Can't see many Ferrari's though
he is not averse to modern cars but he owns very few newer cars.

Factoid:
> He has two full time mechanics for his garage!
> He once worked in Boston @ Foreign Motors so he knows his stuff
> His fav car is a 1934 (i think) Rolls Royce Phantom 2 that has 1000 HP Merlin v-12 engine (I was lucky to get a glimps of this mean machine when i had gone to see one of his shows in burbank CA, he drives a different car every day)

O another factoid... A 1934 RR Phantom was also owned by some maharaja of rajkot but now its part of a RR collection in germany - the car has an interesting history it was called the star of india.
