Ken Lingenfelter's Car Collection

**srika** · 03-26-2009, 12:27 AM

----------------------------
So, from time to time, Ken Lingenfelter opens up his car collection for people to come and check out. He warehouse has three separate rooms with around 25 cars or so in each room. The first one has foreign exotics, the 2nd has Vettes, and the last is muscle cars. I was only able to talk to Ken for a few minutes, but he is a great guy. Very down-to-Earth, despite being worth a few hundred mil. And most of the cars do get driven.

For those who don't know, Ken made his fortune in the title industry. He sold his company for something like 500 million. Then he bought LPE after John died.

BoostedJack has more cars than that. And better ones.

Okay, sniping aside: Holy. Fawk.

combat mediC · 03-26-2009, 12:39 AM

Ron A could take those cars if he wanted. And he doesnt need to put battery chargers on them either.

good post srika

**Yumcha** · 03-26-2009, 12:46 AM

Yeah, well...well...I have more robots than he has cars. SO THERE.

Seriously, holy fawk @ the collection.

**srika** · 03-26-2009, 12:51 AM

the Reventon...

also really like the older classics.

slowaccord · 03-26-2009, 12:54 AM

whoa. f40 and enzo right next to each other? that alone killed it. ugly ass bugatti but if you got the money it has to be part of the collection also

The mofo just has pretty much ever single effing car I'd slap your Grandma for...all he needs for that collection to be PERFECTION is to have a DBS in there.

And oh, a McLaren F1.

So, I give it um...an A- overall.

princelybug · 03-26-2009, 1:00 AM

Crazy...

**srika** · 03-26-2009, 1:09 AM

yea, missing F1, F50, also wouldn't mind a Zonda, MC12, 911GT1, CLK-GTR, maybe a Diablo GTR. he better get with the game plan!

**Yumcha** · 03-26-2009, 1:28 AM

How could I forget about the Zonda! And, and...where the eff is the Koenigsegg CCX...?!?? Or the MC12...?!?

Okay...I lied. He gets a B- now.

**srika** · 03-26-2009, 1:31 AM

yea Koenigsegg would be nice too. he sux

Yeah, I feel better now...

srika, that's a CRAP garage you just posted about. CRAP.

On a less sarcastic note, I'm also a bit surprised he doesn't have any BMWs (i.e. M1's, M3 CSL, etc.)...

I dont really like american cars at all, but if i had to have one it would be the GNX. I drove a slightly modded one that used to belong to Reggie Jackson, and that thing was scary fast. It would embarass all of the modern era vettes in a straight line. The owner also told me that there were like only 200 made or something like that too and that Mclaren built them? I dont remember but something like that.

mrmako · 03-26-2009, 6:47 AM

I....Just....Wet....My....Pants...... OMFG

What I think is funny is the Bayside Blue R34 is outside. That is very rare in the US, and it's outside. Maybe he was driving it that day. But Damn...

Nice collection.

bgsm1th · 03-26-2009, 7:01 AM

Just Google "Sultan of Michigan" - HUNDREDS more pictures out there... 6speedonline has a 10+ page thread dedicated to his new additions. Check it out!

Sorry, I just fainted.

invisiblewar · 03-26-2009, 8:30 AM

wow...you think hed notice one of em missing

?

iTimmy · 03-26-2009, 8:33 AM

Pretty solid collection, but there are some cars I am surprised are not there, some mentioned above, but no serious collection is complete with out a McLaren F1, in particular when there are a lot of exotics.

^he has a z8, it's right infront of this lambo

and if i barely saw that car, there must be others that aren't in these photographs

i dunno how he drives most of these all the time, so many decisions

...and if he needs a helper for driving some of his cars, i'll be first in line

MOST of his cars are not shown in the pics above...he probably has three times as many as is shown.

TommySalami · 03-26-2009, 9:28 AM

He has too many cars. He needs to give a few to me.

saintv90 · 03-26-2009, 9:46 AM

**synth19** · 03-26-2009, 11:32 AM

How the hell do these ppl maintain these cars? They must have full time mechanics, detailers, etc. on the payroll....

**srika** · 03-26-2009, 11:46 AM

thanks for the tips, getting more pics.

nokiaman · 03-26-2009, 12:04 PM

Not in my wildest dreams, would I even envision half of what is in his garage.

It's an absolutely stunning car collection.

**GreenMonster** · 03-26-2009, 12:38 PM

Nice collection, but I wonder if he ever drives any of them... Didn't notice and plates on any of 'em.

Seems like too much of a good thing....
