Elon Musk’s McLaren F1 was made famous back in December 1999. At the time, the 28-year old sought to purchase a set of wheels that perfectly symbolised his burgeoning dot-com success.

Elon Musk crashed his McLaren F1 in 2000 while taking fellow PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel on a joyride. Musk bought the fastest production car in the world at the time for $1 million in 1999.
