How awesome would it be to have one of these?

Hundreds of personal effects belonging to Steve McQueen, the charismatic actor who became a Hollywood legend with Bullitt, The Great Escape and The Magnificent Seven, are to go under the hammer.

The items, which have never been exhibited or offered for sale before, will be auctioned in Los Angeles on November 11. They include three of his motorcycles, an ornate 1920s petrol pump that sat in his living room, and the famous Persol foldaway tinted-blue sunglasses from The Thomas Crown Affair.

What we have here is a failure to communicate....just how cool is would be to have McQueen's bike(s)! Ok, that was bad. But you know what I mean.
