One time Drake couldn't get this car started while Nikki Minaj was riding in the passenger seat. Talk about embarrassing.

It's considered a monument to pre-war Europe, and it won the Concorso d’Eleganze Villa d’Este.
One source said, "It’s a beautiful car, but not $40 million beautiful. Then again in that rarefied air, you’re not paying for value, but for exclusivity. Still, anyway I try to slice it, I can’t help but think that $40 million for a car is ridiculous."

Janet Jackson's Vanquish Doesn't Play Around
Janet Jackson's Aston Martin is a unique auto design that's worth an estimated $234,000. As you'd expect, Jackson's Vanquish is super-famous and celebrity worthy. It's the same vehicle constructed and used in the James Bond film Die Another Day. Janet owns three other luxury cars including a Lamborghini, Maserati, and a Bentley.
With an estimated net worth of $175 million, she's in good company as an owner of this spy-tastic vehicle. Missy Elliot, Ryan Seacrest, and Jennifer Lopez all own one too. Doesn't everyone want to drive a James Bond vehicle, particularly one that was driven by Pierce Brosnan?

Clint Eastwood's GMC Typhoon Is A Beast
In an interview with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show, Clint Eastwood revealed which vehicle he drives. Fallon guessed that he drove either a muscle car or a truck, and the answer was quite surprising. "I drive a Typhoon," Eastwood said. "A GMC Typhoon. It's actually a turbo V6, it's fast."

He first tried out the test model, which obviously affected his take on the car.
Damon said, "the 30-60 acceleration is like nothing else." Of course, he's not the only one who sports a Tesla. Other Tesla-owning celebrities include Ben Affleck, Cameron Diaz, Will Smith, and Leonardo DiCaprio. For those eco-conscious stars, it's just the right choice.
Britney Spears' SL 500 Is A Best Seller
Britney Spears always has a knack for being the center of attention, with controversy, love, and her penchant for expensive stuff. She's also adept at picking luxury vehicles, and the pop icon's favorite car is probably her Mercedes SL 500. The white convertible is one of the biggest-selling MB models of all time and reaches 60 mph in just four seconds!

Miley Cyrus Drives A White Maserati
Miley Cyrus doesn't play around when it comes to cars. Her 2014 white Maserati is worth an estimated $100,000. Miley hasn't had the best luck when it comes to her physical belongings.

A chauffeur was driving the model to a Vogue fashion shoot when he collided with another car at high speed and set the Rover on its side. Moss was airlifted to the hospital but was found to only have minor injuries. Looks like she's a Range Rover owner for life!

Photo: James Devaney/GC Images/Cameron Spencer/Getty Images
You didn't think Queen Bey would be the only member of her royal family to own a flashy car, did you? Her husband, Jay-Z, owns this Maybach Exelero. The rapper's Exelero is rumored to have cost him a ridiculous $8 million. But, then, it's also been featured in “Otis” by Kanye West and Jay Z, so it had to be just right. This hot car is a two-seater coupe.
You could reach speeds of up to 200mph if you were ever allowed to take a drive. Of course, the high price tag also means that he's in an exclusive club of owners. Few could afford it. His entire car collection has been valued at well over $15 million.
50 Cent's Lamborghini Is Flashy And Fun
Rapper Curtis James Jackson III, better known as 50 Cent, had a Lamborghini Aventador just like his fellow rapper, Kanye West, except that this Aventador is detailed in a cobalt-blue color wrap. 50 Cent reportedly paid $300,000 for his luxury vehicle. It's all been a blur, though.
Hot on the heels of losing a lawsuit in which Lavonia Leviston claimed that he intentionally leaked a sex tape, and a $5 million judgment, his lawyers filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2015. Before that filing, he appeared #15 on the list of "25 Biggest Car Collectors in Hip-Hop." The New York Times also did a profile on him, which said that he had "exceptional business instincts."

Photo: PG/Bauer-Griffin/GC Images

While most celebrities prefer their privacy behind tinted windows, Kimmel appears happy to talk and take photos with fans as he cruises Hollywood, top down. It looks like he's kept the original license plate from the 1970s as well.
Harry Styles' Epic Car Collection
Artist Harry Styles (formerly of One Direction) has a car collection beyond his 23 years of age. In fact, he owned most of his cars by the time he was 19! His car collection includes a 1970s classic white Ford Capri, Range Rover Sport, a Ferrari, vintage Jaguar E-Type, Audi R8 and more.
Most of his cars reside in the UK but he has a few in the U.S. as well. One of his cars, the Ford Capri, gathered dust in his shared parking garage where neighbors wrote unpleasant notes in the dust using their finger, making expletive comments about it needing a good wash.

Paris Hilton's Pink Bentley Is Very Paris Hilton
As it turns out, Nicki Minaj isn't the only celebrity riding around in a pink car. Paris Hilton owns a pink Bentley Continental that set her back around $220,000. The interior of the vehicle features pink-and-black leather seats and matching dashboard. The car was created specifically for Paris by West Coast Customs, but Bentley was not at all happy about the brand link-up.
While they were thrilled to promote when Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez bought their Bentley cars, Paris has been a center point for controversy. She's rich, sure. But, she's not classy (or at least, she doesn't represent the style of classy that Bentley is looking to promote).
Kevin Hart Appreciates Cars
Kevin Hart's car collection is nothing to scoff at. The comedian has posted many photos of his love of luxury cars on his Instagram account. The Ferrari 488 FTB costs around $250,000 and boasts 661 horsepower and 561 lb-ft of torque. It also reaches 60 mph in 3 seconds, and 100 mph in 6.
Other cars that Hart has been seen driving around include a 1966 Pontiac GTO, Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG with gull-wing doors, a Mercedes-Benz G-Class and a Ferrari 458 Spider that tops out at 202 mph. Needless to say, you'll lose a race against him.
JLaw Isn't Too Flashy
While some celebrities go big and flashy with their vehicles, actress Jennifer Lawrence keeps it simple driving her Volkswagen Eos. Although the car is no longer manufactured, it features a five-piece folding roof for a full sunroof effect and the only retractable hardtop.
It's clear Lawrence wants to save her money for things other than a luxury car, and with gas prices as high as they are in California, economy cars are the way to go! Plus it's less likely that she will be followed by photogs looking like the rest of us.
Jaden Smith Got A Tesla
On the opposite scale of JLaw, actor and artist Jaden Smith likes to show off his ride. The 19-year-old from Malibu purchased a $130,000 Tesla Model X with falcon-wing doors and is often spotted mobbing around Calabasas North of Los Angeles. His parents, Jada and Will appreciate flashy things as well, so it runs in the family.
Plus, being born and raised in LA makes it nearly impossible to avoid being drawn to pretty and expensive things. At only 19 this is just the start of Smith's car collection!
Beckham's Rolls Royce

Is anyone surprised that David Beckham's blacked-out Rolls Royce was as hot as he is? The Drophead Phantom is a customized piece of art with a bare-metal theme and 452-horsepower. Rolls Royce unveiled the Drophead in 2004, built to celebrate 100 years of the brand.
As you'd expect, the car has received rave reviews, inspired as it is by racing-yacht stylings. While it's ultra-luxurious and comfortable, it's also the perfect vehicle for celebs to use for everyday use. Yes, they do need to get around town. It was a one-of-a-kind car, but Beckham parted ways with the vehicle in 2012.
Kanye West's Car Is Full Of Drama
Does Kanye West ever do anything on a small scale? Of course not. You'd be shocked if he ever did anything in a small way, right. So, of course, you'd expect nothing less than for him to spend $750,000 on a Lamborghini. The vehicle is painted with a black-matte finish and is one out of 4,000 vehicles produced by the car company.
The latest reports put his net worth at $160 million, but he's also posted online begging for money to cover his $53 million in debt. He's always in the limelight, whether it be for his hot car, debt-ridden tour, or other drama.
