The fact that Hot Wheels and Matchbox toys are so cheap means that countless kids have giant collections of tiny cars. But the world's largest? With over 30,000 scale vehicles in his collection, Beirut's !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! has a legitimate claim to that title, and Cool Hunting had a chance to tour his showroom.

An actual race car driver himself, even with his winnings Karam couldn't afford to buy every single car he adored. So he decided to collect them on a smaller scale—at least the cars themselves are small, not his Guinness World Record-recognized collection.

Karam has even immortalized some of his favorite race wins and other memorable driving moments in a series of 400 dioramas. So if you've got kids who leave die-cast cars all over the house, rest assured that it could definitely be worse. [ !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! ]

He strikes me as a self-centered "gentleman" racer, meaning he has more money than skill. Also, plastering your name on the side of your race car is amazingly tacky.
