Well, you decide...but, I pretty much spat out my tea this morning when I saw this...

Hope it's not a repost...and if it is, well, it deserves to be reposted.
Found on Dieselstation.com...I urge you boys to scroll slowly through and read...

============

So, you are the son of a successful firm making office furniture.



And you like cars.



A lot.



The firm branches out and is more successful.



Very successful.



You can indulge yourself.



You buy nice cars - and race too.



Then there is an opportunity to buy some industrial buildings.


Great place to keep your cars – and show them to others.


Better still, there is even room for a small circuit in the grounds to exercise your cars (and give "taxi rides"), though you have garage registration plates anyway, so you can fix a plate on almost any car you own and actually drive it legally on the public road.

Pretty cool, huh?


OK, if you were super-successful, what classics would you own?

A choice Ferrari – or perhaps a particularly exotic Lamborghini – or maybe something even more exclusive? Oh sure!










Then...there's the 1st hall. Yes...Hall...

































And then...the racing hall...





Which houses Fisichella's Sauber F1 (just for you, F-C and Chief!)...





50's Ferrari...






Here is the British and North American hall...yes, it keeps going.

Okay...technically, it is not a garage. But, still...

And what is remarkable is that this collector has good taste in cars.

This is not a purchasing of the "flashiest" cars...he has good appreciation of cars. Similar to Jay in that regard. But, yeah...I'd take this collection over Leno's.

Long time race driver and owner, you'll only see the best cars in his collection! He's got a bunch of formula and track cars in his collection!

"In 1968 Lienhard founded Lista Racing and throughout the 1970's and 1980's he competed in Formula Vee and Formula Two. In 1993 and 1994 he moved to sports car racing competing in a Lola Can-Am car in Interserie division 2. In 1995 he acquired a Ferrari 333 SP and began racing in the European Sportscar Championship and IMSA GT Championship with teammate Didier Theys, winning the 24 Hours of Zolder in 1997. He moved to the American Le Mans Series in 1999. In 2002 he moved to the Rolex Sports Car Series SRP class with a new Judd powered Dallara SP1 and won the 2002 24 Hours of Daytona with teammates Theys, Mauro Baldi and Max Papis. In 2003 he competed in only two races due to a busy business schedule but began racing more regularly again in 2006 and 2007 competing in select ALMS and Le Mans Series races and continued to do so in 2008.
Lienhard resides in Niederteufen and is the owner of Lista Office LO and Alid Finanz AG, a manufacturer of office furniture. His son Fredy Lienhard, Jr. is also a racing driver. He sponsors the Formula Lista Junior and Formula Renault 2.0 Switzerland single-seater series."

That's a great collection of streetable cars!

The fact that the owner was a racer with means does explain the large number of really nice race cars.

What a collection, pretty amazing and well stored.

Holy hell...makes me want to die and hopefully racked up enough good karma in this life (unlikely) to be reborn into that family

If I had a garage that big, I'd have to hire a few hundred people just to drive the cars every now and then. Great collection, but too much for me. I would be happy with just 20 cars.

Wonder what his idea of a house is. Probably has 30 different styles of living rooms depending on how he feels.

Why is his "real" garage better than my Gran Turismo garage??????

I should be thanked for this thread.

Bdog

Ok, thanked you for making me feel that much lower in life since I don't even have a garage that will fit one car.

Yumcha

Well, I'm just proud of the fact that my car has heated mirrors and most of his...well, don't.

Aman

There's a pity thanks for you, Bdog.

HerTL

^^^^^Eggsblackly!!!!!!! Wow!

Yumcha

For the record, the one car I want from "Hall 1"...? That'd be the Ferrari F40, please.


I saw it first. All of you...BACK OFF!

Bdog

Not the silver Aston Martin or the Jaguar XJ220?

Will Y.

Look, you dork, there appears to be at least one example of every street Ferrari and Lamborghini since the late '50s, so get your stinkin' F40 out of the way of the real cars like the 250GTO and Miura for which the rest of us will settle.

Yumcha

Zipit, dingis...I know exactly what's in that Hall. But, I just can't pass up my childhood and current fave.




That collection is like suddenly discovering the Island of Hawt Women and all of them are Victoria Secret models.

speedemon90

Go find another garage with that car haha

but seriously....

WOW

But seriously.. what is there a need for so many cars. I would probably have 10 max. Then again, if I had as much money as he does, I might be saying 'I would have 1000 max'

Yumcha

Here's the Dino 308 GT4...
