Tunku Ismail, the Crown Prince of Johor, possesses Malaysia's most extensive car collection. His garage encompasses a diverse array of vehicles ranging from classic vintage cars to the latest supercars, including rare specimens such as the Koenigsegg Jesko Attack (limited to 125 units globally), a purple Ferrari LaFerrari, and the Mercedes-AMG Project ONE. His collection is distinguished by uniform "TMJ" license plates, with select pieces occasionally displayed to the public through private exhibitions, showcasing his profound passion for automotive culture. By comparison, while Kuala Lumpur entrepreneur Datuk Seri Mahadi Badrul Zaman gained attention for his modified Jaguar adorned with 4,600 Hot Wheels toy cars, his collection pales in scale to that of the royal family. It should be noted that although Brunei's Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah maintains a premier collection featuring bespoke Aston Martins, his status as a member of Brunei's royal family places him outside the realm of Malaysian collectors. Tunku Ismail's assemblage not only boasts impressive volume but also emphasizes the historical significance and technical distinctiveness of each model. For instance, the Koenigsegg Jesko Attack, with its full carbon-fiber chassis and track-optimized rear wing design, exemplifies his dedication to automotive engineering aesthetics.
