A Boss at a former employer (car rentals) owned several tasty cars, including Honda s2000, Ferrari F360 (Very nice), Porsche 911 & a Benz E320 as a daily driver. However, most of the time, he would drive home a Festiva or Laser from the rental fleet!

My Dad's old company garage had a GENUINE 427 Shelby cobra that the "boss" picked up while he was at uni in the states. Beat that! They also had a Rolls Royce that was convered into a newspaper truck. Their surname is Fairfax. You may have heard of them.
My brother in laws neighbour has a DB9 and he lives in a semi by the sea . |

My boss was in the top 10 paid exec's in Aus last year.. Total package..$21 million..
 He drives a BF XR8. All our executives and managers get a company car, you can choose from: XR8 XR6 Turbo XR6 Territory Ghia Territory Ghia Turbo... I've got the XR6T... As the big boss say's... "Its a FORD or the Train, Tram or Bus" Needless to say, Ford like us and are pretty generous with the discounts.

I worked for a guy back in 2002. During that year over dinner he annouced to me that he had just taken delivery of his 36th Porsche, a GT2. His P.A. kept track of all his cars, often I would hear him ask where a particular car was. I know he also had a Nissan Skyline GTR (came from Japan) and also took delivery of a Lamborghini Murcielago in that same year. I know he had many other cars also but for the 18 months that I worked for him, that night was the only time the subject of cars ever came up. An extremely wealthy man but you wouldn't know it if you saw him in the street. Boardies and a t-shirt around the boardroom table most of the time.
