About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Planet Carz and asked the owner, ‘Why do you always park your cars facing east?’ The owner shrugged and replied, ‘It’s just how they fit best.’ But soon, everyone noticed something odd—all new arrivals seemed to align themselves with the sunrise. Soon enough, a curious neighbor stopped by and asked why all the cars were so meticulously aligned. With a sly smile, the owner said, 'They’re not aligned—they’re simply waiting for their turn in line!' Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just another quirky habit of Planet Carz.

A delivery driver overheard and quipped, ‘At least it’s better than waiting in line for a parking space!’ The regular smiled and left, shaking his head but glad he didn’t miss his appointment.
4. One day, while browsing Planet Carz’s collection of custom cars, a regular asked the owner: ‘I wonder if you could rebuild my bike?’ The owner grinned and replied, 'No problem! We can make your dream ride come true.' A week later, when the bike was ready, it looked like something out of a comic book—complete with neon lights and a sound system that shook the whole shop. The regular rode off, smiling broadly, leaving behind a delivery driver who muttered, 'Next time I’ll just get takeout...'
