Packing enough prestige to pale a supercar rental company’s fleet, Floyd Mayweather Jr’s personal supercar collection reveals how the filthy-rich sometime satisfy their ludicrous spending habits.
While conjecture surrounds the exact worth and size of his garage – Mayweather's personal driver says it’s US$9 million while ESPN revealed it stands closer to US$15 million – one thing is for certain: Mayweather likes showing off.
Three Bugatti Veyrons, three Rolls Royce phantoms and a Ferrari Enzo are only a handful of cars he owns, and are joined by the likes of McLaren’s 650S, a Ferrari 458 and Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, usually optioned in a white hue.
His ostentatious tastes are little surprise, the five-division world champion was 2014’s highest paid athlete according to Forbes, earning more the US$100 million in that year alone.
With this Sunday’s much publicised bout with Philippine boxer Manny Pacquiao predicted to smash records for financial earnings from a fight, we’ve pilfered his Instagram account to bring you nine glimpses of Mayweather’s auto collection that may be about to get even bigger…
#1 Not one to be known for humility, Mayweather's instagram has a picture of not one, but of the three 400km/h-plus Bugattis he owns, along with some other exotic chariots of his.
#2 The Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG’s gullwing doors along with the scissor items on the Mercedes-McLaren SLR and Lamborghini Aventador are typical of Mayweather’s taste.
#3 There’s little to criticise about his choice for Ferrari’s Enzo, though, the V12-powered tribute to the company’s founder untouched and left in its red hue.
#4 Expanding his ownership of Ferraris are a 458 Spider and 599 GTB Fiorano...
#5 …and his spouse’s silver 458. Whom he also gifted a silver Bentley Flying Spur…
#6 …to match his white and black Mulsannes.
#7 Joining his three Rolls Royce Phantoms from Manchester is a 2014 Wraith coupe.
#8 Again for his partner, a red Ferrari 458 Spider to match his own in white.
#9 In a change of colours, but not style, is a black Rolls Royce Ghost.
