The Cunningham automobiles were some of the very first in existence, in making the switch from horse-drawn carriages to gasoline engine cars. They began production back in 1908.
At the time, Cunningham sold their cars for around $4,000 – which was incredibly expensive for the period. Leno has one of the maker’s later models, a C3, which was initially built-in 1953. That same year, a Cunningham won first place in class in the Le Mans race.
Chrysler 300G
The Chrysler 300G has been dubbed several things by car enthusiasts everywhere: the gentleman’s sports car, banker’s hotrod, and the original batmobile are among a few of them. The 300 series went into production in the mid-'50s, and the 300G came after a long line of other 300-somethings.
By that point, they’d seem to have perfected the model, and Leno knew he had to have one. His is 1961, which was the last year anything like it appeared to hit the market. The car comes equipped with a 4.13-liter engine that gets up to 375 horsepower.
Corvette C6RS
This sleek sports car is essentially the street-legal version of its predecessor, the C6.R racecar. It was born out of the creator’s desire to create the ultimate Corvette, and according to a lot of people, they got it right. Under the hood sits an 8.2-liter engine that pumps out 650-lb ft of torque and a whopping 600 hp.
The C6RS is one of the first designed by the brand for the road capable of hitting top speeds of over 200 mph. The entertainer is lucky enough to own one of the only seven ever made.
Blastolene Special Twin Turbo
The Blastolene Special was made using an engine from an actual U.S military tank, hence the nickname “Tank Car.” It weighs a whopping 9,500 pounds and has a unique aluminum body. After Jay bought the 2001 car a couple of years after it was designed, he made several upgrades and adjustments to it, which included installing a six-speed automatic gearbox.
The car, which gets just 5 miles to the gallon, can be seen in the game "Gran Turismo 4," where it apparently ended up “on accident,” and is referred to as the “Jay Leno Tank Car.”
1928 Bugatti Type 37A
Another one of Leno’s half a dozen Bugattis is this 1928 Type 37A, which is worth nearly $3 million, despite its original price of around $1,000. But this particular Bugatti comes with a unique backstory, like many other cars in the entertainer’s collection. This car was at one point owned by racecar driver Pierre Veyron.
In its heyday, the supercharged vehicle could get up to 122 mph, though Leno says he’s only seen it run up to 117, maximum, which likely has a lot to do with the fact he kept it in its original state.
