If you think that Jay Leno is only famous for his talk show, you are wrong. Not only does he know how to make people laugh, but he also knows how to amaze and leave them open-mouthed. Yes, we’re talking about his amazing collection of over 100 exclusive and limited edition cars and over 90 motorbikes. He began his collection in 1992, but his affinity for cars goes back to 1967, when he worked with Ford Dealership. Three football-field size warehouses shelter the precious jewels and 4 people are hired to take care of them.
Here are some of the most expensive and wanted classic models: a classic 1955 Buick Roadmaster which he bought when he got to California, a 1959 Fiat Millecento, a 1966 Chevrolet Corvair Corsa, a 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing Coupe, a 1966 NSU Spider, a 1966 Ford Galaxie, a 1941 Plymouth Special Deluxe Business Coupe, a 1929 Bentley Six Speed, a Jaguar XK-E.
We can also mention some of the about 15 antique cars: three 1930s vintage Mercedes, the 1937 Cord 812 Westchester and the DuPont Le Mans Speedster.
What would be a car collection without some Super Cars such as the Lamborghini LP700 Aventador in dark blue, the 2010 Lamborghini Murciélago LP670-4 Superveloce in white, the 2011 Hennessey Venom GT released only a month ago, the 2011 Audi R8 Spyder 5.2 V-10 FSI Quattro, an Bertone Mantide (only 10 such cars were produced) and the Pagani Huayra.
As if these were not enough, he also owns the jaw-dropping MTT Turbine Superbike (which got the Guinness World Record for “the most powerful bike to enter series Production”) and also a P-51 Mustang Fighter Plane, the Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress, the B-24 Liberator Witchcraft and the B-25 Mitchell Bomber. This is what we call a collection.
