In a previous job, the machine/auto shop had a pit. Not useful for suspension work, but nice to be able to stand up under the car. 
When we do the garage floor at my parents house, I willsee if they go for that

Not sure what the cost of something like that would be. You have to put in reenforcement along the top and sides because of the weight transfer. Steel angle along the top edge, drainage, etc. Might be cheaper to buy a hoist.
The biggest problem with a pit is forgetting it is there and falling into it.
