Completely amazing. I am finding my awe of his collection difficult to put into words on a computer screen. If those are his cars, Imagine the other toys he must have.
I am totally in the wrong line of work. How, exactly, does one go about becoming an oil baron?

Quite the collection. CLK GTR and 911 GT1 are the two that stun me the most. What i do like about Ben Sulayem is that he drives them the way they were meant to be driven :cool:

Move the cars from the yard and start drilling holes.
Or have you already tried it and that is why the Japanese call you "bakka gaijin"?;)

You have to have owned a total of seven Ferrari's in the past to qualify for an Enzo. That coming from a sales man at FOH. I'm still trying to figure out why he would post on cardomain.com :uhoh:

Really? Wow, I never realized this. I guess it means you must be a true elitist to own an Enzo.

Why is that? I suppose they may want to promote brand loyalty or something. If I manufactured cars and somebody wanted to buy one for big $$$ then I'd let 'em, even if they didn't own a car previously. :2cents:

Well, they only produced like 400 or something.. maybe they wanted to filter out some of the orders for the true Ferrari loyalists.

It's more or less loyalty. Ferrari isn't just a car company, its a history, passion, a work of art. It's something that has to be truely appreciated. And any die-hard Ferrari fan knows what I'm talking about. And Ferrari feels that a certain number of cars qualifies someone for ownership.

United Arab Emirates :) I wana live there some day. It's a very rich arab country.. in fact most of arab world is faaar more rich then united states for instance.. it's just that rulers are often corrupt.. and well.. usually yeah.. well not that US isn't heh.. but I mean yeesh.. so much corruption only own interest.
I might live in UAE some day who knows :) Might visit this guy's car collection heh.
They have lots of TV/media there too and that's like welcome for me since I'm sort of studying that sort of thing (animation in my case) so who knows. I want to live in middle-east. I used to live amongst arabs in Libya and Tunisia. But whatever.
Wow it's the first time I saw someone with an actual CLK-GTR! NUTS!

7 Ferraris for an Enzo???? Damn- I guess that rules Greg Murphy out as my number 1 choice for NZ's sole-Enzo owner :( Mind you- Continental Cars isn't a dedicated Ferrari dealer- more of an agent- so they could very well be the owners of the car and lease it to whoever they want :D
But this guy has an amazing collection- the CLK GTR is what does it for me. I'm converting to Islam :)

You guys ever sene a red CLK GTR? It's 10x better looking IMO, and the GTR already is a sexmobile.
The firts guy does have quite the collection, but are all of these his grocery getters?
To those talking about UAE, defintely a place I also want to go. There's a guy here in res from Dubai, and he just bought a 2002 M3 a couple weeks ago, now his family has that and a pair of Benzs. It is a very, very, very wealthy region. He also brought me back an 'Auto trader' from there, there's everytihng you coudl think of for sale, and then some, one ad was even for a Maybach Cabrio.

I thought matada's title was "Bukkake Gaijin"
Same lines as the Toskin thing, I guess :p

Maybach Cabrio? Is Cabrio short for Cabriolet? If it is then someone is taking a plasma cutter to a very expensive car!!!

That was evil. Plain evil. Now I have to come up with a new title. Everytime I see "baka gaijin" i will get these nasty visuals.

Highly doubt they'd use a plasma cutter, there are several shops aorudn the world that do custom convertible work on any car. I've seen pictures of a BMW 740i Cabrio, Lincoln Towncar, and other oddities. It's probably doen by a shop aorund there, for a fair bit of money.
Looking at the pic now, it's a 2-door Maybach, may just be a photochop, prolly is, but they have 5 regular Maybachs in stock, 1 Enzo, 1 '60 Ferrari 250 California Spyder (1 of not lots) amongst the other regular ferrari's and Porsches, a bit of credibility, no doubt.
BTW, if someone could look up as to what a Porsche Sbarro is, they ahve one for sale, and a pic, it looks like nothing I've ever seen or heard of, I'd do it myself, but 2:39 am is a little late to be car surfing, not for posting though.
