A MUST watch from Chris Harris

I could die happy in this garage. So many cars I have lusted after. NOTHING electric to be found. Even Chris goes on about losing all this with the advent of all things non ICE.

GOD what a collection.

Wow- amazing. I feel the same way as his about many of those cars.

Damn.

Those aren't the cars I'd collect if I had that budget though.

This is where I miss being able to go to the AZ auctions.

RM and Gooding host VIP cocktail parties the evening before the auctions (Gooding sometimes does a breakfast instead). You can walk around the cars and often sit in them (more often at RM... Gooding tends to have even nicer cars, so they are usually locked and only opened for potential bidders)

It’s really cool to attend and drool. I felt a lot like Harris in that video! But what’s amazing is that collection was as single collection...

I watched it too, and took away the fact that there are just so many cool cars out there. It's a shame we'll never get to experience 1/10th of the awesomeness that was produced.

That is awesome though I can’t help thinking every time the owner drives one of those cars are they like “oh jeez I have to go back to the dealer to get that fixed”

I'm guessing this owner has "people" for that
