I'm guessing there is nothing on that list that Leno would buy.
first off, Leno grew up in New England so has a value streak, I didn't say cheap streak but value.
Secondly, he buys cars and DRIVES them. Those have simply become show pieces.
The Uhlenhaut coupe is a museum piece and probably a stretch even for Jay, the other is a race car which isn't street legal.
As for the Ferraris. There are folks who take them vintage racing.
I honestly can't wrap my head around having that kind of money.

^11-15-2023. My 2017 NSX was at 20% oil so I took it in. It was at 11,540 miles. I had the first oil change done shortly after it was delivered on 2-12-2021, when it was at 3,622 miles.
^11-15-2023. My service advisor gave me the toy! I have been looking for a red one for two years. I have blue ones but I've never found a red one. Oil change cost with my oil. It takes 7 quarts of 0-40W Mobil 1, and has 7 drain plugs. I was charged $107.82 for the 7 quarts of Mobil 1 the first oil change. Amazon currently sells 5 quarts for $28 so basically half of what the dealership charges for the oil. I still have 2 quarts left over for next time.
^11-15-2023. Gotta start them young. He wanted me to start it and make it go vroom vroom. You betcha! It would vroom and then go into eclectic mode so I'd have to shut it off and do it again. He "drove" my 2017 Pilot the last time I saw him.

^ Nice to see that Honda spec'd a good oil for that car and didn't fall prey to the fuel economy czars wanting thinner oils.

That NA1 NSX looks like an Auto-art model. I have one in Berlina black. My other car model is an Auto-art S2000 issued to promote Honda accessories. Both have amazing details. Your pics really show yours off nicely.
Do you remember where you got the two tier display case?

There are two auto-art 600 SLs on ebay right now.
I just can't bring myself to drop nearly $600 on a model car never mind $3400 for the one in the UK.
However silly this would be fun to put a bunch of my cars on.
I can't justify this either. of course it's 1.275 meters long.. so around44 50 inches...
