Some would argue that
they got the best jobs in the world, and being a footballer was a dream of many
of us. They play football for a living and it doesn’t get much better than
that. One more benefit of this job is abundance of money which they spend on
some serious cars. Here are 12 most expensive cars among footballers.
12. Wayne Rooney’s Aston Martin Vanquish S
Aston Martin produces
cars with timeless design and top level engineering. Lot of wealthy people
recognize those qualities, which made it one of the top choices among rich and
famous.
Wayne Rooney got
himself Aston Martin Vanquish S which set him back around 152 thousand pounds
or $230K . When it comes to performance, this car is close to the top. It
develops well over 500 HP and it will hit 60 miles per hour in little over 4
seconds.
It is definitely one
of the best looking cars and it shows class, speed and luxury, all rolled into one
car. Even though it is the last place on our list, because of its price, it
doesn’t really fall behind any of the other cars.
Bentley has always
been a synonym for luxury and lot of wealthy people are attracted to this brand
just because of that reason.
One of those luxury
Bentleys found its way to Rio Ferninand which paid 158K of British pounds or
$240K for Arnage model.
It is one of their
earlier models which actually can be seen by the exterior design, but when it
comes to interior, level of luxury is really impressive and it can be compared
to most luxurious cars of today.
Bentley Arnage
develops somewhere around 500HP depending on the version, and even though it is
a huge car, it still has impressive performance numbers. It is not really a
looker, but a car like this definitely stands out wherever it is.
10. Emmanuel Adebayor’s Aston Martin DBS V12
10. Emmanuel Adebayor’s Aston Martin DBS V12
Just like Rooney,
Adebayor recognized the qualities of British cars and he got Aston Martin DBS
V12. Its 6 liter V12 produces one of the best noises in car industry, which
gets the blood boiling of everyone around it.
Even though this is a
high performance car, it isn’t necessarily all about numbers. It has more
important job and that’s to give you the best driving pleasure available.
It is definitely one
of the cars which stand out the most, whether it is because of design, that
amazing engine roar or its overall uniqueness. However, none of this comes
cheap and Adebayor had to pay just over 165K of GBP or $250K for his, but
considering his earnings, he probably doesn’t sweat over it.
9. Mesut Ozil’s Ferrari 458
9. Mesut Ozil’s Ferrari 458
Ferrari is definitely
one of the global symbols of success and each one of their models is special in
its own way. They are the company with racing heritage like no other, and that
of course reflects on their cars.
Mezut Ozil got
himself a Ferrari 458 which is one of the best driver’s cars of today. Its V8
engine develops around 560 HP and it has that awesome sound that only comes
from Ferrari.
Design wise, it also
stands out and it doesn’t look like anything else on the road. This incredible
car will hit 60 miles per hour in 3 seconds and its maximum speed is 200 miles
per hour. As we all know Ferraris don’t come cheap, Ozil paid just under £170K
or $257K for his.
8. Frank Lampard’s Ferrari 612 Scaglietti
Here is one more
Ferrari on our list, and we’re about to see couple more of them. This time it’s
Ferrari 612 Scaglietti, which isn’t the prettiest Ferrari, but nonetheless it
is an incredible machine.
This car is equipped
with a 6 liters V12 engine which develops 540 HP and its top speed is just
under 200 miles per hour. One thing that separates this car from traditional
Ferrari is the front mounted engine, and the 4 seats.
Interior is amazing
and it is mainly focused on luxury. The car is basically set up in this way. It
is all about cruising in comfort. Just like all Ferraris, this one also comes
with a hefty price, and with all the options Lampard paid £200K or $302K for
his.
7. Mario Balotelli’s Ferrari F12 Berlinetta
This is undoubtedly
one of the prettiest Ferraris ever, and not everyone can get their hands on
one. However, Balotelli is known as car enthusiast and he managed to acquire
one.
Ferrari F12
Berlinetta has V12 under the bonnet which develops astonishing 730HP and it’s
capable of pushing this car to 60mph in 3.1 seconds, giving it the maximum
speed of around 210 miles per hour.
It is definitely a
piece of art, and the flawless design which is rather aggressive, but still
smooth make this car stunning. Even though it is a high performance car, it is
easy to live with every day. It is tamed in traffic and it is not overly
unpractical. This breathtaking car cost Balotelli £240K or $363K, but that’s
just pocket change for him.
6 Obafemi Martin’s SLR Mclaren Covertible
Our list is getting
more serious by each car and it is time for mercedse SLR McLaren which is a
dream car to many of us. When thid car came out, it offered everytinh latest in
technology and engineering. Although the creator of this car was not really
happy with the design. It is one of the poster cars which will never be
forgotten, and considering its rareness, performance and overall quality. It is
really a legendary car. McLaren SLR is a equipped with 5.4 litre super charged
engine which generates 617 horse power and that is enough to push this car
60MPH in 3.7 seconds. Considering its uniqueness, price also shouldnt be a
suprise. Obagoal had to pay £330k or $500k for this
5. El Hadji Diouf Mercedes Benz SLR
One more very well
known player was once more seduced by the fine looks of mercedes Mclaren SLR. However
the McLaren Mercedes of Obagoal and that of Diouf are two differnet things
altogether, Even though they use thesame engine,
Obafemi’s McLaren is convertible which means it weighs more due to the support
beams, which means in performance, it is a bit poor. El Hadji’s McLaren will
hit 60miles in 3.4 seconds which isn’t a huge difference but notwithstanding it
is significant. The car cost $636k or £420k
4. Zlatan Ibrahimovic Porsche 918 Spyder
Ibra knows what is
good and he got himself one of the best cars in the world now. It is Porsche
918 which offers all the latest technology in car industry. It is a very
complex car which delivers perfoemance out of this world with its combination
of petrol and electric motors. This wonders on wheel is insanely fast thanks to
the whole system which delivers 900HP and will go from0-60 Mph in 2.2seconds. Porsche
made a true modern engineering marvel with only competitors. P1 and laferrari. As
you can see, a car with this kind perfomnace can’t be cheap. It took
Ibrahimovic £620k or $938 to acquire this car.
3. Samuel Eto’s Buggati Veron
Buggati veron has
been on top of the world when it comes to speed for a while, mainly due to its
incredible engineering
It is engine is truly
amazing. It is W16 which produces over 1000HP, but depending on the version
this car can go all the way to produce 1200HP. It has basically
two engines which are fused together and powered by 4 turbo charges.
This kind of setup
produces high amount of heat and that is why buggati is equipped with 10
radiators. When it comes to performance, it is unsurpassed for a while, it will
reach 60Mph in 2.5 seconds and its maximum speed exceeds 250 miles per hour. For
making this car fastest in the world for good number of years, Eto’o had to pay
£1.5million or $2.7million to acquire it
2. Karim Benzema’s Buggati Veron
As i mentioned
earlier, this car is an engineering master piece and that’s why Benzema decide
to get one for himself. The only difference between benzema’s Buggati with
Eto;s is the Interior and exterior design but both have the same engine capacity
Benzema
paid £1.52 million to acquire this mini jet.
1. Cristiano Ronaldo’s Ferrari LaFerrari
Ultimate driver got
himself the ultimate car. It is arguably one of the best cars in the world and
it is Ferrari’s answer to other hypercars.
Just like 918 Spyder,
this car also gets its amazing performance from both petrol and electric motors
which develop combined 963 HP, giving this car acceleration and speed that’s
rarely seen.
Besides its amazing
performance, Ferrari LaFerrari is one of the best looking cars in the world, no
doubt about it. It really is a dream car, and not everyone can get one, but
since Ronaldo is probably the best football player in the world, it certainly
wasn’t too much of a hassle. When it comes to price, Ronaldo supposedly paid £2
million or $3.02M for this incredible car.
