No garage for me - and only downsides, pollen leaves a lovely layer on it once washed and the seagulls seem to love sh1tting on it, especially when it's just had a bath. Never (touch wood) had an issue with security with it, or my previous 6. Wouldn't not buy a car just because no garage - in any event these cars aren't supposed to be "garage queens"
I'm thinking the same..and still on the fence. Would love to have a garage and use it in the same condition I left it in, rather than leave it outside and when I come to use,find the largest pile of bird poo on it!
It also has the added benefit of never needing deicing / warming up in the morning or cooling down on hot days.

I use the garage, the Mrs uses the drive. Garage is a lovely luxury but I would not let the lack of a garage stop me having the car I want. Aftermarket alarms and immobilisers sort 90% of the theft problem...

Mine is outside all the time. Gets used, gets filthy, get crapped on (I wash that off straight away though) and is loved. Kids shoes everywhere inside too. Buts that’s the point isn’t it! Use it and love it. Every day.

Sure, garage must be for such car, only idiots keep cars in a open air
Valuable and/or old car like a DB5 yes. RS6? No way.
In our house a 2CV and a Porsche get the garages. The RS sleeps outside.

No garage, just a drive. But both RS's under CCTV surveillance -
