Cool! I like seeing the f150 in that list for a change, that was unexpected.
I wonder if they're bullet proofed before they actually take delivery.
For rich people they own some boring cars. What was with that Volvo? The guy is worth billions and drives a buster ass old volvo?
I bet Flo could beat any of those guys at the lights. Wouldn't that be awesome. :lol:

Yeah i heard about that, the guy still uses coupons from newpapers flyer for groceries.
I guess thats how you become a billionaire and STAY a billionaire. Hence some of the cars, they are smart and dont waste money.
the only ones that show the part are Prince Alaweed and Lawrence Ellsion, everyone else is faking the funk.
billionaires get driven and don't drive. thats a pretty weird list, the only car that those billionaire drive that i want is the 959, if you don't know the spec go and look them up.
I wasnt shocked to see the Eastern Indian person showing off his money with the 5 cars that are in his garage.

I remember when the 959 came out. I don't think it was certified to be driven on public roads in North America :(

haha it wasnt 5 cars, it was 10. 2 of each kind, one for him and one for his body guards, or so the article says.

You think any of them have ever been down a drag strip... it took us all night to get a guy in a Jag XR to cut a decent light!!! 2 seconds at the tree!!!!

EXACTLY!!! They are pampered with "drivers"..... and the cars that they have still are the sentimental, or the first cars they bought, or just the stuff that they never gave away/sold or auctioned off.... Or they just don't care.
I would hate to see my garage if I was a billoinare. It would look like a used car dealer.. not that the driveway doesn't already... I have 4, my bro has 5, my dad has 4, my mom 1 and soon to be 1 for my sis. There is a 56 f-100 truck frame out there somewhere too.... if that counts

Self made billionaires become so by living modest lives. I think you and I are alike in that regard.
