Niiiiiice collection. Fellow African here, from Ivory coast.

We have Hummers (converted to RHD as LHD is illegal here).
Illegal to have a LHD? Is your Ferrari RHD, are all your cars RHD?

$500K US dollars for a F430
Holy sh_!!
Did the dealers charge that much is it the Govt tax that is causing it to be so expensive? Wow , one can make tons of money there selling them for about 1/2 as much.

RUF is out of the question, who will do the maintenance in Africa?
That's been one of my worries about supercars in Africa.
I havent been back since 2000, the most supercar i seen in Ivory Coast was Mercedes SL's/CL's and Porsche 911 etc... I heard of some people owning Ferraris but i never seen one personally. I always wondered who would do the maintenance anyway for Lambos etc...?

Our speed limit is around 75mph. There have been lots of guys caught in the Lambo's going 160mph+ The highways are pretty smooth and flat in general.

Can't bribe the cops here I wish I could though. Would love to go 190mph

There is one exception. As you can see the car is registered in the UK. If a car is brought into the country under the condition that it is registered in another although it is a LHD. You can bring it it temporarily for 3 months(can vary) then the car needs to be shipped back for a certain amount of time befure you can re-apply for another permit.
