I don't get any great thrill looking at that collection either. This guy has so much money he can satisfy every want he has, yet he apparently never gets satisfied.
At least when I look at pictures of the Schrumpf (sp?) museum in France, I can appreciate that the brothers had a goal in mind, plus they did a really good job showcasing their collection; this guy here just has a warehouse full of really nice cars, AFAIAC. Seems like it is just lacking something. (I bet is smells great in there, though)
My 1988 stock Carrera mostly satisfies me (and in fact, the number or lack thereof of miles I put on it makes me sometimes feel like I am not owning it "properly" if there is such a thing, but I still love the car and lavish time and money on it as I am able.)
Just my musings.
