Insane local car collection

The Bugatti thread reminded me of this local collector. Here are some pics from the full time detailer. Last time i heard he has 80 cars and his garage is two stories that includes over 7000 sq ft with $250,000 in tile alone and includes some old MBs and a SL600.

No longer stock '06 E55, A3 3.2 Quattro, LRD4 HSE, R107 280SL
If you have the resources , why not?

And I thought jay leno was a one off... This guy may not have as many but he has some classics...

He is no doubt obsessed with shiny panels... Sure knows how to detail cars.

Do you know if he drives his cars much?

One thing I know is I could not afford his insurance!

Awesome garage. That dude isn't detailing his own cars, no chance.

And the bikini girls...must be nice to have sick $$$.

Just one of those art pieces on the wall probably costs more than my house...much less the car collection, or the insurance on all of them, or the tile work. LOL

Good for him, great collection!

That's an awesome collection. Our best local collector just died a few weeks ago. His car collection consisted of some 800 cars including the batmobile and the rolls royce used in Titanic. The NY times said that if this collection was all placed on the market at the same time it would drive the market down some 40%..

I couldn't find any good pictures but I did find this one from a few years ago.

I wonder what individual collector has the best collection in the world... It's pic #3 if the link doesn't take you directly to it.
