Ken Lingenfelter's Car Collection
----------------------------
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.

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.

Someday, an RS6 Avant+
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.

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.

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

thanks for the tips, getting more pics. 
oh and,
oh and,
MC12 was being considered at one time when the Enzo wasn't bought, he went for the Enzo. When he finally saw an MC12, he was very happy he decided on the Enzo.
at all those battery tenders.

Not in my wildest dreams, would I even envision half of what is in his garage. It's an absolutely stunning car collection.
