Ownership Layer
Public garages are the right first step toward community
VINthusiast works best when the social layer reinforces ownership context instead of turning into generic comments. Public garages let owners share cars, photos, service work, and setup without dragging the MVP into a marketplace too early.

Garage profiles
Public-facing ownership showcase for cars, service history, and setup context.
Next
Owner photos and notes
More personality without forcing full listing comments everywhere.
Later
Moderated discussion
Only after accounts, controls, and ownership identity are solid.
