Now, with Lebron James signing contracts worth over 100 million, it's definitely no surprise he has one of the most ridiculous car collections in the entire league. Lebron himself even admitted that he's bought so many cars during his professional career, he actually forgot about some of the ones he owns. Before Lebron was even drafted by the Cavaliers, his mother took out a loan to buy him a Hummer H2 for his 18th birthday during his senior year, in hopes that her son's potential would amount to something much larger. His mother bought the car in 2002 with a retail price of roughly $63,000 at the time, and the customized Hummer features a chrome grill, 28-inch chrome rims, TVs, a JBL sound system, and even a PlayStation 2 In 2013, the car was auctioned off at Golden Auctions, and although at the time was only valued at $18,000, many critics said that they believed the car could easily reach the sixth figure mark with its editions and status. Now moving on to the first episode of The Unique Whip Show that aired in 2008, Will Castro, the owner of Unique Autosports, presented Lebron a brand new customized Ferrari F430 that totaled about $200,000, and he could barely even fit in it. But custom chrome rims, red seats, and floor mats all had his logo put on them. And Lebron talked about this saying, My logo is very worldwide known, so I kind of like to put my stamp on everything I do and everything I drive. After test driving it around and almost running out of gas, Lebron talked about the new car saying, I might not get out of it. I might sleep in it tonight. I take pride in whatever car that I get. Now over the years, we've seen Lebron purchase more cars than some people do shoes, with him rolling up in a Maybach and Pearl White with a custom license plate saying King of Ohio. Riding around Miami in multiple Porsches, one all black, and even a custom white on black masterpiece during an instance where TMZ was harassing him about which team he'd end up on next. He even has a similar color scheme Bentley Continental GT with the custom white on black as well, and rides around in classic whenever he gets a chance, owning a purple customized Chevy Impala looking like something out of a video game. So it's clear Lebron likes to stand out wherever he goes. But when Lebron turned 25, his Cavalier teammate at the time, Shaquille O'Neal, actually gifted him a $400,000 Rolls Royce Phantom for his birthday. The excitement, however, didn't last long. It's just a few days later, Lebron went back to Unique Auto Sales and copped himself an all-red Ferrari 599 for $310,000 as a gift to himself. Now, one of Lebron's favorite cars happens to be his customized Lamborghini Aventador. It has a license plate that says Toys for Boys. The 2013 Aventador Lebron bought was actually reported at nearly $700,000, and also had a Miami vibe clean palm tree floral wrap. Shortly after purchasing the car, Lebron was still trying to figure out the concept for his new shoes. And he loved the car so much that he decided to base the shoe off of this brand new whip. Now, Lebron's garage are filled with millions of dollars on cars alone, including a Challenger in Dallas Cowboys colors, an all-white Camaro, a customized red-on-black Ferrari that he's been spotted in many times so you know it's one of his favorites, and he's even had a custom red-on-black Kia Lebron edition made to where it was auctioned off for charity.
Now, with Steph Curry becoming a face of the NBA, contracts both on and off the court have been thrown at him for ridiculous amounts. With that being said, he actually has one of the biggest car collections in the league as well. The G-Wagon that he got his hands on in 2009 at $120,000 got the premium chrome upgrade as well as custom wheels to finish it off. And also, sitting at roughly $176,000, the red Porsche 911 that Steph copped goes 0-60 in just 3 seconds. With its top speed at just under 200 miles per hour, this isn't his most expensive whip, but it is the fastest. The bright red exterior easily stands out in so much that a fan caught Steph at a local gas station and recorded a cringe video trying to hype him up. But in 2014, Curry broke through the scene when a popular page named Cali Wheels posted his new all-white Range Rover that he actually purchased for 210,000. Curry spent a bit more adding custom 22-inch wheels along with some chrome and special trim as well, and the inside of the range includes a mini fridge, massage seats for the passengers, and a $2,000 sound system. Now, we all know that Curry's a family man, but his love of Porsches didn't just stop because of that. He's also copped $150,000 Porsche Panamera Turbo. Unfortunately, in 2018, Curry got hit on the Oakland Highway by a Silver Lexus that spun out of control and hit him. Thankfully, Curry had no fault in the accident, and everyone involved in the incident left without injuries, although his Porsche was wrecked. Many Porsche owners and even Porsche executives spoke publicly saying that they believed the four-door model that Curry was driving was partially the reason why he wasn't injured, and they praised the strength of the car's frame.
