Sounds like a standalone garage. Probably not worth it, unless you live in
it for any great length of time per day. Whichever you go with, be sure the
insulation does not hinder or block air entry from exterior vents to the
attic area. This goes a long way in cooling the garage in the summer
months.

Prices I've seen advertised were $1.60 sq.ft for a 1" flash coat (spray
foam) with R-19 batt, and $2.25 sq.ft for spray foam. (very generalized,
varies widely by local and mfgr.) In comparison, fiberglass batts are
around $0.70 sq.ft. installed. For a garage go with the least expensive as
the leakage around the overhead door is the main problem.
