Here's a picture from the first time I visited Ken Lingenfelter's collection in 2010. Kind of hard to tell, but yes, that's an F430 Scuderia, Enzo, F40, and 288 GTO all in a line.

And of course, the only place where a GTO/Monaro is presented just as well next to an F40.

That is possibly the most tasteful collection of Ferraris I've ever seen. (with the exception of the F430) Wow!

That's like 1/3 to 1/2 of them

There's more? Lemme guess, he also has a 250 GTO and a Dino? That's seriously impressive. How did you get the chance to see his personal collection?

No the 288 was the oldest Ferrari he had. Most of the other Ferraris were from early to mid 2000s, although he has acquired an FF since this photo was taken. The collection is amazing. A big warehouse style building with three rooms. One is all exotics—Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Porsches, a Vector, Saleen S7, the list goes on. Another is all classic muscle cars, pretty much anything significant you can dream of, and another is just Corvettes. He has a lot of historically significant Corvettes, including the first Corvette ever fitted with a V8 engine (literally the prototype), a ZR1, some Callaway 'vettes. Pretty much all of them. I think he has ~150 cars.
The collection usually isn't open to the public but he and his wife open it up occasionally. Usually for charity events but sometimes just for local car clubs and stuff. The first time I went was with a BMW club, and then a couple times to random charity events. My mom sort of knows his knows his wife, but rich people like that know a lot of people so that doesn't really mean anything haha
