Who has the best collection

Westworld · Jul 27, 2004

I always been curious, who has the best collection of Ferraris, and to an extent, exotic cars? I know Ralph Lauren is pretty big into Ferraris (not sure what kind of cars he has), and remembering reading somewhere that Mexican billionaire Lorenzo H Zambrano has I guess a sick collection of Ferraris.

Look at some of todays rappers for nice car collections. Wycleaf Jean for example has an extensive collection, including his Mclearn F1! Also Busta Rhymes has a sweet collection wich includes a few hummers, jags and a lamborghini Murcielago.

Matsuda of Japan by far has the best Ferrari collection:

Oh and Okamoto (2 McLaren's and a few dozen Ferraris).

I should add that the first website only shows his Ferrari collection. He has more beyond this. Look at my gallery to see his other cars.

yep. the only question u can ask the sultan is, "what cars don't you have?"

True!! :lol:

But his collections is mainly on Ferraris, Aston Martins, Bentleys, Mercedeses and Rolls Royces. These are the one-offs. Then there are the odd BMWs. But he does not collect "classics" though. Mostly one-offs. And all the F1 championship winners since 1990?

Wow. Just curious, who is the "Sultan"? He a royal prince in the Arab World? How much is he worth?

Albert Obrist HAD the best Ferrari collection in my opinion. All the famous factory entered cars (sportscars, GT´s and single seaters) that played a significant role in building the Ferrari name and magic. All of his cars had very interesting (and race winning) histories.

and 50+ Motorcycles

See the Cars and Trucks here...

(but they are 1:18th scale

)

Then you add in my 400+ 1:64 scale Ferrari's...and the 500+ various other 1:64's...then go to my small (10) 1:43rd collection... :green: :green: :green: :green: :green:

I very easily have over 1000 cars/trucks/motorcycles in my collection. My wife can attest to that. :wink:

I may have seen one of his cars a few months ago. Any idea what color the F50 or Enzo is? I'll have to dig through my photos.
