Default Who's Car Collection Would You Take?

Okay, the name is pretty much self-explanatory, who's car collection would you like to inherit, steal, wake up and find in your driveway, etc. Doesn't have to be a celebrity's although I'm gonna have to go with Jesse James from Monster Garage and West Coast Choppers. He has a

'54 Chevy Lowrider
'57 Chevy Wagon (lol)
'32(ish) Ford Coupe
Lambo Murcielago
Ferrari 360 CS :shock:
Some stupid lowrider pickup
A tricked out SRT-10 Viper

and many many many more....apparently he has something like 30 cars!!

and he's worked hard and earned em all. ok, so if you could, list them cause it would prob make it more interesting. thanks!

inheret a car collection... Jay leno definately. although the sultan may have many many more cars, jay leno's cars are all about the car, not the appearance. many of Jays cars are one offs, and world record holders, and highly tuned vehicles... eg (highly modded Ford aspire with the 3.2 liter SHO motor with a pair of turbos. apparently, it has one of the best power to weight ratios of any street legal car)... as well as a Maclaren F1 ... to many others to mention
