Jay Z's $8 million Incredible Maybach

AutoBody-Review jay z's 8 million incredible maybach

When you mention dream cars, that can mean a wide range of models and prices, depending on who you talk to. At Service King North Waco, we love these stories in Waco, TX about celebrities and their amazing vehicles. Some might think of a BMW 3 Series in the $50,000 range, while others envision a Mercedes-Benz S-Class priced at $100,000, or a Ferrari that can cost several hundred thousand dollars. A six-figure car is not as rare as it used to be, especially when it comes to celebrity vehicles.  

So who owns the most expensive celebrity car? According to reports, it is rapper and businessman Jay Z. Born in 1969 as Shawn Corey Carter, Jay Z is a successful entrepreneur involved in a variety of industries including clothing, beverages, real estate, sports teams and record labels. One of the wealthiest hip-hop artists in the world, he has received 19 Grammy Awards and sold more than 100 million records. With a net worth reported by Forbes to be $610 million, the superstar drives a Maybach Exelero concept car worth a whopping $8 million.

The high-performance sports car has a twin turbo V12 engine, 700 horsepower and was built in 2004. Reaching over 200 mph, the two-seater coupe is one of the most exotic cars in the world. It was reportedly owned by the rapper Birdman in 2011. Jay Z featured the renowned vehicle in his music video for “Lost One” released in 2006.

He and Kanye West featured another Maybach in their music video “Otis.” The $350,000 luxury 2004 Maybach 57 was dismantled during the video. It was eventually auctioned off for $60,000 in March 2012. Part of the proceeds benefited Save the Children, which provides food for African children.

Both Maybach models were built by the German manufacturer Maybach-Motorenbau GmbH.  Maybach was acquired by Daimler-Benz in 1960 and is considered an ultra-luxury brand of Mercedes-Benz, owned by Daimler AG.

The Maybach Exelero is part of Jay Z’s impressive car collection worth an estimated $15 million. It includes a rare, Italian-built Pagani Zonda F worth $670,000 and a $2 million Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport given to him by his wife, Beyoncé. He and the singer/actress were married in 2008.

As far as celebrities go, he and Beyoncé have an impressive collection of vehicles that are powerful, stylish and definitely make a statement.
