Rose’s ’78 Silver Shadow has been many things for the all-time hits leader, but practical is not one of them. In 2018, Rose admitted to owing the IRS upwards of $1 million, yet he continues to drive around in a $300,000 car.

17. Cristiano Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo is constantly mentioned in conversations about soccer’s GOAT.

Soccer accolades aside, Cristiano also holds the distinction of owning a one-of-one Bugatti.

A masterpiece of performance and design, the Bugatti La Voiture Noire has possibly the most luxurious interior ever designed. Anyone who has seen him play knows Ronaldo likes to move fast. Well, this car has 1500 hp and can reach speeds of more than 260 mph.

18. Andre Agassi

Make/Model: Vector W8
Production Year: 1990
Estimated Value: $450,000*
In the early ‘90s, Agassi was the “bad boy” of tennis. Some people considered him a rockstar stuck in a tennis player’s body. He had long hair (or did he?), movie star girlfriends, and showed off expensive and flashy things, like his nearly half-a-million-dollar car.

The Vector W8, featuring a 6.0L V8 engine, 700 horsepower, and a top speed of 195 mph, is one of the world’s fastest and most expensive cars and incredibly rare too! Only 19 W8s were produced.

19. Odelle Beckham Jr.

Make/Model: Mercedes-AMG-CLS 63
Production Year: Unknown
Estimated Value: $500,000*
Odelle Beckham Jr. is probably best known for his incredible one-handed catch a few years ago, but he has made waves for more than just his play on the field. Beckham Jr. has earned a few big checks in his day, and the proof is in the gift he’s gotten himself.

One of the cars Beckham has treated himself to is a Mercedes-AMG CLS 63. This isn’t your average Mercedes. It comes with a 4.7-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine and 577 horsepower. Oh yeah, and a price tag of half a million dollars.

20. Kobe Bryant

Make/Model: Ferrari 458 Italia
Production Year: 2012
Estimated Value: $329,000*
Kobe Bryant was a basketball legend! He won five NBA championships, two gold medals, an MVP, and the admiration of basketball fans worldwide during his 20-year career with the Lakers. Kobe wasn’t known for splurging on expensive things very often, but he bought himself something nice every so often.

Kobe Bryant @TOP CARS Manila/Facebook
In 2012, that something nice was a Ferrari 458 Italia. His Ferrari 458 Italia was certainly a fitting reward for all his hard work. The mid-engined sports car featured a 4.5-liter V8 engine and 562 hp. It could accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds and had a top speed of 202 mph.

21. LeBron James

Make/Model: Lamborghini Aventador
Production Year: 2013
Estimated Value: $670,000*
“King James” has done everything an NBA player could do. He’s won championships, MVP awards, and broken unbreakable records. LeBron has also created a sports empire that has helped him amass a net worth of $1 billion. With that much money, you better believe he’s bought himself a few new toys over the years.

LeBron James @yahoolifestyle/Pinterest
Anyone who loves cars and has the money to buy one is almost certain to buy a Lamborghini. LeBron James did, at least. A Lamborghini Aventador. This supercar’s V12 engine produces 740 horsepower, but you’d never know it, thanks to Lamborghini’s signature smooth handling. Only the best will do for (basketball) royalty.

For those wondering what ever happened to Bradshaw’s MVP Pontiac Firebird, rumor has it he traded it for a horse. As Jay Leno pointed out to Bradshaw when he heard the news, “it seems like he’s moving backward” trading a car for a horse.

The ’68 ‘Stang is a fan-favorite of Tatum’s. It gets a top speed of 105 miles per hour, and the 6.4L V8 under the hood is massively powerful, producing 325 horsepower. The ’68 Mustang isn’t cheap, with a value of $88,254, according to CarGurus. 

27. Jimmie Johnson

Make/Model: Trophy Truck
Production Year: 1995
Estimated Value: $250,000-$500,000*
We’d expect nothing less than an impressive car collection for Jimmie Johnson, as he’s a seven-time NASCAR champ. And we’d be right, as Johnson’s garage is everything we hoped for (and more).

Jimmie Johnson @Motoriousdotcom/Pinterest
Johnson owns a warehouse of cars, in which you can find, among others, a trophy truck from the Baja 1000. He crashed this truck during an infamous, near-fatal incident, but it was restored and re-raced. Johnson tracked the racer down and bought it back, applying all the same details and livery that it had when he was racing it.

28. Dwyane Wade

Make/Model: Audi Q8
Production Year: 2019
Estimated Value: $43,854*
At one point, Dwyane Wade owned sixteen flashy cars, including a Maybach worth nearly a quarter of a million dollars. Then, the NBA star got some financial advice that inspired him to sell all sixteen. Now, Wade just drives a “modest Audi Q8 around.”

Dwyane Wade @TheCollection/Facebook
Purchased in 2019, the Audi Q8 is anything but modest (though, when compared to some of Wade’s old cars, it might be). This sleek SUV was well-received by auto critics, thanks to its adaptiveness and sturdy build.

29. Tim Tebow

Make/Model: Ford Thunderbird
Production Year: 1995
Estimated Value: $2,429*
In 1995, Tim Tebow drove around a 1995 Ford Thunderbird, and, like most of us, he’s fond of his college-days car. So fond, in fact, that he and his foundation, the Tim Tebow Foundation, turned the old T-Bird into a race car.

Richard Petty, a racing legend, custom-built the new Thunderbird, putting it through a total restoration and modification. Though you can snag this Ford for under $3,000, it likely cost Tebow far more to restore it to its current, brightly-colored glory.

Make/Model: Ferrari 488 Pista Spider
Production Year: 2020

The Pista has attracted quite a few adrenaline junkies, including MLB star Albert Pujols. He added the Pista Spider to his impressive car collection in 2022. Shortly after that acquisition, Pujols added another stunner to his garage: a Porsche 911 GT3 RS Weissbach.
