Materials for framing and roofing will be about the same cost. 10k or so with unfinished walls and no electricity if you are doing a pitched roof and tabbed shingles.
I would budget 25-30k for a decent shed.

Don't you mean $1000.00 in concrete?

Good catch, your right on the concrete costs. After finishing take 9k off of everything I said, ahahahah. Sorry, that was past my bed time.
My guess is now 21k, without exterior walls.

My dad just built another garage at his house, a lot bigger than a 2 car and it's got a kitchen, bathroom, viewing area, workshop, and loft. Our concrete prices must be down in this part of the country because, his slab entire slab, side pad, and driveway was $10K.
bathroom
unfinished but, pretty much finished. The floor has been stained now, couches, and a rug added.
ceiling, which is actually wood flooring.
Kitchen and side door.

Yellowboxster01,
A Ford GT and Ferrari 355 Spyder? Are you kidding me? 
p.s.
is the new Ford GT, 40" high like the original Le Mans car?

Thanks all. I appreciate the tips, prices and the garages to aspire to.
I'm keeping the lift in mind.
Yes, I will need to get permits.
I live in the city and am worried that I'll tick off the neighbors if I build a monster garage.
