Veyron - 764 miles / 308 miles
Enzo - 180 kms
Reventon - 866 miles
MC12 - 768 kms
McLaren - 134 miles

That's a really awesome collection and nicely preserved.
But honestly with that kind of mileage, you might as well take the engine out
and only buy a body shell to showcase in your museum.

:heckno:

I'd kill for that 959 :sweetjesus:

2000 GT :drool

Waaaaaaaaaaay cooler to see a hipster like me driving something like that then sitting in a museum


Got to log off and get back to "work"

In the year 3000 the last remaining running 959s will be like a Mona Lisa


Of the more iconic cars, I'd say a Model-T would be up there

Oh my god my end all be all dream car!!!!

2005 Maserati MC12 | Monterey 2015 | RM Sotheby's

What the hell could be rarer than the cars listed.

ITR

supposedly there's a lot more cars to be added from the collection but that's all that's up on the site for now

:megusta: that 300sl is gorgeous

288 GTO!!!!
BRB starting a gofundme page.

The fuck is he trying to buy instead? Obviously there's more rare but i'd say he's already in the top echelon of rare cars... Or maybe it's more he's just looking for a quick and easy way to "change" his collection.

that or the rumours are just bs, im betting on an old guy dying and his family are just letting it all go

959's ass has not aged very well
but it's fair to say this technical gem is underappreciated when compared to the F40 or even the Countach 25th Anni

holy fuck....remember to buy your 50 million dollar lottoMax ticket for tonights draw,i'm looking at that f50...the exhaust note on it is intoxicating.
But i bet Billionaires will be buying up these cars overpaying...it doesn't mean anything to them :(
must be his family....i know folks trying to sell private islands to go fund traveling around the world in their golden years....i mean this guy doesn't even Drive his car!.

Dear lord that 250 GT LWB California Spider is gorgeous!

This is truly "More you can afford, Pal" territory... :D

But damn that Ferrari 250LM :megusta::sweetjesus:

I have no words: 1994 Ferrari F40 LM | Monterey 2015 | RM Sotheby's

Truly a stunning collection.

any one of those cars (but the 959) Id love to own.

I just hope some of these go to people who will actually drive the damn things. 2 owners and 134 miles on that 2005 SLR is just stupid, when the lot boy at the dealer has driven your car more than you, you've fucked up.

I think there are about 50 MC12 made.

What's missing here is a CLK-GTR... with 26 of them in existence (road-legal spec). Especially the roadster, I think less than 5 were ever produced. They were literally track cars with less aggressive aero kit to meet the legal requirements and of course the ever so important A/C. :fuckyea:

The guy that owns ZR Auto has or had one in the same color. Saw it in person and it's now my favourite exotic of all time. I think there are 2 types one for road use and one for track. I believe there is one black track version that is road legal.

soldout results!
