21-year-old gets Ferrari 599 GTO
Dhiaa Al-Essa is a twenty-one-year-old Saudi student. He likes hats. As you can see from the picture above, he also likes Ferraris. That black and red one on the right is a Ferrari 599 GTO, delivered via the lucrative and all-too prevalent medium of Middle Eastern Taste Vacuum.
Al-Essa is an engineering student with a penchant for inaccessible high-end machinery. Inaccessible to the likes of the great unwashed, that is. His incredible supercar collection now spans 33 cars worth over $5 million, including his most recent acquisitions, the black and red GTO, and a yellow F430 Scuderia 16M (number 499 of 499, no less).

"I have had to wait six months for the GTO to arrive", Al-Essa pines. A painful passage of time, considering he only has 30-odd supercars to console himself with.
Still, it's his 22nd birthday soon. And when that revered milestone arrives, he will take delivery of a Ferrari SHOUTY NAME (the one which has sold out immediately), and a Koenigsegg Agera.

Next to no-one in Australia has such a car collection, but some unknown kid in Asia does. What gives???
