OK I have this neighbor who is an absolute car encyclopedia, specifically German makes. Surprisingly we met by him stopping me in my parking lot to compliment me on my car when it first got delivered over 5 years ago. hes a little "different". He takes the metro rail to work everyday, if he does drive its in his early 90's Chevy Suburban. Because he lives in a condo his cars are stored in various garages, only a few are stored here. He almost never drives his cars, but he likes them to be "driveable". He collects cars with a history to them...he has amazing stories for all of his acquisitions, he literally travels the world to get his collection. I do not have a complete list of his cars. Cars that I know of, dont hold me to their descriptions until I get more info:

Aston Martin Vantage Volante Widebody Left hand drive
BMW M1 AC Schnitzer twin turbo
Rolls Royce Silver Cloud
Original Mercedes AMG Hammer
Keonig 500SEC widebody
Mercedes SL300 Gullwing
Some weird BMW 3 series modified by Alpina with a 4.5l turbo




gotta love the club on a gullwing, lmao

Ya he is WEIRD...

Gotta love his anti-theft solution for a $500k car....

ROFL

I want to see some pics! I have a friend with an Original Hammer but its not in the best shape. Would love to see his hammer. Very few are left!

Does he leave that 300SL in that semi enclosed garage all the time? Insane if so! Had a friend who had a collection of cars with 2 300SL's but they were in climate controlled garages along with his SSK's, 540k's and other pebble beach winners.

I do like the fact that all his cars are drivable however! You need to use the cars. European (normally living in Europe) car collectors are quite fun since they use their cars and allow them to have some signs of wear.

im dying to see it also, there is something down in the garage now but i dont know what it is, looks like someone hit it, some white 500sec with historic plates, ill shoot some pics later. Yes the sl is semi enclosed in the summer, the rest are enclosed all of the time.

Please, PLEASE get pics of the Hammer and the M1.

Please.

I was about the same thing.

Very nice car

WOW! He is Brave With DC not that Far away or PG county....

Here is the latest chop on what the new/updated 300sl SLC will look like.

What cha think??? Latest hp #s are 620hp V8. Gotta be Turb 6.3 no?

^^^^^^^^ grill looks ugly.

I'd love to see some pics of the hammer, one of the original super saloons.
That gullwing deserves a spot in a nice garage with access of course to be driven, not a parking deck, with a club for protection. Nonetheless nice cars.

He has a few 560sec's this one is an ultra ultra rare Gemballa 560sec , doesnt appear to be in the best condition but its definitely a collectible. Sorry for the crappy pics.

steering wheel mounted controls for volume, etc... in the mid 80's. Sweet.
i love 560 Coupes

That steering wheel has more buttons than our 55s do. It sure is rare

Tell him I want to race for Pinks

Nice collection. I will see if I can get some photos of my friend's collection of 30's, 40's, and 50's vintage cars. Maybe someone can identify the WWII German motorcycle. He also has on Indian and an HD military model. I will see if I can shoot some photos this weekend.

yea, that steering wheel looks like the Mach 5 on Speedracer... nice collection!

any pix of the m1, or the widebody AM, and the turbo 3 series?? i wanna see!! sooo bad!!

wow very nice cars !!! take some more pics !
