When almost 3,000 petrol-electric horsepower share the same room, as it happens in the pic above, you know you've entered the twilight zone of the hybrid transportation world.
Some say the garage you see here has determined thousands of Toyota Prius units to join forces and establish a green vehicle army that aims to obliterate the supercar-hypercar breed.
We're not so sure about that, but we can explain that the 349 hp BMW i8, the 950 hp Ferrari Laferrari, the 903 hp McLaren P1 and the 887 hp Porsche 918 Spyder you see here are just the tip of an iceberg that goes by the simple name of "Michael Fux's car collection".
In case you've never heard of Fux and his automotive realm, you're a happy person, since his collection spreads to such an extent that it has the power to disturb - you could be left contemplating the man's rides for an undetermined amount of time.
Talking about these exotics in such hefty quantities mustn't trick you into believing Fux makes due with... regular supercars and lavish rides. Oh no. For instance, he is part of Ferrari's customer racing program (thanks to an FXX), while the BMW i8 you see above was one of the first to be delivered to America. Heck, there's even a shade of Candy Apple Red that Rolls-Royce named after him.
All these automotive creations are nested at the businessman's home in Milford, N.J. Forget the compact frame above above, the location was baptized Horse Power Farm and includes a 30,000 sq ft (2,790 sq m) garage.
Fux was 15 at the time and was determined to make his way up. He would jump from one industry to another, automotive included, playing both employee and entrepreneur role. Many know him as the man behind the Sleep Innovation bedding goodies, but this is of lesser importance - anything life throws at Fux, he turns into profit.

The goodies in Fux's jewel case
Fux, a 71-year old businessman who lives in the US and owns around 130 vehicles (some even claim 150), with the Prancing Horse being the leading brand in his stable. Porsches? He has about a dozen, an amount that is matched by that which describes his Aston Martins.Talking about these exotics in such hefty quantities mustn't trick you into believing Fux makes due with... regular supercars and lavish rides.

The man started out with... nothing
When seeing the millionaire surrounded by so many pieces of precious metal (or carbon fiber, for that matter), it may be difficult to imagine how different his childhood was, at least in terms of automobiles. Fux was born in Cuba, where he lived under financial stress until his family decided to immigrate to the US back in 1958.Fux was 15 at the time and was determined to make his way up. He would jump from one industry to another, automotive included, playing both employee and entrepreneur role.
