For some reason I like this picture. For even more weird reasons I knew I was looking at a Mclaren MP12C before reading the caliper.

edit: ah! I bet it was the color.

Here is the info on this one. It's a Supersports but it looks like it has some aftermarket work, so I'm not sure that it is stock

Lamborghini Pregunta is a Diablo specially modified for the Formula 1. The Pregunta is powered by a V12 engine and it’s a fascinating prototype with great power and an extreme top speed.

Pregunta is a prototype vehicle, associating components of a wild beauty with the performances of a supercar. It’s V12 engine delivers 530 hp at 7100 rpm and has a top speed of 206 mph.

It’s technology is directly inspired by aeronautics and Formula 1: Dassault painting (that of the Rafale fighter-bomber), electronic instrumentation standard Marelli type Formula 1, interior lighted by optical fibre, video screens in the doors, seats and cockpit with ergonomics derived from the environment from the military jets.

^^ interesting. Pregunta is Spanish for "question". I guess the question was, "will this ever make it into production?"

Carrera GT $400,000 (new est.)
Ferrari F40 $400,000 (new est.)
Porsche GT2 $230,000 (new est.)
TOTAL: $1,030,000

Judging by the house in the background and the 4 car garage of the house in question I'd say the house can possibly be worth $1 mil. Also, you'd have to take into consideration if the cars were purchased pre-owned and what year model they all are. Also, you would have to take into consideration what houses go for in that area. I know it's Detroit but I imagine there are still some parts of town where the real estate demands a sizable sum. I would guess that someone that could afford to live in that neighborhood probably is saavy enough with money that whatever the case may be his balance sheet isn't sweating over that house or 3 supercars.

Oh, being a car guy and having three supercars in your garage is priceless
