LeBron James loves to collect new, classic and exotic cars.

LeBron James is known around the world as one of the most dominant and successful athletes of all time. Since being drafted to the NBA in 2003, he has amassed three NBA championships, four NBA Most Valuable Player Awards, three NBA Finals MVP Awards, and two Olympic gold medals.

Along the way, and thanks to his success on and off the court, LeBron’s also built quite a reputation as a certified automobile fanatic. In 2015, James signed an unprecedented endorsement deal with Nike that will pay him more than $1 Billion by the time he reaches the age of 64.

With a current net worth estimated by Forbes in 2018 to be $450 Million, it’s likely the player known as King James will be able to afford as many new, classic, and exotic cars as his heart desires. Without any further ado, check out LeBron James’ epic car collection.

LeBron James’ Epic Car Collection

Rolls-Royce Phantom

The Rolls-Royce Phantom is one of the world’s most beloved luxury automobiles. Entirely handmade with the exception of its chassis, the Phantom has gone through ten generations since it was first unveiled in 1925.

To celebrate LeBron James’ 25th Birthday, fellow NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal bought the then Cleveland Cavalier a styling Rolls-Royce Phantom. While it’s unclear how Shaq may have customized King James’ Phantom, it was likely a very expensive gift.

In 2009, the MSRP of the Rolls-Royce Phantom was between $398,970 and $470,295.

Ferrari 599

The Ferrari 599 is the Italian luxury performance brand’s grand touring, front-engine, two-door flagship vehicle between 2006-2012. The 599 was originally designed by Japanese industrial design legend Ken Okuyama for Pininfarina.

LeBron James is the proud owner of a 2011 Ferrari 599. He enjoys driving it so much, he has two other Ferraris for when he needs to shake things up.

In 2011, the MSRP for a Ferrari 599 was around $310,250.

Ferrari F430 Spider

The Ferrari F430 Spider was produced between 2004 and 2009. At the time of its release, this was the 21st road-ready convertible produced by Ferrari in Maranello, Italy.

LeBron James is known for being an extremely muscular and tall guy. Officially standing 6’8’’, it was essential for LeBron’s F430 to be customized to allow him to comfortably fit inside.

In 2009, the Ferrari F430 Spider sold for an MSRP of $217,310.

1975 Chevy Impala

The 1975 Chevy Impala was the fifth generation of the car and was one of GM’s most popular cars during the years it was sold between 1971-1976. The 1975 model included some key innovations such as an electronic ignition and catalytic converter.

It’s unclear what exactly inspired LeBron James to want to pickup a 1975 Chevy Impala. Perhaps he knew someone who had one when he was younger, or maybe he just respects classic American cars.

In 1975, the Chevy Impala sold for a base price of around $4,150.

Bentley Continental GT

The Bentley Continental GT is one of the world’s most beloved luxury grand touring automobiles. Celebrated by hip hop icons, business moguls, and star athletes, it’s easy to understand why LeBron James is so proud of his Bentley.

All-white and no doubt customized ridiculously, LeBron has gone on record saying his 2018 Bentley Continental GT is one of his absolute favorite cars in his collection.

A 2018 Bentley Continental GT starts at a base price of $218,400.

2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS

The 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS belongs to the fifth generation of the legendary American pony car which was in production between 2010-2015. Originally announced as a concept car in 2006, the revamped Camaro SS heralded a renaissance in American muscle cars produced by General Motors.

LeBron James definitely has a thing for stylish white cars. This is one of several in the NBA star’s amazing car collection.

A 426 Horsepower 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS starts at an MSRP of around $30,950.

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat

The 2019 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is a front-engine, rear-wheel drive muscle car. It is one of Fiat Chrysler’s flagship performance orientated sports cars.

Decked out with blue paint and with silver accent stripes, LeBron’s 2019 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat was designed to celebrate his favorite football franchise: The Dallas Cowboys.

A 2019 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat starts at a base price of around $23,000.

2015 Kia K900

LeBron James is quite the businessman. Among his numerous international sponsorships, he is known as a brand ambassador for Kia. Despite being connected to the brand, James asserts that he has owned his 2015 Kia K900 since before his sponsorship deal.

The MSRP for a 2015 Kia K900 is around $60,000.

Lamborghini Aventador Roadster

The 2019 Lamborghini Aventador Roadster was described by Lambo CEO Stephan Winkelmann as “the most extraordinary car in the company’s illustrious history” when it launched. It’s hard to argue with a mid-engine dream car capable of going 217 mph that was named after a prize fighting bull.

LeBron James was so excited about his 2019 Lamborgini Aventador Roadster, he decided to have it wrapped to match the LeBron James X1 “King’s Pride” shoes by Nike. His totally cutomized Lambo is said to have cost in excess of $675,000.

The MSRP for a 2019 Lamborghini Aventador Roadster starts around $460,247.

Mercedes-Benz Maybach 57 S

The Mercedes-Benz Maybach 57 is considered one of the kings of German automotive engineering, so it is no surprise that LeBron’s license plate for his reads “KNG OF OH”. Though he’s based in L.A. now and playing for the Lakers, James clearly has fond memories of his early career and rise to stardom in Ohio.

A 2012 Mercedes-Benz Maybach 57S starts around $376,300.

A 2018 Maybach S650 goes for around $198,700.

Porsche 911 Turbo S

The Porsche 911 Turbo S is one of the world’s most exciting sports cars. In production since 1963, the 911 has been through many variants while remaining one of the smoothest and most fun to drive cars around.

LeBron James and fellow NBA star Dwayne Wade have posed alongside their Porsche 911 Turbo S’ on several occasions. Clearly they both appreciate this epic ride. James loves his so much, he bought a Panamera for his mom.

The Porsche 911 Turbo S starts at an MSRP of around $60,000 but LeBron’s apparently cost $161,800.
