How a refugee went from living in his Toyota to amassing a high-end car collection
View Date:2025-01-07 13:45:24
Nashville, Tennessee-area businessman Sammy Poori has amassed a multi-million-dollar car collection full of all the big names: Porsche, Lamborghini, Bugatti, Pagani and Ferrari.
His story started, however, with a 1989 Toyota — that he lived in.
When Poori and his wife, Ana, roll up to an event in their canary yellow Bugatti sports car, it might be easy to jump to conclusions or make assumptions about their past. But after spending time with the Pooris and their children, Arteen, 14 and Hujin, 21, we can tell you that most of those assumptions would be wrong.
