An 88‑year‑old car enthusiast in Newport Beach, California, has decided to part with a hidden stellar collection that’s been tucked away for decades. Among the standout finds are three early‑2000s super‑premium vehicles that seem freshly minted, having sat untouched in a garage—just waiting for someone to rediscover them.
First is a 2000 Ferrari 550 Maranello in Nart‑Blue with tan leather—its odometer reads a mere 564 miles (908 km), and it’s been revived through careful detailing before being sent off to its next owner in New York.
Next is the 2002 BMW M5 (E39), celebrated as one of the greatest sports sedans ever. Finished in Carbon Black with a black leather and wood‑trim interior, it has only 4,249 miles and recently sold to a buyer in Colorado.
Rounding out the trio is a 2006 Ford GT, the much‑admired Le Mans‑inspired supercar. This one is truly showroom‑fresh—it’s never been registered and shows just 720 miles (1,159 km). Finished in red with white stripes and boasting a mid‑mounted, supercharged 5.4‑liter V8 pushing 550 hp, that's paired with a Ricardo six‑speed manual.
Beyond these three icons, the wider collection revealed in garage photos includes everything from a low‑mileage 1973 De Tomaso Pantera, multiple Corvette generations, Bricklin SV‑1s, a 1970 Dodge Charger R/T, a Dodge Viper GTS, Plymouth Prowler, and even a Dodge Ram SRT‑10 pickup. While many of the cars may return to climate‑controlled storage, there’s hope that some will get a chance to be driven — reminding their new owners of the very purpose they were built for.
