A collection of 13 super cars worth over $50 million

We don’t often see large collections of expensive cars, because they are hidden from the eyes of the beholder. However, one collection of 13 super sports cars worth over $50 million is parked at the Los Angeles airport.

Driving by the airport, vlogger “effspot” recorded a video showing 13 cars hidden under nylon. It is not known who owns the collection, nor why the cars were left outside. Is the current owner transporting them to a new location or are they on their way to a new owner?! Either way, we hope they will not stay out in the open for long.

The collection consists of some of the best super sports cars such as Porsche 918 Spyder, two McLarens (Sabre and Speedtail), Porsche 911, Pagani Huayra, Lamborghini Centenario, Ford GT, Ferrari LaFerrari, Bugatti Chiron, Aston Martin One-77 and several

models .
