The mystery behind a $50 million fleet of supercars and hypercars seen at LAX remains unsolved.
Los Angeles International Airport can be called many things — but a parking lot for ultra-expensive cars is not one of them. Still, that assumption was challenged a few years ago when a blogger stumbled upon an unusual sight: a group of vehicles sitting behind a fence in a remote corner of the airport grounds. And these were no ordinary cars.
The lineup reportedly included at least a dozen supercars and hypercars — vehicles whose names alone can leave even the world’s wealthiest collectors in awe. Each car was covered with a thin plastic wrap, almost as if it were checked luggage waiting for a flight.
Photos of the surreal scene quickly went viral. And it’s easy to see why. The collection featured some of the most legendary and rare performance cars ever built, including a McLaren Sabre, Porsche 918 Spyder, and McLaren Speedtail. Parked alongside them were equally iconic machines such as the Pagani Huayra BC, Lamborghini Centenario, Ferrari LaFerrari, and Bugatti Chiron.
And that wasn’t the end of it. The mysterious fleet also included a Ford GT, an Aston Martin One-77, a modified Gunther Werks Porsche 911, and even two Koenigseggs — a Regera and an Agera RS.
Altogether, the estimated value of the collection could easily exceed $50 million.
How all of these cars ended up parked in such an unlikely location remains a mystery to this day. One theory suggests the vehicles were part of a private collection being shipped overseas. Another claims they were en route to a major international auto show.
There’s also speculation that the cars were destined for a highly secretive auction, known only to a select circle of elite collectors. Whatever the truth may be, the sighting remains one of the most bizarre and fascinating automotive mysteries in recent memory.
