Celebrities love spending money especially on lavish things such as luxury vehicles. Naturally, many of the cars they buy are ones that common people will never to be able to afford. Luckily we’re still able to see these amazing machines and dream that maybe one day these cars will park in our own garage. Some of the cars are amazing collectible vintage cars while still others are incredible sports cars that will race at speeds you won't believe. Take a look at these outrageously expensive cars and see which celebrity owns them.
Ferrari Enzo
First built in 2002, the Ferrari Enzo F140 had a limited production run of just 399, which it a popular choice for anyone who loves -- and can afford --- such sleek cars.
The price tag is high at $670,000, but you get incredible speed - the vehicle’s top speed is 218 mph and it can go 0 to 60 in just 2.5 seconds! The Enzo is named after the founder of Ferrari, Enzo Ferrari, and was so in demand that the manufacturer sold all 399 before production even began.
Mega Celeb Driver: Nicholas Cage
Nicholas Cage was one proud owner of this speed machine until he had to sell it to pay off outstanding debts, at a price many estimate to be $1 million.
The Enzo was among his prized possessions that had to be sold off because he owed back taxes and had made several bad investments.
Even today, however, Nicholas Cage’s name is still associated with the Enzo.
Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead
Rolls-Royce has always been one of the more elite car brands, and is often on top of a celeb’s wish list. The Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead hails from Britain, and has a nautically-inspired theme.
This luxury car is a 2-seater with suicide doors, and one of the coolest parts of the vehicle is its teak wood paneling. The car can reach a top speed of 149 mph and takes under 6 seconds to get from 0 to 60. In its year of release, 253 cars were sold internationally for $407,000 each.
Mega Celeb Driver: David Beckham
David Beckham considered his Phantom Drophead a family vehicle, and made it as custom as he could with Savini Forged wheels and his number, “23,” embroidered into the seats. The exterior trim was color matched with the rest of the vehicle as well. Not only that, he had customized child seats for his sons.
Who said you can’t have a cool car as a family man? With all of that customization, Beckham paid likely $420,000 or more for the vehicle.
1994 McLaren F1
This is one of the rarest cars in the industry, with just 106 produced during its run. The McLaren F1 can rocket up to 243 mph as its top speed, and has an intriguing design with the driver’s seat right in the middle, not on the left or right side of the vehicle like every other car model.
Until the Bugatti beat it in 2005, the McLaren F1 was the world’s fastest production car.
Mega Celeb Driver: Jay Leno
Jay Leno has a huge collection of cars, and even has a CNBC television show "Jay Leno’s Garage" devoted to his hobby. Leno paid $800,000 for the McLaren F1 and it’s now estimated to be worth $1 million making it the crown jewel of his collection.
Leno doesn’t see cars as investments, however, he just says he buys what he loves and restores cars to their original shape.
Lexus LFA
The Lexus LFA is a supercar featuring a base price of $375,000. Inside you’ll find a V10 engine, and it’s one of the most exclusive Lexus models, with only 500 were ever produced.
The cars were actually sold on a two-year lease program to limit reselling, and the participants in the program were chosen by Lexus, making it a very exclusive car to own.
It’s a fast one too, reaching top speeds of 203 mph and going 0 to 60 mph in just 3.7 seconds.
Mega Celeb Driver: Paris Hilton
Paris Hilton received a 2012 Lexus LFA as a gift for her 30th birthday, because that’s the type of gift that the uber-rich give each other for birthdays! Her boyfriend, Cy Waits, who owns a series of nightclubs bought it.
The car was yellow, but when she was done with that boyfriend, she swapped the car for a different LFA, this one in white.
The vehicle popped up on Hilton’s Instagram and she’s declared it her favorite car because it’s “sexy and fast.”
Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport
The Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport is the fastest road-legal car in the world, with a top speed of 268 mph,. It even made the Guinness Book of World Records!
The 0 to 60 is pretty astounding too, as it gets to that speed in just 2.46 seconds. This speed doesn’t come cheap, however, because the car is $1.7 to $2 million, depending on the package you select.
Mega Celeb Driver: Jay Z
When Beyonce gives gifts, she goes big. Beyonce gifted hubby Jay Z for his 41st birthday this white Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport setting her back $2 million. She was so keen on getting it for him she’d ordered it a year before, when it was still in production!
Jay Z is now one of the privileged few to own the supercar, since initially only 150 were produced.
1959 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II
This convertible was first introduced in 1959, and is a highly-prized vintage luxury car. Production was limited, since the Silver Cloud was intended to replace the Silver Dawn.
Upon arrival, the car boasted a 6.2 liter V8 engine, and could reach a top speed of 107 mph, a big feat back in those days.
A total of 2,417 were sold during the car’s production run, and it was the car for 60’s celebrities like Elvis, John Lennon and others to own.
Mega Celeb Driver: Beyonce
Jay Z gives as good as he gets when it comes to cars. He gifted Beyonce with a $1 million 1959 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II Convertible for her 25th birthday, and it’s one of the hottest cars you’ll ever see.
The vehicle features a blue leather interior while the facade is sky blue, and tires are wide white walls. Beyonce loves the color blue -- after all, their daughter’s name is Blue Ivy --- so this car was made for her. It’s fast too, going 0 to 60 mph in just 10.9 seconds.
Porsche 959
The Porsche 959 is a car you won’t likely see on the road, even in Hollywood, as just 337 were ever built. Introduced in 1986, the 959 is considered the world’s first supercar and was one of the first to have all-wheel drive.
When it debuted, the road version of the vehicle cost $225,000, though you’d be lucky to find one for that price today. The highly rare sports car features a twin-turbo six-cylinder boxer engine, and can soar up to a top speed of 195 mph.
Mega Celeb Driver: Jerry Seinfeld
The Seinfeld star is a big fan of vintage and classic cars, and tools around with celebrities in the web series Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. Seinfeld’s car collection is worth millions, and even though he sold off several recently, he kept his Porsche 959.
Although it debuted at $225,000, Seinfeld is rumored to have paid $700,000 for the car -- quite a difference over the years.
Ferrari Italia 458
The Ferrari Italia 458 debuted in 2009 with an impressive 0 to 60 seconds in 2.9 seconds. Sleek and designed for aerodynamics, the vehicle features deformable winglets that lower at high speeds.
The design was inspired by the Enzo, and was assembled in Maranello, Italy. The car is the first from the manufacturer to feature direct-fuel injection in a mid-engine car.
The Italia 458 was available for around $3 million.
Mega Celeb Driver: Justin Bieber
Justin Bieber may have been a teen idol but he’s got the car collection of a rapper / long-time performer.
Especially interesting is a custom-built Ferrari Italia 458. The car was wrapped in Frozen Blue chrome by West Coast Customs, then given a Liberty walk wide-body kit. Custom 20-inch Forgiato wheels, a 10-inch subwoofer, 7-speed automatic transmission, and 4.5-liter V engine are just some of the best parts of the car.
Bieber auctioned the car off in January 2017 and netted a cool $434,500 sale price. The sale was probably smart too as Justin got in trouble several times with the car.
Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder
The Lamborghini Gallardo, named after a famous breed of fighting bull, was the sales-champion for Lamborghini from 2003 until the last car rolled off the line in 2013.
The Gallardo had an uneven firing 5.2 L (320 cu in) V10 engine and was capable of going from 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.8 seconds, 0-200 km/h (120 mph) in 13.1 seconds, and cruising at a top speed of 324 km/h (201 mph).

Combs promised the child YouTube star that he would gift him a car for his 16th birthday. Shortly after buying his own Spyder, Combs used it to head out to the upscale Waverly Inn, where he met up with Lindsay Lohan and partook in a $55 bowl of mac-n-cheese. What a life.
Bugatti Veyron Sport
The Bugatti Veyron reaches speeds of up to 260 miles an hour and spins out on over 1,000 horse power, making it the ideal supercar for drivers who feel a need for speed. The Veyron was once the fastest-street legal production car in the world, bursting to a top speed of 431.072 km/h (268 mph).
The BBC program Top Gear named it the Car of the Decade and Best Car for the years 2000 through 2009.
Mega Celeb Driver: Simon Cowell
Simon Cowell is an impulse buyer with cars. On a visit to the Ellen DeGeneres show, Cowell explained he purchased the Veyron after a chat with a friend who recommended it.
The Veyron set him back more than $1 million dollars and he used it for an X Factor America commercial.
In the end though, Cowell admitted to only driving it twice before selling it at auction in 2014.
Dodge Challenger
For drivers who prefer a muscle car with a legacy, the Dodge Challenger will get you revved up. There have been four generations of the Challenger, stretching back to 1958. The fourth generation Challenger, the SRT8 debuted in the 2008 model year and promptly sold out during the pre-sale.
The affordable muscle car was equipped with a 6.1 L Hemi and a 5-speed Autostick transmission. The SRT8 hit top speed of 170 miles an hour and a fast 0 to 60 time of 4.6 seconds.

Mega Celeb Driver: Hugh Grant
Hugh Grant once told Top Gear he favored either “Tosser’s cars” or “wankers cars.” But if he had to pick just one brand, it would be Ferrari.

It also has a fast, 4.1 seconds 0 to 100 kmh (62 mph) covering a quarter-mile in 12.6 seconds at an average speed of 114 mph (183 km/h).

Mega Celeb Driver: Paul McCartney
Beatle Paul McCartney has a net worth of over $1 billion, but he favors the classics over the current generation of supercars. McCartney keeps a C6 Corvette at his Los Angeles home and is often seen driving it.
McCartney has kept loyal to his Corvette, owning one as far back as 2005 and continuing to drive it just like any other non-rock and roller. You have to admire that!
Aston Martin V8 Vantage Zagato
Zagato is an independent coachbuilder in Italy whose history goes back to the 1910s. The Aston Martin V8 Vantage Zagato is a racing concept powered with a default V12 engine with 510 horsepower. The previous version of the Aston Martin Zagato was a 1980s grand tourer.
That grand touring version packed a nice punch, with a 430 hp (321 kW) V8 engine with twin-choke Weber carburettors. The all-alloy car would hit speeds of 300 km/h (186 mph). When the car debuted, it cost a cool $156,000 but quickly soared to over $170,000 when bought second-hand.
It's worth way more now.
Mega Celeb Driver: Rowan Atkinson
Comedian Rowan Atkinson has a car collection to rival even the best celebrity gear-head. Best known as Mr. Bean, Atkinson has a $65 million fortune to spend on classic cars, racing cars, sports cars and supercars. His Aston Martin V8 Vantage Zagato is a revival of a model that started in the 1960s.
In 1998, before the racing version was released, Atkinson bought the very first right-hand drive Zagato produced and converted it to the Aston Martin Owners Club racing series C2 specification. The Tadek Marek 5.3 V8 engine was reworked to produce an estimated 482 bhp (359 kW; 489 PS).
Atkinson raced it until 2008. It seems strange to think of Mr. Bean racing, but clearly he is nothing like his character.
Bentley Continental GT
The Bentley Continental GT was designed to appeal to a slightly wider range of buyers while still maintaining the exclusivity that the brand is known for. The car has been a big hit, equipped with a 6.0 litre twin-turbocharged W12 engine producing a DIN-rated motive power output of 560 metric horsepower at 6,100 rpm.

You'd be looking at paying over $200,000 for this car.
Mega Celeb Driver: Serena Williams
Serena Williams is a fiery personality and perhaps the greatest woman tennis player who has ever lived. So it’s no surprise that her favorite car is powerful, refined and makes a big splash.

The body color is officially known as Umbrian Red.

It has a solar roof that adds another 6-8 km a week to the range. DiCaprio’s car sports an ‘Eco-Chic’ interior, which was made without the use of any animal product.

It was was the first highway legal serial production all-electric car which used lithium-ion battery cells. The Roadster was also the first production all-electric car which was able to travel over 200 miles (or 320 km) per charge.
The car was groundbreaking, but Tesla’s founder Elon Musk now says the car was a disaster, prone to breakdowns and fires. The model was overhauled in 2009. Prices for the Tesla Roadster started at over $100,000 so it's definitely too rich for many of us!
Mega Celeb Driver: Matt Damon
There was major interest in the Tesla Roadster but few people could get their hands on one. Matt Damon was an early tester of the Roadster prototype, driving around Los Angeles in a baby blue car.
The prototype still had a two-speed transmission with the lower gear disabled, which dampened the acceleration. However, when the car was already in motion, observers said the velocity increased like nothing else.
Hennessey Venom GT Spyder
