Here's the latest on the GT500... Unfortunately, because every reputable car transportation company is at the Barrett Jackson auction right now, it looks like we won't be able to get the GT500 until the 2nd week of February. :(

More exciting news!!! We just purchased a new Shelby GT350 that matches the GT500, black with tungsten gray stripes! Don't know yet when that is going to arrive as the dealer has not yet got it in, then we have to ship it to Vegas.

Yeah, I know what you mean Jurnymn. I thought my house's driveway looked bad-ass with my Cobra parked next to my mom's GTO, but this just blows my **** out of the water.
Very nice collection of cars. Not sure I read the list carefully enough, but why no Viper in there? If I had the money, I'd make sure one of those would be in my garage. Speaking of which, where the hell do you hide all these cars? Your driveway, at both of the houses mentioned, from the looks of things, don't look like they're that big? Just big garages?
Oh, and I love the little Subaru in the background of the M3 pictures. (Sexy car by the way!)

Thanks everybody.
I will explain a little about why we have the cars that we do in the collection instead of having cars like Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and such. We love all cars for what they are, not the badge on the back and we like to drive all of them. We are not out to show off and flaunt our fortunate life, we simply have a passion for cars and are out to build a collection of yesterday's and today's icons to have fun driving. A Viper is a great car, but honestly, it just doesn't stand out as a car that we have to have right now. We have cars that are faster in a straight line, faster on a track, more comfortable, etc. It doesn't bring anything new to the table for us and if we ever bought one, and we have debated it, we would get it just because its one of the staples of modern muscle cars. I could go on for hours about why we choose the cars we do. I have had to explain to countless people who thought I was crazy when I say I like the Evo more than I like the SL500 or why I will throw on multiple layers of clothing during the winter to drive the Cobra which has no heater, no top, and no radio when I have so many other more comfortable options.
As far as where we keep them all, for right now, the are scattered between my house, my dad's house, my sister's house, and our vacation home in California which equals 11 garage bays and then driveway space. We are already over capacity and will probably have to get a storage unit or rent a wearhouse for a little while until my dad is done building his house which will have a garage large enough for the whole collection and some room to grow.

AWESOME cars man, I really like your fiance's 350Z. Keep us updated on the GT500
Thanks. :) I will let her know that her car got honorable mention. We just put some other goodies on it and hope to do a real photoshoot of the car tomorrow night.

By the way, I just wanted to add how impressed I am with the responses I have gotten on this thread from you guys. I am a member on a lot of on-line forums and I can honestly say that this thread has been the first one that didn't go into a flame fest by page 2. Usually people will label me as an egotistical a-hole who just wants to brag or they flame me because a lot of the cars are my dad's, and then there is the ever so popular "BS flag." That stuff is expected and I don't mind it but my dad and I didn't build this collection to keep a secret, we love sharing our passion and the excitement we get from our collection. So thank you again for being the first forum mature enough to make me feel comfortable posting about this topic.

I'm happy for ya to be able to have what you and your dad have. A little inveous maybe, but it's cool to see you have the right attitude about being a car guy. Kinda like when I watch Car Crazy. I know that guy has the resources, but he really digs what he does and cars. All is good.

welcome to the forums!! today is my first day heehee.
and what a schweet line up. man i would hate having to choose which car to drive everyday that would be so hard i would end up never leaving. those are some sick cars man. may i suggest getting a Lotus Exige, i know they arent muscle cars, but they do have the best track times out of... most... cars, yeah thats my dream car, i couldnt think of anything more fun to drive.
The Lotus Exige is also very cool, but I already have a purpose built track car and as far as streetability goes, they are not very good. Have you ever sat in one? I am 5'10" average build and I have a hell of a time getting in and out of it and there is no way my dad would fit in it, he bitches about getting in & out of the 350Z and the Corvette lol. And sticking with the streetability thing, Vegas drivers are bad enough, the last thing I want to do is get a car that is hard to see if you are in anything taller than an Explorer :).
