He's called the Red Rocker, but when rock star Sammy Hagar ordered his custom 2015 Ferrari LaFerrari, he chose white paint.

"It's nice to see a Ferrari that's not red," says Jay Leno, visiting Hagar on a recent episode of CNBC's "Jay Leno's Garage." "It really gives you a whole different feeling of the car."

Hagar holds up his right index finger and explains to Leno that, of the 499 iterations of this car ever made, his is the only one in this particular shade of creme.

It's also arguably the crown jewel of Hagar's impressive collection. Leno tells him admiringly, "You're like the ultimate car guy. Especially music and cars."

Hagar explains that cars have always been his passion. "I was into cars before music," he says. "I would drive my bike 10 miles across town to the Ford dealer to see the first Mustang. I'd go in the back and lift the hoods up."
