3 cars in a double car garage

After two years of consideration, planning and execution my double garage 
now houses 3 cars...one up in the air above my S6.

The garage (detached) was lifted by building movers by 3 ft. A masonry 
specialist put a 2 ft wall of blocks and then the garage was set back down. 
In 10ft 2in of clearance, both my Alfa Romeo and S6 live peacefully one 
atop the other.

Two minor drawbacks to this solution:
1) I have to be careful opening the trunk as it will hit the 4 post lift 
crossbar...not a big issue.

2) The cellular antenna for the Audi supplied Motorola cell phone will not 
fit under the cross bar. Question, can you replace the stiff 13" metal mast 
with another shorter one? Can I bend the shaft without affecting 
transmission? Can I just leave it off (seems to work fine in the city)?
