to a customer....a retired Microsoft exec.

 

I thought I read somewhere that Leno bought the first one ???

 

Nope, he drove the one that was auctioned off for charity....but he doesn't have one yet.

I'm sure he will soon enough.

Nice color scheme. Hope he drives the fuck out of it, and doesn't keep it in a garage.

 

So did he walk into a Ford Dealer and order it?

 

Does it only come with manual? he sure does not look like can drive manual with that engine power.

 

Nerds with toys

 

those wheels suck

 

mean "wheel" you can only see one of them...


:P nice post.

 

Very nice.

 

i hope he was within 75 miles of his house! :P

 

I know since the topgear retards hit on the fuel consuption people would be talking about it. But it's no different that a Ezno, Viper, F40... list goes on, and on... And it's not THAT bad

it'll do more than 75 miles on a tank, no problem.

Fuel tank is 17.5 gallons, it will do closer to 245miles on a tank or more.

Note they didn't say how many miles they put on it at the track on topgear... just the choad Jeremy ran it out of gas...

 

he's a lucky guy

 

Only reason they got 75 miles on the tank was because the DROVE THE SHIT OUT OF IT! CONSTANTLY...

All cars get shitty mpg if your at redline all day long.

 

what people don't realize is the car was most likely at WOT the whole time

 

Jon Shirley....he's actually the guy who won the charity auction, paid $557k for the car.

Some more of his cars....

 

Guess he likes the Ferrari's, eh

 

wow, nice collection! I'm this means the GT will get little to no use, but hey to each his own.

 

I think I hate this guy ... no wait... that's just extreme jealousy

 

I wonder if he has a daughter that I could impregnate!!!

 

must be nice. im jealous, im' a hater.

 

I saw one on the road near a ford dealership like 3 or 4 months ago.... I thought they were out already?

 

We're all nerds with toys

 

sorry, I just assumed all 4 of them would match.

:P

 

I'd rather have that Mercedes 300SL than ANY of those other cars, including the GT.

 

My god. What car is that? 50s SL I'm thinking but I gotta know for sure... I'd seriously much rather have that than any of the others in his collection.

 

Leno has his now. He was talking about it on Mondays show when Tom Cruise was the guest.
That lucky 20-Million a year BASTARD.

Yep, looks like a 1955 or 1956 300SL roadster. What I wouldn't give for one. More specifically the 1955 300SL Gullwing. The car is like sex on wheels
