    The 250 GTO in his collection is a recreation though, correct?

    I have seen his collection on other forums and it's impressive. Some amazing cars!!

    The 250 GTO is def a recreation but i doubt it was done by Ferrari..

    That 250 GTO replica looks terrible. I'm fairly certain he does not have the first 599 GTO.

    They do, and there is no way he has "number 1" of "599".

    There are some really impressive 250-300k GTO clones out there; and it's sad because this one really is terrible... and the fact it isn't 'just enjoyed personally' but rather... flaunted as a GTO? I dunno... Maybe I'm just a snob.

    could be and could be...
    I need to get more details on that from him... but i know that he pays anything for no.1 chassis.

    I've seen the 1/20 tag on his reventon, and 1/599 on the GTO and his name....

    It's really cool to see a 288 GTO in Bahrein though!

    Every 599GTO says 1 of 599...it just means he has 1 of the 599 599GTO's

    If I had a dime for every guy that thought he owned/had seen 599 GTO number 1 because of the plaque that says '1 of 599' I would have enough to buy a few of them. It is particularly unfortunate and embarrassing when an actual owner believes this. Great word play by Ferrari though, wonder if it was intentional. It ensures that everyone gets the gold medal!

    As I understand it, Ferrari wanted to avoid what happened with the 550 Barchetta where buyers were requesting certain production numbers.

    The owner posts these over on TS and him or a buddy of his update the garage when new cars come and go. Nice pics regardless.

    It's always a visual face slap to see so many beautiful cars in one place.

    Cobra, Miura, GTO, F40, CGT, 458, 300 SL ..great taste (The SLR Mansory is excused..).
