This LA warehouse is a petrolhead’s dream as it’s filled with exotic cars, averaging $200,000 each.

Owned by Copart, who host salvage car auctions, this site is Heaven for anyone who likes being around cars.

With Lamborghinis, Ferraris, and Rolls-Royces galore, there’s plenty to feast your eyes on.

And the YouTube channel ScrapLife Garage was lucky enough to take a walk-through.

Paying a visit to Copart’s best-kept secret

The warehouse plays host to a ton of cool cars, all in varying states of damage.

A Lamborghini Huracán STO is worth $576,000 and is missing some parts – including one of the headlights.

This allows the host to take a peek on the inside, so every cloud has its silver lining.

The car doesn’t look bad on the whole, that is until you get to see it from behind.

A piece of tape is running up the side of the rear bumper, implying it was hanging off at one point.

“If you can get away with getting this car and only repairing the sides of the bumper, I’d call that a massive W [Win],” the YouTuber told his subscribers.

Other cars on the lot included a McLaren MP4-12C and a severely wrecked McLaren 570S.

How badly damaged are some of these exotic cars in the LA warehouse?

Considering that many of these cars have been involved in crashes, some of them aren’t looking too bad.

But maybe we’ve just seen too many wrecked cars over the years – like this Maserati MC20 that ended up going for $84,500 at auction.

Or the 18-year-old who bought a wrecked Tesla Model 3 but uncovered a shocking hidden feature when moving it out of the garage.

Even this wrecked Lamborghini a YouTuber recently bought for his girlfriend that is now ‘undrivable’.

In the Copart warehouse, some cars look like they could be fixed up in one afternoon by a capable mechanic.

While others appear to have been severely burnt.

When it comes time to auction, some gifted bidders will have to put their skills to the test to get some of these rides back into gear.
