Jay Leno

Perhaps the first celebrity that comes to mind when considering car collections is one of the most famous chins in showbiz history, Jay Leno. Many know the comedian and talk show host for his vast collection of vehicles—he is truly the king of classic cars. Boasting an impressive 181 cars and 160 motorcycles in his “Big Dog Garage,” Leno’s collection includes rare gems like the 1930 Bentley G400, 1963 Jaguar E-Type, and a steam-powered 1906 Stanley Steamer Vanderbilt Cup Racer. Few private collections worldwide are as large and varied as the former king of late-night TV!

Ralph Lauren

Ralph Lauren is best known for his outstanding taste in fashion, but the magnate’s eye for classic cars is just as impressive. Perhaps the most famous name in men’s fashion boasts a collection that features over 70 luxury vehicles and many stunning classics, such as the 1938 Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic, 1958 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa, and a pristine 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO. Now, that’s what you call luxury on wheels!

Jerry Seinfeld

Seinfeld’s success, from creating and starring in the biggest TV show in history, has allowed him to collect a stunning collection of classic cars. Seinfeld has a particular affinity for Porsches but owns a collection of about 150 vehicles valued at a staggering $50 million. Some of the masterpieces in Seinfeld’s automobile menagerie include a rare 1955 Porsche 550 Spyder and the one-of-a-kind 1949 Porsche 356/2. Seinfeld features many of his beloved classics in his Netflix show, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.

Paul Walker

The late Paul Walker, famous for his role in the Fast and Furious series, was a devoted car enthusiast on-screen and off. While he was best known for getting behind the wheel of modern imports in the film series, his collection featured many classic North American muscle cars. His wide collection of classics includes unique models, like the 1969 Yenko Camaro, the 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle, and a 1965 Ford Mustang. Walker’s passion for classic cars truly lives on through his remarkable collection.

Lewis Hamilton

It’s no surprise that Lewis Hamilton, the winningest driver in Formula One history, is also an avid car collector. Also, to no one’s surprise, Hamilton’s collection features models with one thing in common: speed. While Hamilton has many modern supercars from brands like McLaren and Ferrari, he also has an affinity for classic muscle cars, owning powerful classics such as the 1967 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 and 1966 Shelby Cobra 427.

Rowan Atkinson

Funny man Rowan Atkinson, aka Mr. Bean, profoundly loves and appreciates classic cars. It seems that his impressive car collection is the one thing that Mr. Bean takes seriously! Some of Atkinson’s luxurious collection treasures include a 1964 Ford Falcon, a rare 1939 BMW 328, and the crown jewel—his 1955 Jaguar MK7. Who wouldn’t want to ride shotgun with Mr. Bean in these fantastic classic cars?

Lady Gaga

She may be more well-known for her fashion choices and poker face, but Lady Gaga also boasts one of the most impressive private car collections in the US. Her collection encompasses a variety of classics, from vintage glamour to modern elegance, such as a 1965 Lincoln Continental, a 1962 Chevrolet Corvair, and a stunning blue 1970 El Camino. Now, that’s a collection that’s anything but shallow!

John Cena

You can’t see him, but WWE superstar and actor John Cena fiercely appreciates North American muscle cars. His enviable collection includes iconic classics like the 1970 AMC Rebel Machine, 1966 Dodge Hemi Charger, and a 1971 Ford Torino GT. With these powerful beasts in his possession, Cena is not only a wrestling legend but also a classic car connoisseur.

David Beckham

Football icon David Beckham has an impressive collection of vintage and modern cars, showcasing his love for luxury and speed. The Brit loves English cars, to no one’s surprise. Some of the gems in his collection include a limited edition 2006 Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe and a McLaren MP4-12C Spider. He’s even invested in Lunaz, which converts classic cars into electric vehicles to ensure their place in this ever-evolving, electrified world.

Nicolas Cage

The Oscar-winning actor and star of Gone in 60 Seconds, Nicolas Cage has amassed an impressive collection of cars. Cage’s garage boasts some of the world’s most exquisite and sought-after vehicles, from a 1955 Porsche 356 Pre-A Speedster to a 374K Rolls Royce Ghost. After filming Gone in 60 Seconds, Cage loved his character’s car so much that he brought home the specially designed 1967 Ford Mustang nicknamed “Eleanor.”

Michael Jordan

Many know basketball legend Michael Jordan for many things, including his love of cars. While his collection is full of cars from the nineties and 2000s, like a 2007 Aston Martin DB7 Volante, Jordan also appreciates North American muscle. His collection features some rare gems, including a 1965 Shelby Cobra. It’s safe to say that when it comes to cars, Jordan has just as much game off the court as he does on it.

Arnold Schwarzenegger

Last but certainly not least, we have the “Terminator” himself, Arnold Schwarzenegger. With over 100 cars, Schwarzenegger’s garage is full of iconic classics like a 1968 Dodge Charger and a 1961 Willys Jeep.
