A Must Have for the Auto Enthusiast July 1, 2009 T. J. Winker (Twig, MN) Phil Berg is one helluva writer, and a damn fine photographer to boot. His first book, Ultimate Garages, was so successful that it spawned not only a sequel, but a load of copycats such as Dream Garages. This original concept is the one to have as the copycats don't even come close to the bullseye that Berg created. While you're buying Ultimate Garages, pick up UG2, and order UG3.
Great Book April 22, 2009 R. Salvi (Rio de Janeiro-Brazil) This is the book that i would like. Beautiful pictures, beautiful garages, beautiful Cars. I'm planning to buy soon, the "Ultimate Garages II".
not worth it March 9, 2009 David Armstrong (upstate ny) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book was really a waste of money. It was not very interesting and didn't really tell you much about the actual garages or collections.
It also fell apart an hour into reading it.
The form wouldn't process without me adding a star so I added the lowest I was allowed it actually isn't worth any!
Good overall read February 11, 2009 Jason Maguire (Middletown, DE USA) This book was a good read, learning some history of the collector as well as the automobiles housed in these garages. Would have liked to seen more overall photos of the space, but was a great book to learn how cars can be considered pieces of artwork. These garages represent a passion for automobiles and Phil Berg captures it beautifully.
Ultimate Garages February 10, 2009 Mary Jones (Midwest, USA) Book was used and it was in excellent shape. Looks new except for a minor scratch on the cover. I'm very pleased.
