This bright orange, 1969 Lamborghini Miura S is a favorite of car enthusiasts everywhere. It’s been called “one of the most beautiful cars,” and very few vehicles can stun quite like this one.
The Miura was first introduced in ’65 and was designed as a publicity stunt – and it worked. After the manufacturers saw the response to the car, they decided to go through with production. The vehicle, while initially sold for around a half a million, is now worth between $1-$1.5 million.
Autocar
This (very) old coal truck is probably one of the earliest automobiles you’ll ever see. Initially built in 1916, it was designed so long ago that it wasn’t even made with seatbelts!
Autocar’s were crucial in their time, especially during the colder months when they were used for transporting coal to keep people warm. There’s no question that this thing wouldn’t be able to keep up with the majority of his cars on either the street or track, but it’s still an exciting addition to his collection.
EcoJet
Leno and his 2006 EcoJet wowed at a couple of appearances at a few different shows throughout the years. The EcoJet is a concept car designed by GM at its Advanced Design Studio. With a whopping 650 horsepower jet engine, everyone knew from its conceptual stages that the car wasn’t going to wind up going into production.
Still, it only fits that the entertainer would have his model. He did, after all, help initiate its design. It began as a sketch on napkins and now sits in his garage among all of the other toys.
1957 Chevrolet Corvette
Considered by many to be one of the best American sports cars ever created, Leno’s Chevy Corvette has a fascinating tale behind it. Initially ordered by a U.S soldier that was stationed overseas in Korea, he had mainly intended for it to be more powerful – and lighter.
The car has a V-8 engine under the hood and pumps out 270 horsepower, but instead of the 3-speed, it’s got a 283-cubic inch small block. Leno typically uses the car to cruise around his California neighborhood.
Bentley GJ 400
Jay Leno has some incredibly impressive (and large) vehicles in his garage, and this 1930 Bentley GJ is no exception. With the work, the comedian has had done to the car. However, it isn’t so much in its classic form these days, but rather a custom modern that has vintage aesthetics.
Still, the 27-liter Rolls Royce Merlin V12 engine, built for WWII planes, is a beast, and the car can reach between 650-700 horsepower.
