To maintain the appearance of success and riches, keeping a garage full of pricey exotic cars is an essential aspect of “celebrity life.” Sports stars, artists, actors, fashion designers, and other members of the glitterati have enough money saved up to support an opulent lifestyle, and some of them have invested their hard-earned money into amassing seriously awesome automobile collections.
A “vehicle collection” is what, then? Basically, you have a car collection if you own three or more noteworthy vehicles, whether they are rare, expensive, or have some other significant pedigree.
Ralph Lauren: Lauren’s collection reportedly contains some of the most sought-after vintage Ferraris ever produced, such as a 250 GTO (the most costly car ever constructed), a ’58 250 Testa Rossa, a 250 SWB, a 375 Plus, and a 250 LM. There are several extremely rare pre-World War 2 Alfa Romeos, Bentleys, Bugattis, and Mercedes models, as well as historic Jaguars including a Le Mans-winning D-Type racer and its XK SS road-going counterpart. But out of all the vehicles Lauren has, his 1938 Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic, one of just two ever produced, is the most coveted and technologically advanced supercar of its day.
Paul Walker: Through his appearances in several Fast & Furious films, Paul Walker throughout his brief time on earth inspired a whole new generation of auto enthusiasts. In addition to several pick-up trucks and motorcycles, his collection of rare modified Japanese tuner legends also included the Nissan R34 GT-R Skyline, five extremely rare BMW E36 M3 Lightweights, a number of limited-edition E30 BMW M3s, a modified ’63 Chevy Nova wagon, a modified ’67 Nova coupe, an R32 GT-R Skyline racer, a tuner modified Nissan 370Z, and a number of modified ’63 Chevy Novas Hardcore car enthusiasts recognized Walker had a connoisseur’s collection of vehicles, despite the fact that these vehicles were considerably less expensive than one of Floyd Mayweather’s Bugattis.
Rowan Atkinson: Rowan Atkinson, best known for his comedic roles in Mr. Bean and Blackadder, is an avid automobile enthusiast who enjoys racing rare classics like Aston Martin DB4, 1960s Ford Falcon Sprint, and a Jaguar MkVII in his own time. In addition, he has possessed a McLaren F1, numerous exotic Bentleys and Rolls-Royces, and more Aston Martins than James Bond. The 1939 BMW 328 Roadster, which won the Mille Miglia open-road race and is presently valued at over US$1 million, is the most valuable and noteworthy vehicle in Atkinson’s collection.
