You guys are all forgetting of those much richer folks who don't even bother to show off how large their collection is, possibly because they don't bother to walk from one building to the other just to change brand or color...oh wait, I know this guy...

I'm with you on that one...the garages and photos are quite impressive, but just about everything was mainstream exotic (if that makes sense). With all that obvious wealth, it would've been neat to see something more out of the ordinary for that realm...kind of surprised there were no Veyrons, too...

I wouldn't be exactly upset with some of the choices though.

Probably, a lot of them are simply wealthy and like the cars to show that wealth off, but they aren't necessarily car guys themselves.

In order to show off those cars and garages that way, you probably at least pretend to be a car guy.

Yeah, me either...in fact I'd take any of those cars (except maybe the Lexus SC or the Vettes)
