Tavarish gives full tour of his $8,643,755 supercar collection and shares secrets about how he built it up

Freddy Hernandez has turned a career of rescuing wrecked exotic car builds into a multi-million dollar supercar collection defined by a custom McLaren 675LT and a current Cannonball record holder.

This Florida-based operation serves as a sanctuary for high-performance machinery that insurance companies previously deemed beyond mechanical salvation.

The inventory ranges from fire-damaged Italian exotics to highly specialized sedans built to cross the United States in just over a day.

These vehicles are far more than static displays, though the true extent of the modifications required to keep them on the road remains hidden beneath their pristine carbon fiber bodywork.

Inside this supercar collection

The supercar collection centers on a McLaren 675LT that has been heavily modified under the skin.

Tavarish finished one of his most difficult exotic car builds by swapping the standard 3.8 liter engine parts for a 4.0 liter setup.

This change uses the bottom end of a newer 720S to give the car more punch at lower speeds.

He also added a rare roof scoop that feeds air directly into the engine, just like the limited factory versions.

This project shows a move toward custom engineering rather than just fixing broken body panels.

The McLaren 675LT now produces 800 horsepower and serves as a main fixture in his garage.

The Audi S6 parked nearby is the actual car that set a new Cannonball record for driving across the United States.

It made the trip from New York to Los Angeles in 25 hours and 39 minutes by using a massive 45 gallon fuel tank.

The car is packed with gear like a thermal camera on the roof to spot police cars in the dark.

This build is a working example of how exotic car builds can be designed for a specific, high speed goal.

Tavarish and his team prepared the car in just a few days to catch a specific window of clear roads.

Holding a Cannonball record requires this level of redundant engineering and mechanical preparation.

Saving exotics from the scrapyard

A Ferrari 430 Scuderia in the supercar collection shows the owner’s habit of replacing automatic gearboxes with traditional sticks.

Tavarish performed a manual swap on the car, which was originally a wreck with a crushed front end.

He had to weld a new aluminum structure from a different car to make the Ferrari straight and safe again.

The car is painted in a Cadillac white rather than a standard Ferrari shade, making it stand out from typical collector cars.

These exotic car builds prove that it is possible to ignore factory rules to create a car that feels better to drive.

The supercar collection is set to grow as Tavarish expands into five different shop buildings to hold more parts.

He is currently working on a Porsche 911 GT3 that was once completely underwater and an Aston Martin DBS with a manual transmission.

These projects are part of a larger effort to prove that even cars declared a total loss can return to the street.

The work on the Cannonball record car and the various McLaren 675LT projects shows that the garage is moving toward even more complex mechanical challenges.

Tavarish continues to buy the cars for his supercar collection that other people are too afraid to touch.

His focus on high quality exotic car builds has turned a hobby into a multi million dollar fleet of resurrected speed.
