23 Celebrity Car Collections You Need To See To Believe


50 Cent Rolls-Royce

Most of the celebrities that we know of today are so rich that they don’t know what to do with all the money they earned in their career. Some of the richest people that currently exist are either rappers, YouTube personalities, actors, football players, TV show hosts, and surprisingly, comedians. These people are loved by practically everyone, and with so much money in their hands, they try to invest it in something that they love and cherish, and that something is often cars.

Updated May 2022: Car prices are going through the roof and the used market seems as volatile as ever, but some celebrities’ car collections continue to grow with new each year. We’ve updated this list with even more celebrities whose garages are lined with some of the rarest and most mindbogglingly expensive cars on the planet.

If you ask men to pick from either getting their leg chopped off or seeing someone destroy their million-dollar car, I’m pretty sure we’ll see some guys hopping on one leg. The purpose of this crude analogy is to demonstrate how much we love cars and how we can’t get enough of them. The collection that we’ve compiled below is based on the same kind of people we’ve mentioned above. The collection of cars they have is so impressive that we were quite surprised by some of them.

The collection below has a lot of variety, ranging from people who buy these cars to show off to other celebrities or for the paparazzi, or they buy these cars because of their aesthetics or the history behind them, OR they just buy them just because they can. So sit back, relax, get some popcorn, and enjoy the list.

23 Lady Gaga

Ford F-150 Lady Gagavia Gaga Daily

Let’s kick off this list with something quite unexpected. There’s a huge stigma behind female car enthusiasts, and that they don’t exist, but we think that’s the most absurd stereotype ever – look at Lady Gaga for example. As you all know, Lady Gaga is a renowned musician and actor known for her crazy outfits back in the day, but she truly has a passion for metal, and she has some of the coolest cars anyone could ever dream of having. Her collection consists of somewhat affordable rides like her Mercedes-Benz W123 and a ’70 El Camino, but also some lesser cheap ones like an Audi R8, and our personal favorite, a Ford F-150 SVT Lightning.

22 Manny Khosbin

So for anyone outside the YouTube car scene, the name Manny Khosbin might sound unfamiliar, so let’s bring you up to speed. Manny is a real estate mogul who has a very exquisite, very expensive taste in cars, take for instance his specially designed Hermès-designed Bugatti Chiron, as well as his Hermès-designed Pagani Huyara, as you can see. He also owns quite a couple of Mercedes SLR McLarens in his arsenal, and daily drives a Rolls-Royce – what a life that sounds like. Oh, and he has a McLaren Speedtail too, which is of course, also specially designed by you guessed it, Hermès.

Let’s admit it: if you’re not a car nerd, and you’re not from Brunei, you’ll hardly know who this is. But we think he deserves to have his name on the list since he’s the richest of the known royalties, and he owns the largest car collection in the world. He’s so rich that once, Obama told him to go shopping in the US so that the economy would receive a boost of income. His car collection consists of nearly 7,000 cars! He owns close to 300 Ferraris, 11 McLaren F1s, and 600 Rolls-Royces! At this point, everyone is envious of this sultan. If he could sell all the cars in his collection, it would give him close to $300,000,000!!
