According to a tip from a Jalopnik reader, the owner of 12 Ferraris — plus an incongruous but very cool Ford Thunderbird — also owned a real estate company that went bankrupt. Unfortunately, he had all the cars parked in a building owned by the company, so they're up for auction now.


Nice one, genius, next time, build a 15-car garage at home before you go bankrupt so that you can keep your cars until you default on the mortgage.


There are some real gems in the collection, including a 1985 308 GTB Quattrovalvole starting at a bargain basement $21,000, as well as an absolutely gorgeous 1965 275 GTB. Bidding on that one will begin at a not-so-modest $502,000, but you get what you pay for; it's sex on wheels.
