If your wondering "how the hell can someone afford to own such cars", well apparently the guy who owns all those cars, is the co-founder of Google

DAMN It Is! F40, F50, F60, like 10 Elise's, Carrera GT and is that a GT40, sooo rich but wheres the daily driven WRX? Imaging being rich enough to choose which car to drive or even buy depending on what matched your clothes. WOW

REXXX 04-05-2006 09:57 PM

awesome garage!

no chance it's Larry Page's though... Page and Brin are by all accounts totally against such spending.
Page drives a Prius.

Someone else on that forum said it was the guy who invented the bar code, but that guy (who also has shitloads of cars), lives in another part of the USA..

I think the tread title says it all...

Denver 04-05-2006 10:26 PM

poofter who took those photos has no taste

garage full of exotics, that the only racing herritage they have, is a badge, with the exception of a couple of the porka models

over int he corner tho, if you look closely, i spotted a stack of group b homogation specials, cars with a REAL history, and not one pic of them! ARGH!

westoz 04-05-2006 10:42 PM

One word...WOW!


Most of us would be ecstatic if we so much as owned just one of those beasts.

In case any 1 missed it... that's TWO garages...:eek:

Mat 05-05-2006 12:32 AM

Joe, if u wanted to have a look in my garages, you only needed to ask mate :D

Serious amount of coin involved there.

Andy 05-05-2006 12:45 AM

RS200 is by far the sexiest car of them all

then the renault 5 turbo and the 205 T16....omg..they are bat worthy.

saturation 05-05-2006 06:41 AM

pffft. with a garage like that hes probably got a veyron as his daily driver as well. oh dear.

Rexilla 05-05-2006 08:14 AM

the question now is........ what the rest of the house look like :rolleyes:

Neen 05-05-2006 08:39 AM

OMG :eek: I want one of those red ones!

Riggs 05-05-2006 08:44 AM

:eek: That is one hell of a garage!!! I hope he's not one of those guys that never drives them though thats a waste. Thats what I like about Jay Leno, he drives all his cars and a different car to work every day!! Wish I could do that!

AWDmoke 05-05-2006 09:16 AM

Exactly. All fantastic machines, but a bit staid.

Where is the tank powered hot rod? :3gears:

BOMB3R 05-05-2006 10:43 AM

I would be happy to just get a ride in one of those beasts, let alone own one of them!

REXXX 05-05-2006 10:43 AM

[QUOTE=Rexilla]pfft........have you seen the sultan's garage?! this guy's got nothing compare to the sultan i tell ya[/QUOTE]heh, damn straight.

Sultan of Brunei has over 5000 vehicles.
actually, [I]had[/I].
i believe he lost alot of his assets when he was divorced.
his wealth dropped from nearly AU$200 billion ("richest man in the world") to a measly ~$20 billion (30th or so on the rich list).
apparently his (very dodgy and now disgraced) brother Prince Jefri was responsible for ordering most of the cars anyways, just using the Sultans money.

at home i have a scan of an old Wheels article including photos from in and around his garages.

BALISTC 05-05-2006 11:04 AM

Would be less than 20 billion dude if he was 30th or so on the rich list, Steve Page is valued at 12 billion and he is something like 27th richest person in the world..

REXXX 05-05-2006 11:05 AM

$12 billion US$, i was talking in AU$ :p all off the top of my head anyways, which is all estimates.

[url]http://www.supercars.net/Gallery?cmd=viewGallery&uID=72036&gID=195&pgID=1[/url]

some of the Sultan's cars.

apparently the 6 speed sequential box in the Ferrari FX was installed by the Williams-BMW group and is basically from their F1 car. box is rumoured to be valued at $1mil+ alone.

Once again its a womans fault :D

e-rex-shon 05-05-2006 01:11 PM

Shit the sultan owns some ugly arse ferrari's. Super valuable but some of them are as ugly as a hat full of arseholes, especially that blue one with the lights half way up the bonnet that looks like an ugly mid 80's yank tank. Pinnafarina what were you thinking?

Wouldn't say no to any of them in my garage though!
