    Ross,

    Lucky you. Does your friend have a 599 GTO ? If so, how does the 599 GTO rate, as a driver, on his scale of favorite rides ? Just wondering out loud ......

    If this gentleman lives in Switzerland and has a large Ferrari collection - I beleive I know him as well. Very nice man... he may remember a young Culinary student coming to see his cars in March of 1990...and at that point he had 2 F-40's and Berger's 87 F- 1 car. Not only is he on LDM's speed dial - he was on Enzo's annual Lambrusco list.

    I think I may have seen one of the lowest mileage super car collection. They had two F40s and I think both may have been below 300 miles, one being the last production, the other with lables from parts as it was created last from the Ferrari Parts Bin. Stunning to see.

    Could have an LM, LM GTE, regular road car with special place in production (first or last), early F40 with plexi side windows, higher milege/driver car, etc.

    I'd have 6 McLaren F1s if I could. Standard road car, LM road car, GT road car, 95 GTR, 96 GTR, and 97 GTR. :) I just don't have $60 million for those. :)

    'cos they are older Ferraris -- one will refuse to start, another will be awaiting a belt change, yet another will be cross because her fuel pump is last years model and she wants a new one. The forth will have some odd electrical issue, and anyway, doesn't like going into second.. That only leaves one that actually wants to go out and play :)

    Never understood the premise of hoarding.

    I guess you don't have to. All that matters is it makes sense to the person who has these wonderful cars.

    I have 6 road bikes and 4 mountain bikes. They all are amazing and do the same job. My wife asks me "what's the point?"
    I tell her because it makes me happy.
    Maybe they are different color. Monday Tuesday Wednesday....

    Nice collection and I think I drove that Pagani! Wasn't it the one also used in TG?
    Was it located near Cahors? Sorry to hear he passed away.

    Ciao
