Manny Khoshbin’s Car Collection
- Bugatti Chiron habillé par Hermès
This chalk white-colored car represents a whole new level of luxury! Manny Khoshbin’s love for Bugatti runs deep, making it his favorite automotive brand. ‘I am a true Bugatti aficionado – I wanted to name my son “Ettore” but my wife disagreed,’ explains Mr. Khoshbin. The Bugatti Chiron habillé par Hermès revives the relationship between two exceptional French brands, whose owners Ettore Bugatti and Émile-Maurice Hermès laid the foundation for Manny’s dream car. It is an ultimate hypercar, boasting the perfect exterior color and a unique interior, with a worth of $4 million. Mr. Khoshbin chose the optional ‘Sky View’ glass roof, adding two fixed glass panels above the driver and passenger seats. The interior resembles a luxurious room and a work of art. It comes with 10 radiators that circulate over 800 liters of coolant every minute and 371 liters every second. Weighing 4500 Pounds, it accelerates from 0 to 124 miles per hour in 6.5 seconds with a top speed of 420 Kilometers per hour. Isn’t this impressive? What’s even more interesting is that it has the largest clutch of any car ever made. He even has a matching Bugatti watch to twin with his car. Believe it or not, but what’s even more shocking is that apart from the car, even his watch has a W16 engine. All these features make this car timeless and precious, the greatest human masterpiece, elevating it beyond just a hypercar.
- Pagani Huayra Hermes Edition
The world’s first Hermes-edition Pagani is worth an eye-watering $3.4 million. Demonstrating the high degree of personalization afforded to hypercar buyers, the owner of this Pagani Huayra collaborated with the French luxury fashion house Hermès to develop a unique design for the vehicle. Everything was redesigned, from the seats to the dash, to the center console, and the doors, specifically for the real estate tycoon. The Pagani Huayra Hermes Edition is powered by a turbocharged 6.0-liter Mercedes-AMG V-12 engine, packing over 700 horsepower. This beast can hit a top speed of 230 miles per hour, and it can go from 0 to 62 miles per hour in just 2.8 seconds. Did you know that every grille on the car was also laser-cut to resemble the Hermès emblem? Even the key of this car is extraordinary and detailed. ‘Everything you see inside the car was handmade by Hermès in Paris, including every piece of leather you see on the trunk, the gearshift, and the seats,’ Khoshbin mentioned. From its handcrafted details to its breathtaking design, every element of the Pagani Huayra Hermes Edition is crafted to perfection.
- Hermès McLaren Speedtail
Khoshbin doesn’t disappoint; he’s always arranging collaborations between different car brands. With two Hermès vehicles already in his collection – including a Pagani Huayra and Bugatti Chiron – Khoshbin welcomed the Hermès McLaren Speedtail, built by two prestigious car brands of the world: McLaren and Hermès, into his garage three years ago. Khoshbin can proudly say that there is only one in the world. Capable of reaching 250 mph (402 km/h), it aimed to be the unofficial successor to the McLaren F1 of the 1990s. Hermès sent Khoshbin a caramel-colored leather key holder, along with matching driving gloves. Instead of wing mirrors, the Speedtail uses cameras and features a twin-turbocharged 746 horsepower 4.0-liter V8 engine that zips from zero to 60 mph in 2.9 seconds. While it may not claim the title of the fastest car in the world, there’s little debate that it stands out as one of the most aesthetically pleasing automobiles around.

Manny Khoshbin is addicted to McLaren SLRs, and this addiction has led him to own a total of eight of them, putting him in a position where he can now influence the market value of the SLR to some extent. The Mercedes-McLaren SLR project started in 2003 after both brands dominated F1. It was inspired by the 1950s 300 SLR car, now the most expensive ever sold. With a 5.5-liter supercharged V8 engine developed by AMG, it packed 617 horsepower and a 5-speed automatic transmission. It could go from 0 to 60 mph in 3.6 seconds and had a top speed of 208 mph. Despite being more like a grand tourer, it was one of the fastest cars of its time. Used SLR McLarens now sell for $310,000 to $890,000, showing a good investment for real estate mogul Manny Khoshbin.

Priced at around $500,000, the Ford GT Heritage Edition is a rare gem desired by enthusiasts for its blend of dramatic design and incredible speed. While some fans of classic American muscle cars might wish the Ford GT had the traditional big 8 or 10-cylinder engine, the GT’s twin-turbo V6 has an impressive racing background, having won big races like the 24 Hours of Le Mans. And let me tell you, when you hear the sound of its exhaust, it’s so powerful and thrilling, it could wake up anyone who’s fast asleep! Khoshbin’s 2021 Ford GT Heritage Edition features a twin-turbo 3.5-liter V6 delivering 660 horsepower and 745 Nm of torque, mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

This marks a significant milestone as it becomes the first car from the manufacturer to find a home in Khoshbin’s esteemed garage. This car features a unique pair of front-hinged butterfly doors with narrow letterbox windows. It is powered by a 6.5-liter V12 engine developed by Cosworth, producing 1,155 horsepower and revving to 11,100 rpm.
