When you have more money than the worlds richest fictional duck, Scrooge McDuck, it only makes sense that you should take up an obscenely expensive hobby to match the millions (or billions if you rather).
Now there’s many hobbies you can take part in but really what better hobby than to collect exotic cars so rare they may not even really exists besides, well, yours?
While most of us would probably not be able to afford even one of these extraordinary classic cars, in the case of the mega-rich it’s all about owning as many as its physically possible to drive in for the remaining years of their lives.
We’ve spoken about this man before but we can’t get enough of his collection, and that’s Jay Leno.
In our last article, Carlassic’s Top 5 Favourites from Jay Leno’s Garage, we touched on a handful of Leno’s pride and joy.
There’s plenty more where that comes from. Leno is the proud owner of the following and their hefty price tags:
- Mclaren P1 Sports $1,733,712 AUD
- Bugatti Type 57 Atlantic SC $37,163,490 AUD
- 1969 Lamborghini Muira P400S $61,939,150 AUD
Batter up! Our next multi-million classic car collector is World Champion UFC Fighter, Floyd Mayweather
Earlier this year Mayweather tweeted a photo of his crazy car collection that has estimated to be a net worth of $8 million AUD.
This isn’t afraid of much including flaunting his money so it’s no surprise he has an extensive collection of flashy, exotic cars.
Some of these include:
- Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano — $US350,000
- Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet — $US170,000
- Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 — $US400,000

- The Bugatti 16.4 Veyron — $US1.3 million
- Bugatti 16.4 Veyron — $US1.3 million
Next is one of the most famous British F1 drivers, Lewis Hamilton. Makes sense for a Famous Formula 1 driver to own a more insane car collection than what we would have ever dreamed.
Hamilton’s loyalty shows in his collection, and what a freakin’ beauty that is!

- McLaren P1
