10 Celebrities With Impeccable Taste In Cars

Celebrities’ car collections, especially if the celebrity in question is known to be a dedicated car enthusiast, offer a fascinating insight into their automotive preferences. There are those who prefer to spend their millions on classics, and those whose garage contains cars like Lady Gaga’s Lamborghini Huracán – a seemingly typical supercar choice for a celebrity.

But some of the left-field choices listed here you might not expect to see. In this article, we have put together a selection of famous names who are best known for achievements outside of the automotive world, but also have an impressive garage to their name. You might already know some of their collections, but others may surprise you.

1

Rowan Atkinson

The British actor of Mr. Bean fame is also known for his love of all things cars; while his public image is most frequently associated with the classic Mini driven by said character, Atkinson’s collection has included a wide variety of models, from SUVs to classic sports cars.

Some of the cars that have earned a place in his garage over the years include a Jaguar Mark VII (which he has raced several times and won multiple trophies with), an Aston Martin V8 Zagato, the original Honda NSX, and the legendary Lancia Delta HF Integrale, which he bought and sold numerous examples of over the years. The latest one, a 1993 HF Integrale Evo II, was sold at auction in 2023. He was also responsible for one of the biggest insurance claims ever after he crashed his McLaren F1. Twice.

Lady Gaga

Next up is iconic singer Lady Gaga. When she’s not on stage or in the studio, she loves to drive one of the several cars that make up her collection. Over the course of her glittering career, she has been spotted at the wheel of a variety of vehicles, like a classic Ford Bronco, a Lamborghini Huracán, and a Chevrolet El Camino.

Gaga’s collection leans heavily towards classics: she has also owned a Mercedes W123 – famous for being one of the most reliable models produced by the German brand – and a Chevrolet Nova SS from the 1970s. Both these cars, alongside the vintage Bronco, are finished in a light blue paint job, which has become a recurring aesthetic feature of Gaga’s car collection.

Gordon Ramsay

One of the most well-known celebrity chefs in the world, Gordon Ramsay is famous not just for his skill in the kitchen, but also for his TV shows such as Kitchen Nightmares and Hell’s Kitchen, which introduced his trademark colorful personality to the world. However, when he’s not appearing on the small screen or cooking up a storm, he is likely to be found in the garage, spending time on his other passion: cars. More specifically, Ferraris.

Ramsay is a true Prancing Horse aficionado; at least 12 Ferraris have been part of his collection over the years, including a LaFerrari (and its open-top version, LaFerrari Aperta), a 458 Italia, and a Monza SP2. However, it’s not all Ferraris in the Ramsay garage: he also owns several cars from other high-end automakers (among these, a McLaren Senna and an Aston Martin DBS Superleggera). He was also at the launch of the RB17 with CarBuzz and wondered how the (expletive deleted) he was going to fit in there. So we’re guessing he’s getting one of those, too.

Kylie Jenner

Famous for being famous? That she may be, but reality T.V. star/influencer/beauty guru Kylie Jenner also happens to be a dedicated car collector. Her garage includes a variety of ultra-high-end cars, such as a Bugatti Chiron, a Lamborghini Aventador, and a Ferrari LaFerrari Aperta.

Jenner seems particularly fond of SUVs: a Rolls-Royce Cullinan, a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen, a Range Rover Autobiography and a Lamborghini Urus can all be found in her collection. Her trademark style is sometimes reflected in her choice of vehicles as well: another Rolls-Royce in her garage, a Wraith, sports a custom bright pink finish and pink interior.

5

Billie Eilish

Singer and songwriter Billie Eilish has become a household name in recent years, with three albums and several hit singles to her name. Despite being a member of Gen Z, which doesn’t have a reputation for being crazy about cars, she seems to be quite the gearhead.

Among the many cars that make up her collection, we can find a McLaren 600LT, a Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, and even a Koenigsegg Agera RS. Eilish is also a fan of high-end SUVs, owning both a Range Rover Sport and a Chevrolet Suburban.

6

Ralph Lauren

Fashion designer Ralph Lauren, founder of the legendary brand that bears his name, is also the proud owner of an incredible car collection, which is constantly being updated as cars get bought and sold. His very first car was a Morgan, which ended up being sold shortly afterward, as he struggled to keep up with repairs; he was, however, undeterred in his love of all things automotive.

As his success grew and grew, he started building a garage which has gone on to include legendary classics such as the Ferrari 250 GTO and the Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic. Lauren also owns three McLaren F1s, two of which are rare variants: an Ameritech model and an LM (“Le Mans”) edition, both from 1996.

7

John Cena

A legend of the wrestling world, John Cena has also built a multifaceted career as an actor, TV show host, and rapper. What many people don’t know, however, is that he is also a dedicated car collector. Over the years, his garage has included several examples of classic American muscle, such as the Plymouth Superbird and the Buick GSX; the oldest vehicle in the collection, though, is a British sports car – a 1969 MGC GT.

There is even a personalized car named after its owner: the InCENArator, a highly modified Corvette with custom bodywork. Cena’s daily driver is, however, something far more accessible to us mere mortals: a Honda Civic Type R, of which he has owned several examples over the years.

8

Jay-Z

Rapper and record producer Shawn Corey Carter, known by his stage name Jay-Z, is one of the most well-known hip-hop artists around the world, as well as the husband of international megastar Beyoncé. The first hip-hop artist to officially become a billionaire as of 2019.

His car collection includes cars such as the Pagani Zonda F, Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, and two classic C1 Corvettes (a 1957 and a 1962 model). In 2021, Jay-Z and Beyonce also bought one of the most expensive new cars on the market: the Rolls-Royce Boat Tail, an elaborate coachbuilt creation with a price tag of $28 million.

9

Jerry Seinfeld

Comedian, actor and writer Jerry Seinfeld, best known for playing a partially fictionalized version of himself in the sitcom that bears his name, is also a dedicated car enthusiast, with a collection that includes over 150 vehicles. The nature of the collection is extremely varied, with every kind of car from classics to muscle cars to modern sports cars and everything in between.

Among the countless different cars in the Seinfeld garage, we can find a Lamborghini Miura, a BMW Isetta, and a Cadillac Eldorado Seville. A large part of the collection is also dedicated to Porsches: Seinfeld owns around 40 cars from the Stuttgart-based brand, making his Porsche collection one of the most valuable on earth.

10

Kevin Hart

Comedian and four-time Emmy nominee Kevin Hart has built a large collection of cars over the course of his glittering career. Ferrari is one of his favorite brands, with several of the Prancing Horse’s models earning themselves a place in his garage: these include a 488 GTB Red, 488 Spider Black, 458 Spider, and 488 Pista.

While the collection leans heavily towards Italian cars, there is a sprinkle of British motoring in there as well: Hart’s garage also features an Aston Martin Vanquish, from the second generation of the V12-powered grand tourer. There are several SUVs in Hart’s collection as well, including a GMC Yukon XL Denali, a Jeep Wrangler, and a Mercedes-Benz AMG G 65.
