We all dream about having bigger, better garages.

But now you can dream a little larger: How would you like your very own test track and vehicle development facility?

Courtesy of the car-fantasy specialists at Bring A Trailer, we learn that Honda is peddling its entire Proving Center outside Bakersfield, California.

There's no price given, but just imagine the fun you could have with more than 4,000 acres of shielded vehicle-development facility. It includes a 7.5-mile oval track, 4.5 miles of winding road, and a bunch of other test surfaces.

There are also off-road test areas, all-terrain vehicle routes, a workshop, a fueling facility, and of course a security station to house the guards who will keep away those pesky spy photographers.

Ah, to be rich ....
