When I go to my garage, I only found 4 cars. How can I get the rest?

If you mean your external garage that you can buy for $30,000, unfortunately these garages can only store a maximum of 4 vehicles. However, each character's safehouse has a personal garage where you can store up to 2 additional vehicles if necessary.
