Got to see the first US delivered Pagani Huayra today. Full carbon fiber body, 230mph car with a V12. It's truly a work of art. Guy said he had the only one in the US, he's almost right, another guy in Louisiana took delivery of a French Blue Huayra ten days after the first one. His name is Tom Perkins, you can Google him. In fact when I asked "What do you do?" his response was "My name is Tom Perkins, you can Google me."

His net worth is 8 Billion dollars, with a B...and his daily driver is his Gallardo (believe me, he wasn't buying anything on my lot - I tried [Big Grin] ). He owns a Sailing Yacht named the Maltese Falcon....it's HUGE...

Anyway I know 80% skipped to the bottom for pics so here are a few [Wink]

One of my favorite cars! Gorgeous.

The Maltese Falcon is incredible. We sailed next to it a few years ago on the Bay. It's massive! Perkins sold it at least a couple years ago though.

Nice catch, that's why he was at AMPM on Madison Ave haha, he waited 6 hours with a police escort waiting to find a tow company that would tow the car to home in SF...

The batmobile is a production car lol. The cars ugly and the batmobile looks better lol. I'd rather have a McLaren P1 or a Lambo Aventador.

WOW Billionaire, flat tire in North Highlands, he's probably shitting his pants in the car. No wonder he had to call for a Police escort. What a waste of resources ferrying some rich douche out of the hood.
