lol, i don't think he had enough room to cover Jay Leno's collection!
the man has freakin airplane hangers for his collection, not to mention his own personal mechanic. I think only the Sultan of Bunei has more cars.

Bill Gates had to prove to the uS Govermnet that his 959 would never touch public roads, he has his own track built on his island i believe. Just for his 959, thats how much he loves that car. I dont think he has that many other cars that are really nice.

Leno's got the more distinguished collection IMO. Yeah the sultan has 4 F40s but he doesn't have nearly the classic cars that Leno has. besides, Jay drives his cars.

I'm pretty sure he never got it (although he reportedly put a deposite down for one when it was unveiled at the Birmingham Motor Show years ago. As far as I know, there has only been one (or at most, 2) Cerbera Speed 12 built for road use.
