    I found these images over on SupercarFrance.com in a post by WRC77.

    I tried to find a link to a gallery, but got lost on the website noted in the watermark so I'll just embed the best ones here for everyone's enjoyment. :cool:

    Wow! Isn't that everyones dream garage ! Imagine just trying to organise these cars to get together for a photo shoot, never mind being out in your back yard admiring them and choosing which to take out for the morning paper as you munch on your croissant.

    Nice find looks lime someone is living the dream.

    Quality not quantity there. The collection certainly showcases the special models Ferrari has offered in the last few decades...

    WOW; amazing collection there. For me, the only car that is missing from that group is the 250GTO.

    Fabulous!

    Thank you for whoever that answered my prayers for shooting the 599 and 288 together. What an awesome pair!

    Agreed, looks fantastic.

    It's amazing how the 599 GTO dwarfs the 288GTO.

    That shot of the 288 by itself, from the front-right 3/4, is absolutely beast.

    Gorgeous car.

    I hope SOMEBODY here has some more information about this guy. That's just amazing.

    His taste is clearly exceptional, but one can't help but add up the dollar figure on the cars in his little garage.

    MORE!

    Poor guy has all those cars and yet no 250LM ...

    Why everybody gets so excited about the looks of the 599 GTO is beyond me, another ugly and flippin HUGE modern Ferrari!!

    +1. The 599 GTO makes the 288 GTO look like a scale model!

    Breathtaking collection!!!!!!

    Extraordinary!
    This particular picture reminds me of the old 'Justification for Higher Education' poster, only with an infinitely better selection.
    I only wish it were a panoramic shot, and in high res.
    Thanks for sharing!

    You might say little garage but if this little garage turns out to be in Monaco, then that little garage will be worth as much as a 3 bed flat in Paris.

    I would have been more than satisfied with the Enzo, F50, F40, AND THE 288GTO. I wonder how long it took him to collect this delicious supercars? I'll keep all four for the weekend. The 599GTO would be daily driven.

    all plates are showing the 94 department (nearby paris), so I cannot believe that if someone was having such collection and being based in Monaco he will not bear monaco's plates on them.
    It should be interresting to know who is the happy owner of this nice collection, but in the same time for several reasons it wouldn't be sympathetic to disclose who is behind such great concentration of super ferrari.
    Finally, I should add a 360 cs and a 430 scuderia to this list, just to get it perfect (for modern cars!)

    by the way the plate on the 599 gto is also showing "levallois" where is based the head office in paris area of ferrari france, so this happy owner is certainly based in 94 department nearby paris

    Great collection! Interesting to see that here in the USA too, there are several who have a 599 GTO coming who are looking for the heritage car (288 GTO) to compliment it.

    Lovely collection.

    Would be nice to see them all out for a proper photoshoot at some point.

    Is this owner well known for having a collection like this, or have these cars just appeared out of nowhere?
