Accidentally Stumbled upon a MULTI MILLION DOLLAR Ferrari collection!
Im on vacation this month visiting family and hanging out in the South of France and Monaco area. I was walking around my garden, and I hear a loud startup so I was like lets have a look to see what it is. I open the gates to see the neighbor in front of me is trying to back out his Gallardo.
Struggling to squeeze out of the spot, he flags me over to help him out while speaking Italian. As I walk closer, my eyes go wide to his collection. The older man was taking out the gallardo to Toulon to race tomorrow AM and gave me some history on his cars. (he just has this house to store his cars...and has a massive control room linked to the police station and can monitor his collection world-wide). The garage also had a pool in the back that you can see thru the glass windows!
Started off seeing this
Then saw this!
Original Daytona
Original 1957 250 Testa Rosa (one sold for 12 million in 2009!)
I forgot what the top car was! but bottom is an original california
and what an amazing 'man cave' literally, in a cave!!
I was in such a shock that I missed getting a picture of his classic Rolls Royce convertible, Diablo VT roadster, Viper ACR, Corvette Indiana Pace car and 456 GT.
He was such a nice guy and honestly made my life...my heart is still pounding!! Hope you enjoy!
Also earlier in the day spotted this GTO in forrest green!

Crazy! When I was in Monaco I saw nearly every car imaginable. Zondas etc. Always wondered where they squeezed those things into garages in that little city.
Don't quit, suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.

Wow, that is a great "stumble." Wish I could come across something like that when I am walking around.
