A friend of mine is a Bentley/Rolls mechanic.  Part of the dealership is also McLaren.  He sent me this pic today of these two Speedtails that just came in and are going through new car prep.

Crazy, considering these aren't even street legal in the USA.

*Unless they are Show or Display registered*

Makes me look like peasant scum because I only work on Ferrari and Maserati lol.  Those cars are awesome looking, I'd like to see one in person.

My friend used to work at the Ferrari dealership in Orlando.  They sent him to Maranello for factory training.

My favorite 4 million dollars in a picture. 

Back story. There were 5 of these doing track testing at COTA when I worked there.

Here's about $4M in one picture I took, unfortunately slightly out of focus:

Five 959's, one F40, one Gullwing, and more. There was a Speedtail, three more 959's, and two 917's in the other bay.

Actually since a Mirage goes for $18k, $4M would only buy 222 mirages. It looks like the cars are lined up 20-wide in that pic, so $4M would roughly be the Mirages from where the "camera" is to the yellow line:

All these cars pictured are great...but I'd still rather have the P-51.

Give it 6 months, then the entire lot can be had for a cool $500,000

My goodness - where is this dream land?? Is it part of Canepa? And is the white car just beyond the F40 a Porsche 910?

Yes, Canepa. I don't know what the white car is. 
Swung by yesterday and took this pic. Six 959, one 512BB, a Gullwing, abunch of other high-value cars, and........a 914. In other parts of the facility: a Lexus LFA Nurburgring edition, two more 959's, four current gen Ford GT's (one race version), two Carrera GT's, a Mclaren speedtail and P1 GTR, XJ 220, EB110, too many 993TT's and 964's to count, a 427 Cobra, GT-2RS, and a crapload of cool historic race cars.

I have my kids standing next to a Ford GT road car that sold for $6.5M and a Shelby 427 that sold for $3.5M with some very expensive cars in the background from Mecum Kissimmee this year. Blows my mind.
