up and down
