The second thing is the posts. Make sure they design the garage posts to match the house or the garage will catch your eye from the street. You don't want your garage to have more curb appeal than your house.

I'm not a contractor like Phobia, but I did notice those two aspects as well as the roof. This may be a dumb post and you already planned on matching your current house, but I'd say you definitely want a tiled roof on the garage as well.
I'd also try to match the brick from the house and try to incorporate what appears to be limestone under the windows into the garage design. Once again I'm not a contractor, but I did sleep at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
