Car Condominiums Meet Surging Collectible Car Markets
In Colorado and across the region, classic and exotic car collectors want spacious car condominiums. After a century long interest in local racetracks such as Bandimere Speedway, we’ve got several generations of car collectors in the area. Collectors may build individual units, often at great expense – one outdoing the next – to preserve the love of the automobile. The global classic car market in 2020 was $30.9 billion. That market may reach $43.4 billion in 2024. Owners want car condos that protect that investment and leisure activities.
Social Life and Car Condos
The automobile represents freedom of movement. Car condos are more than storage units or warehouses. Owners band together with their common hobby, meeting at car shows, fairgrounds, and private facilities. Conversation pieces, exotic and classic cars are often simply the hub. Surrounded with a lounge or club atmosphere. Social gatherings cement their bonds.
Who knows? A creative planned community could someday build a car condominium village for homeowners. The Autobahn Country Club in Illinois offers a racetrack for exotic cars – along with private ownership of car condos that hold up to 10 cars.
Custom Car Condominiums
Independent car collectors often design their own customized pole buildings. For example, Project #615660 could offer plenty of space for your sports car, old Hudson, Thunderbird, or Model T. Then, you can help to pay for itself by leasing car condos to others. Insulated, this car condo features a mezzanine, wainscotting, cupolas, and deep fascia. It measures 50’ x 240’ x 18’.
Enter the RV Era
Build a car condominium for yourself. Or go for a commercial rental operation serving travelers. Project #601593 (above) measures 60’ x 64’. It is 18 feet high, providing mezzanine space, an office, and a two-story porch. This project is part of the Autobahn Country Club. Inside, sleek lining and insulation by Lester is easy to maintain. Colony Green, Snow White, and Sandstone wainscots work well together for a color scheme.
Join Car Collectors in Denver
Keep your eye out for Corvettes, Camaros, Lamborghinis, and other collectibles. How about Volkswagen Beetles, tractors, or the Pontiac Fiero? At times, car collectors inherit or purchase barns full of vehicles. But a newer investor may be working on his first Ferrari. Either way, we can show you options for custom car condos to fit your exact needs.
