I too will end up having a lift in my garage once I get around to owning one. Just moved into an apartment with a garage that just barely contains the bonnie. My wife'* Alero (company car) looks like I could turn around in the garage, but the bonnie just barely fits, LOL! They are definitely useful things and with the prices dropping like they are on them they aren't all too far out of reach for the DIY'er. A lift will definitely help with the frame-off I'm going to be doing on my chevelle in a couple years.

Better yet, if you are building a garage (like I hope to someday), just build in footers into the concrete slab for the future installation of a lift. Just make sure that you pour them wide enough and long enough to facilitate the use of various different lifts so you aren't locked in on one design only to have it be discontinued when you are ready to purchase it.
