My parents have a boat/rv/car storage facility southwest of the city. PM me for more info. Rates are pretty cheap, and a few members here can vouch.

Depends on the price... I plan to take it out every now and then but definitely no more than 1-2/week...

I'm going to look at a few 2-car garages where a friend and I plan on storing our M3s... if you search on craigslist.com you'll find quite a few available garages for decent prices

I might be storing a 911 starting Dec. 1, if that falls through I have a spot in Des Plaines for $75 per month.

Dude there isn't much on craigslist. I might be able to get space in a firehouse in Skokie; anyone interested?

I'm not sure but I found at least 5 for about $75-100 in Chicago on CL for 1 car, all garages... 2 car garages are a bit harder to find but they're there

I have a one-car at my place in deerfield that I'd be willing to not use for the winter if the price is right...
