Are you a billionaire and are in the market for a new "house" (or whatever over-the-top monstrosity that is) located in Los Angeles that also includes some cool cars? Then check out this post from AutoBlog:
This $250 million house comes with its own car collection
http://www.autoblog.com/2017/01/19/250m-house-vehicle-collection/
America's most expensive house is currently on the market for $250 million, and it is truly a turn-key millionaire, or billionaire, set-up. According to CNBC, not only does the house come with a ridiculous number of rooms, space, and luxury amenities including a bowling alley and movie theater, but it's also already filled with furniture, art, and, yes, vehicles.

The news agency reports that 10 motorcycles and 12 cars are included with the property, as well as a helicopter – the latter from the 1980s adventure TV show Airwolf, no less. While the house's official website doesn't give a list of the vehicles included, CNBC notes at least one Rolls-Royce Dawn, a Ferrari 488, and two of the most expensive cars in the collection, a Pagani Huayra, and a 1936 Mercedes-Benz 540K. CNBC values the Pagani at $2 million and the Mercedes at $15 million, though that exact 540K last sold for $11,770,000 at Gooding & Company's 2012 Pebble Beach auction.

We did manage to spot most of the rest of the collection, thanks to the video above. In the gallery garage is a Spyker C8, Ariel Atom 3, and some type of Allard. Outside is another Rolls-Royce convertible, a Bentley Continental GT convertible, and of course a Bugatti Veyron. Considering the open roof, it must be a Grand Sport. We also noticed in some of the photos that there's a Morgan 3-Wheeler in with the Allard and Ariel, too.

By our count, we've managed to identify 10 of the 12 cars in the garage. We reached out to the home's developer for more details on the vehicles, and will update the post with any other information.

Read the article the other day; not only classic cars are included, but a plethora of collectibles of memorabilia from sports, movies and what have you.
By the way, that Airwolf-like Bell helicopter is decommissioned apparently.

Thing is, if one's had this colossal amount of money, wouldn't he/she prefer to have their own cars and things?

Exactly, someone who has this amount of wealth will not buy some else's 'things'... unless possibly if their time is scarce, or can't wait to build something on their own image.

Ok this thread was better than I expected, I thought from the title you'd photographed a Porsche 924 at Bel Air Rd. California and was about to say that's saddest Porsche ever.

Have to say, it's quite a place. I did like the over-sized safe, which I can only assume is for the watch collection

Updated the title to be more descriptive of the content.

Yes, I was curious about that too.
