There are some pre-fab house suppliers out there that can be closer to $150-175... Here in LA, with quality furnishings, its likely a minimum of $250 sq ft.
A house on my block in West Los Angeles is listed at what works out to $792 sq ft. The house on Mulholland Drive that I sold in '02 was recently listed at $2100 sq ft (it didn't sell)

Another idea is to buy up industrial shelving and use it for verticals. It will be an incredibly strong box structure, put a roof on top and add siding. If I wanted to make a mega garage I would pursue this path. Tall ceilings for a good car/truck lift. Could put in a lower ground level shelf rack around it, then a balcony level shelf rack above it.
