Upon selling his company Zip2 for an astonishing $307 million U.S. dollars in 1999, Elon Musk has embarked on a number of hugely successful business ventures and was named as one of the 75 most influential people of the 21st century by Esquire. With companies such as SpaceX and Tesla Motors under his belt, Musk is a truly remarkable entrepreneur, engineer, and inventor who has continued to thrive and contribute despite his fortune. So with such an expanse of wealth to his name, it must be hard deciding what to spend it on. In this case, we see footage of a young Elon Musk awaiting the delivery of a prized, 2-door coupé McLaren F1 sports car.
