If the garage is too small because the house is so old, I can almost understand. But if it’s because you have too much shit and you stuffed it in your garage, screw you, enjoy your tickets.
Mine was built in the mid-2000s, and thanks to the way the face furnace+AC unit is installed, 14.5’ is the longest car that can be parked in it, and even that’s not ideal because it leaves no space to move around. At least a foot shorter is better and two feet shorter would be ideal, but that eliminates the majority of what’s being sold in the US today.
I don’t yet have a car but will be needing one soon, and it’s a real pain, especially since I’d prefer an EV which further cuts down options.
Look into the Fiat 500e, at least here in Europe it's reasonably popular and should have ample space left in your garage. Pretty decent to drive as well.
