We all know that musicians like living their life to the fullest. Thanks to their talent, popularity, and sometimes, side businesses, some artists are able to buy luxurious mansions and build huge car collections.

Given their wealth, most musicians don’t limit themselves to just one vehicle. That’s how they get to these amazing car collections that others only dream of.

Whether you’re curious or you just need some inspiration to help you work towards your dream, we prepared a list of 10 musicians who managed to build huge car collections. Let’s get into it!

  • Beyonce

Did you ever imagine Beyonce being a car enthusiast? Beyonce is one of the most popular names in the music industry, but people mostly know her on-stage persona and are not aware of her love for cars. Well, Beyonce actually has a big car collection.

The singer managed to add some diversity among the vehicles she owns. Besides, she doesn’t only have fancy cars, but also some family-friendly ones. In her collection, she has the Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR, but she also has some vans, minivans, SUVs, and others. Considering Beyonce has children, it makes sense she invested in some family-friendly vehicles as well.

  • James Hetfield

Metallica’s lead singer did not shy away from building a car collection. As an integral part of one of the biggest metal bands in the world, the musician enjoyed his life to the fullest. If you’re wondering what he does when he’s not touring or recording new albums, well, you should know that James Hetfield is probably driving one of his cars.

The lead singer of Metallica has a hot rod collection, and he even gave names to some of them. He calls his 1936 Ford Coupe “Iron Fist”, for instance.

  • Jay-Z

Just like his wife Beyonce, Jay-Z also loves cars and has a wonderful collection, one that he shares with the pop singer. His collection is actually very impressive, as he owns some of the rarest vehicles that exist. Therefore, he chooses to spend his money on dream cars that he uses for himself and his family.

Some of the best pieces in his collection include the Alfa Romeo Spyder, but he also has a Jeep Wrangler. He has some great taste when it comes to his cars and a simple look at his collection will instantly reveal this.

  • Snoop Dogg

It’s not a surprise that Snoop Dogg would be the type of artist who owns several cars. Through his music, he was able to earn a lot of money, which he later used for purchasing multiple vehicles among other things. As such, he managed to build a huge car collection. On top of owning some great cars, he also customizes some of them. This is how he customized his 1967 Pontiac Parisienne, for example. He added some purple and gold elements to this car to represent the Lakers team.

What is noticeable in his collection is that even though he likes older cars, he always tweaks them to make them look a bit more modern. This is what makes them stand out.

  • Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga is also an artist who has her own car collection. She is known for her great music and unique voice, but also for her over-the-top style in both outfits and performance, as some may say.

Well, what is less known about her is that she has several cars in her collection. She has multiple Rolls-Royces, which she seems to love, but she also has a Ford Bronco. On top of that, a 1965 Lincoln Continental can also be found in her garage.

  • Justin Bieber

Justin Bieber has often been seen driving, and considering how much fame he has, the artist surely has a lot of wealth he can spend on vehicles. After all, he loves cars, so of course, he was going to get his own collection.

Some of the cars he owns are the Cadillac CTS-V, as well as a Ferrari F430 and a Lamborghini Aventador.

  • 50-Cent

50-Cent is a musician that always stood out, but his music is not the only one that speaks for himself. His car collection also does. And he has an impressive one, He owns a Ferrari F430, Lamborghini Murcielago, and Pontiac G8 Special Edition, among others.

  • Kanye West

Kanye West is, for sure, one of the most known artists in the music industry. He also likes splurging on luxurious things, so it’s no surprise that he has an impressive car collection. Kanye had some problems with his cars in the past – for example, someone crashed one of his vehicles into a house. Still, he loves cars and keeps buying them. An Aston Martin DB9 and Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren are only some examples from his collection.

  • Eric Clapton

The famous singer and guitar player Eric Clapton also decided to use his wealth to buy some of the cars he loves. He is mostly into Ferraris, and the SP12 EC is one of the models he owns. Of course, he has various other vehicles, such as Porsche 911 (997) Turbo and the 1938 Cadillac Fleetwood.

  • Wyclef Jean

The rapper Wyclef Jean loves collecting cars, and he definitely knows how to pick his models. Some of the cars he owns include a Bentley Arnage, Pagani Zonda C12, and McLaren F1.

You may not see the musician talking about his love for cars too much, but he is surely in love with them and takes good care of all his vehicles.

Final Thoughts

If you love any of these musicians, you may become inspired to buy your own car, perhaps even one of the models they own. You just have to make sure you don’t end up buying a lemon.

Lemon cars will give you a lot of trouble and you’ll have to spend time bringing them in for reparations that will be unsuccessful. Luckily, if you live in California like some of the celebrities on this list, you can hire a California lemon attorney, who will advise you and help you get compensation for the defective car you’ve bought.
