Engram:
Cars can only be placed in a garage that is connected to an apartment. The car needs to be in a space considered "private property" by the game. An exterior parking spot is considered "public property" and cannot have a car placed on it.

princessheard:
how do i get a private property space?

HappyThoughts:
private drives for apartments can only be done with the add-on drive way peice with the garage door, it must be closed in.  I have finished a 4 unit with private drives for each, and yes it takes forever.  A good way to get a look at what it looks like is Belladonna Parkway Apartments (in your lot bin assuming you didn't delete it already and I'm only slightly sure thats the name of it) 
 
Never change the lot to apartment base UNTIL your positive you have everything finished, once you've changed it to an apartment the build options will be unselectable apart from wall/floor coverrings, garden stuff, and columns.  Only move in one family or sim to test the apartment to make sure it functions the way you want it too.  I don't know how many times I've had to move my sims in and out of my apartments fixing missed details.  And as the others have mentioned you will have to convert it back to a residential lot to fix any problems, leave and return to the lot to reopen the build options, then re convert it to a an apartment again. LOL Good times, I hope you've figured this out.  There's also a nice tutorial if you google sims2 building apartments.
