One of my favorite car stories (also with me being a
big Floyd fan). I find it funny, though, that the guy is supposedly worth like $150mm. Does that figure include this one single car that is worth 20% of that? I mean just a couple years ago he crashed his McLaren F1 GTR. What's one of those worth?
“When I paid £35,000 for the 250 GTO in 1977, I felt stupid to be spending so much — I didn’t think it would be worth £30m in 2016.”
