Californian businessman David Lee has one of the most impressive Ferrari collections out there, and arranges his incredible haul by color: ketchup, mustard, and relish.
The Ferrari superfan’s collection includes a Ferrari Enzo, a F40, a F50, and even a super–rare former Formula One racecar.
He estimates he’s spent around $40 million on his packed-out garage.
But says today the cars are worth more than $100 million.

The Ferrari Big Five and plenty more besides
We’ve seen some eye-popping car collections, like Jay Leno’s, which is stuffed with almost 200 vehicles, or this wild $35 million one that would make any gearhead envious.
However, even by those impressive standards, this collection belonging to David Lee is a little bit special, filled with cars from throughout the marque’s long history.
Lee refers to his cars as the ketchup, mustard, and relish collection, with each condiment representing a different color.
Ketchup is the classic Rosso Corsa red, mustard is the Giallo Modena yellow, and his relish vehicles are the ones finished in a custom shade of green and include his 812 Competizione Aperta and SF90 XX Aperta.
The collection has cars dating from the 1960s right through to the present day, meaning you’ll see classics like the 275 GTB and the 330 GTS with the much more modern Daytona SP3.
He’s also the proud owner of the Ferrari Big Five: the 288 GTO, the F40, the F50, the LaFerrari, and the Enzo.
Lee’s Big Five is part of his mustard collection, meaning each one is finished in bright and bold Giallo Modena yellow.
“I think it’s the first time we have seen them all in yellow in one place,” he said in a video shared to his Ferrari Collector David Lee YouTube channel last year.
However, his collection is so vast that he even has some models in both ketchup and mustard.
He also owns an F1 car that belonged to Michael Schumacher
Even amongst the huge collection of stunning supercars and iconic models, one car does stand out: Michael Schumacher’s F2002 Formula One race car – a car that has won world championships.
In a video shared to his channel, Lee explained that to be offered some of the rarer and more prestigious cars, you need to prove yourself to the luxury marque.
He went on to reveal that once you hit a particular level of loyalty with the automaker, they will even occasionally offer you old F1 cars, which is how he got his hands on Schumacher’s old vehicle.
