important Porsche 959 !!!
prodigy singer TVR SPEED 12 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i think-only 10 built,brutally fast, 0-100 3,something max 380

Famous prople have some really nice cars!

Hmmm.. not a fully comprehensive list, but still great :D

David Beckham has just bought a Lambo Gallardo

Jay-Kay has a G55 and a R-R Phantom amongst others

Nick Mason has a McLaren F1 and about 100 other cars, lol

I hope your talking in km/h and it does 0-100 in 3.6

Just proving that them assmunches steering F1 into the crapper have no idea/desire or even ability to drive.. ;) :P

lol, i don't think he had enough room to cover Jay Leno's collection!
the man has freakin airplane hangers for his collection, not to mention his own personal mechanic. I think only the Sultan of Bunei has more cars.

why is it that only the people who can't afford the cars deserve them and the ones that have them just f them up except for jay leno and jeremy clarckson of course.

That's life ;)

If you had the time to play all the time - you would have no time to make the money... :P And if you are taking all your time to make money - you have no time to play ... :D :lol:

because the world sux. if you really wanna feel like crap, watch the barret-jackson car auction on SPEED channel

Bill Gates had to prove to the uS Govermnet that his 959 would never touch public roads, he has his own track built on his island i believe. Just for his 959, thats how much he loves that car. I dont think he has that many other cars that are really nice.

Jay Leno has about 150 cars, the Sultan of Brunei has around 3,000 ....

and 2999 of those were purchased with "profits" stolen from his countrymen.. :)

The Sultancy is one of the most corrupt institutions on the face of the planet... :)

That's an in-Sult ... geddit :P

Leno's got the more distinguished collection IMO. Yeah the sultan has 4 F40s but he doesn't have nearly the classic cars that Leno has. besides, Jay drives his cars.

Re: Famous people - cars
 

I'm pretty sure he never got it (although he reportedly put a deposite down for one when it was unveiled at the Birmingham Motor Show years ago. As far as I know, there has only been one (or at most, 2) Cerbera Speed 12 built for road use.

Woah nice find! i didnt know mike tyson has a Black F50? well the more you know

Didnt realise bill gates had such good taste in cars- a 959!

he also owns a Mclaren, a skyline and i think a CLK-GTR :D

Heres the link to some of his cars in his own shop!

wow very nice link
bill gates 959 i would have never guessed

bernie made everyone in f1 rich? just look at the amount they are making now compaired to the pre-bernie time.

back to the cars,

rather nice list, just seems like they went around the net finding postest about peoples cars,

lol Ross Brawn- Ferrari 575 (baby didn't get an enzo :lol: )

** Cough **

Ahem ...Bernie was brieflly an F1 driver himself in the 50s

** cough **

He was instrumental along with Ralph Lauren to changing the rules so that the Mclaren F1 could be imported into the US without sending thru the drastic Ameritech route. I remember reading that Bill Gates regular driver was a Lexus LS400. He has a couple of Porsches as well apart from the 959.

Seinfeld missing from this list has a lot of Porsches ... dont know if he got the CGT.

they really need to update that list. Especially Jay Leno's

Seinfeld got his car i think?

damn 5 F50's????? one in every color???? and what the hell is a ferrari mythos?? well i googled it and found pcitures but i've never heard of it before.

I didnt realize this was the politcal forum .....

.....3,000 cars compared to 100 some is a big difference, and despite the rareity and distinctness of Jay Leno's collection, by far the Sultan of Brunei has a far superior collection ..... the majority of Jay's cars are historic American autos anyaway .... history is great and all but we all know Europe has put out a better product for the most part, and that is basically the composition of the Sultans collection ....

...plus I lost all respect for Leno when he said "I would rather have a Ford"

Seinfeld got his Carrera GT mid-summer ....

I heard that Axl Rose has a Murcielago. Is it true?

what is that word exactly?

The Mythos was a custom car from Ferrari, bought by the Sultan. He probably requested the build of it too :wink:

I have no pics at hand, but try searching for the Sultan of Brunei's cars :D

A brief and rather un-illustrious and short lived career.. ;) -- confirming the no idea/desire/ability comment :P

Hey anyone that can put forward $380,000 for a automobile (Maybach) even if it looks like an oversized KIA, is doing something right ...... and making more money that 99% of us.

as did he those 3 or 4 456 estates he had built for him. I'm sure hes had many cars built just for him, lucky bastad ;)

Edit, just realised they're listed. What aren't listed are several CLK GTR's he owns including the convertable version.

I didnt actually realise beckham owns that many cars. I knew he had a fair few but not that many.

I think Jay Kay has a few more than that too

watch out for the high-rolling cameron diaz in her prius

props to the sultan's bro...8 mclarens just can't cut it.

He said he would rather have a Ford over what? An Enzo? A Gallardo?
You lost respect for a guy who actually drives his cars, rather than someone who has them holed up in his personal museum somewhere? Because as we all know, cars are only made to be looked at.

Its a respectable point .... still I cherish European automobiles great history over that of America autos tradition anyday ....

nicolas cage - 250 km/hod is great relax

jordan - porsche cayene turbo
DB9 volante
