12 Celebs Who Wrecked Their Cars (13 Who Showed Some Respect)

With fame comes money, and with money comes power, and sometimes people get a funny impression. For some people, it is quite enough to simply move around unnoticed, incognito and unnoticed. Others like to make themselves known when they go somewhere to be noticed and get everyone's attention. Either way, how do you like to do it well, but when you go big, do it right or go home!

Americans' love for car culture seems to have no boundaries, and anyone with a bit of creativity and desire can have their own piece of automotive art. It is a cross-cultural, bipartisan and open-minded approach. There are no age limits, no height requirements, and all you need is some passion. Hot rodding started with dirty poor people tweaking everything they could to get everything they could get from their cars. When you don't have enough money, you have to make do with what you have.

But when you can literally flush money down the toilet and not notice it, your point of view tends to change; sometimes too much money makes people do things with their cars that just shouldn't be done. Although the artistic finger of a person draws their preferences for everyone, and the definition of beauty is always subjective, I have compiled a small list of do's and don'ts in case you ever find that you have more money than you can reasonably spend. your own. Remember kids, nobody likes tools. Sometimes less is more.

25 Ken Block's '65 Street Shredder

Extreme sports enthusiast Ken Block is known for his love of madness, especially when driving. DC Shoe Company founder Block flooded internet traffic around the world with his viral video of driving a 500 hp Subaru Impreza four-wheel drive. The four and a half minute video features some of the most talented driving you'll ever see, on or off the sidewalk, with stunts like donuts around a man shooting paintballs at a car's windshield.

We all thought it was a revolutionary video and it was just impossible to top it, right? Wrong! There was absolutely a way to top it. Although it's not easy; First you need to turn a 1965 Mustang into a beast never seen before. The all-wheel-drive Mustang is powered by a bulletproof Roush-Yates 410cid racing engine that can easily withstand temperatures in excess of 240°F and keep killing tires. The fully custom-built transmission features custom-made universal joints and is mounted in carriers to reduce the component's tendency to harmonics at speeds up to 8,000 rpm. The billet aluminum suspension system, made from scratch, was made to meet the high performance requirements of vehicles; it needed to be able to minimize excessive geometry fluctuations while allowing for a large steering angle and travel. Bolt it all to a custom carbon fiber Mustang-bodied chassis and you're a man.

24 GTO Kevin Hart on the low

Kevin Hart grew up in Philadelphia obsessed with comedy. His humble roots began in comedy clubs shortly after graduating from high school, where he began to make a name for himself. He faced countless rejections and faced what seemed like a maze of obstacles on his way through the cutthroat comedy business. However, he never gave up; rather, he overcame resistance and finally found himself and his comedic voice.

Success allowed him to gift himself a 1966 Pontiac GTO for his 32nd birthday.nd birthday. It was his father's favorite car, and also Kevin's car; in fact so beloved that he won't let his father drive him.

Maybe it's because he spent many years of blood, sweat and tears on the recovery process, but my theory is that he is afraid that his father will scratch the discs! I wouldn't blame him; If I were his father, I would drag this thing along the curb until the disks wear out! Somewhere everything fits, but not everywhere. Big rims have their place in custom builds that look amazing, but classic American muscle is no place for such blasphemous wheel choices. The GTO is my favorite, so seeing them do something like this made me shudder.

23 Jerry Seinfeld Spyder Champion

Entering the stand-up scene in the mid-70s, young Jerry started out the way most comedians do, from the bottom, slowly working his way up. Fractures came for the comedian when he was invited to The Tonight Show in 1981 and developed his television special Seinfeld which ran for nine seasons from 1987 to 1998. His sitcom of the same name was the highest rated show in the United States when its last episode aired; since then, he has continued to work on other successful projects that have netted him an estimated net worth in excess of $900 million.

Everyone has weaknesses, even Superman. If you're Jerry, you might be immune to tons of kryptonite, but something cool on wheels will be tempting, especially if it's a Porsche. Mr. Seinfeld is an avid car collector with about 150 vehicles to his credit, many of which far exceed the average person's hopes of ever owning one. Take, for example, the $2.6 million Porsche RSK Spyder; This car has had a successful racing history since it rolled off the assembly line in '59. The car was regularly driven by Jerry at private racing events from 2001 when he bought it until it was sold at the Barrett-Jackson auction. He pretty much bought the car for experience and drove it for a bit before handing it over for the next guy to enjoy. Great guy, that Jerry.

22 Flo Rida's naughty golden Bugatti

Born in 1979, Tramar Dillard was one of seven siblings who grew up together. The brother-in-law was an advertising agent for a local band who influenced the young Dillard to start his own amateur rap group while a freshman in high school. His first single, "Low", featuring T-Pain, was a turning point in his career, peaking at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. However, getting to where he is now has not been easy; he stayed in motels and occasionally on the streets, worked odd jobs and paid many dues upfront before fame and recognition followed his stubborn persistence.

Like many artists, his struggles were real, and much of the credit goes to his monumental success in his music career, which earned him an estimated net worth of around $30 million.

Now, with so much money, there is little a person can do; the world is your pearl. The way a person chooses to express themselves at this point is almost trivial compared to a normal person, but is nevertheless condemned. Spending $1.7 million on a Bugatti Veyron is a statement in itself, especially when you're about to face financial ruin. Wrapping it in satin gold is a complex statement that might not make sense to us peasants, but even if it was confiscated, all he has to do is google it to reminisce about the good old days.

21 Bullit Spec Bruce Willis

German-born Bruce Willis grew up from a long family of workers; mother was a banker, and father was a master mechanic, welder and factory worker; No doubt, tough as nails, no nonsense, kind of guy. No wonder Bruce Willis can portray an action hero on screen so easily. It's so believable; whether he's driving a cement truck like a renegade through New York or shooting a 12GA buckshot at an oilman sleeping with his daughter, Bruce is a man. It's actually hard to watch him play the emasculated shot after seeing the Bruce we know and love.

So, if you are a man, your car must be a man too, right? You cannot drive a Toyota Prius; leave that to Ryan Gosling. When you're a man, you want something heavy, loud, mid-range that releases massive amounts of NOx into the atmosphere with every exhaust stroke. In this case, the Bullitt spec '69 charger must meet all requirements. The anti-environmental big block 440cid produced 375 hp. through the transmission but for Willis, the car was equipped with a huge 8.2-liter big block. That's 500 cubic inches of middle fingers for a Toyota flagship. Keep it real, Bruce; let our grandchildren worry about the ozone layer.

20 Camo Lambo by Chris Brown

Chris Brown has been subjected to numerous convictions and punishments during his rollercoaster career. No doubt a successful artist and a prominent presence in the R&B genre, this man is worshiped by many with idol-like respect for the gods. Others are filled with contempt at the mention of his name. I'm not here to review any of this, although I strongly condemn men who attack women. Neither here nor there, the real issue today is whether there is a neurological chemical imbalance in this man's brain, or maybe he needs an eye test. Having a lot of money sometimes does strange things to a person.

Bill Gates has what is considered the largest charitable foundation in the US with over $35 billion in assets; as of 2014, Mr. Gates has invested about $28 billion in it since its launch in 2000. He drives a $225,000 Porsche with a net worth of over $93 billion. At a comparatively meager $30 million (I said comparatively) Chris Brown has a collection of much more expensive cars such as the Bugatti Veyron. Yes, his asset-to-liability ratio is probably much lower, but my problem here is that the money is being spent stupidly. What kind of idiot does this shit with a $400,000 sports car? Even if I felt the need to be so bright, I would do it from my plane so that at least I could descend on you from above.

19 Jeff Dunham runs them

When your claim to fame is voicing puppets being raped by your forearm, it tends to put you in the stereotype of people who are a little off. I like a good Jeff Dunham spoof from time to time, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't sit and think about what's going on behind the scenes. Sure, it's funny when he's on stage, but I'm obsessed with what's going on behind the scenes; does he do it in the shower? Does he sit at home alone and play with his puppets? Does he rehearse while driving? At what point does it all start to get weird?

Well, redemption comes in many forms, and if he does it while driving, there's a good chance he still looks cooler than you. Dunham owns a 1970 speed R/T Challenger Sublime year 4 green with a 440 big block six-cylinder engine.

The green car has black side stripes and a darkened hood. Sema shows a qualitative state, the car is one average car. So when Dodge released the supercharged 6.2-litre, 700-horsepower Hellcat and offered it in retro-classic green with black stripes, the puppet man needed to have one, and now he has two. Like his act or not, you can't deny the style of his driveway.

18 Shameless Audi Justin Bieber

Being a jerk has never been so bad; if you're not a teenage girl, then maybe it looks good. It's not about his quarter-million dollar net worth, it's not that he's a millennial (although that doesn't help his cause) or that he's a genuinely talented artist (yes, I'll give him that). I attribute my contempt for this little snot to the fact that, thanks to his early success, he developed an unrealistic expectation of the world.

I don't know if it's a status thing or a peacock way; perhaps trying to stand out from the crowd of other people who also have an almost unlimited budget is harder than it sounds. But there is no excuse for this nonsense! The gift came at 18th a birthday present for Bieber's cute cheeks from Ellen DeGeneres, and the first thing he did with it was install a West Coast customs lighting kit. Can he be deported back to Canada already? Oddly enough, he tries to hide from the cameras when he drives this thing. I would have thought there was a better choice of vehicle to hide in, but what do I know?

17 Jesse James custom coupe

Born in Lynnwood, California, Jesse James goes by the name of a notorious folk hero known for theft, organized crime, and murder. However, the only thing that kills this Jesse (besides Sandra Bullock's heart) is the assembly of cars and motorcycles to order. The scandals have hit his public image and his West Coast Choppers helicopters have since closed their doors, but old Jesse can't seem to hold back when it comes to cars. As much as he claims to be addicted to sex, his attraction to things with engines on both two and four wheels was the vehicle that led him to the successful Discovery series, as well as custom builds for some major public figures.

However, he does not live only to work, and he keeps some of his buildings, at least for a while. This '36 five-window Ford Coupe is the first of his personal collection to be auctioned at Barrett-Jackson.

Custom touches are everywhere on this machine and all the metal work was done by Jesse and his West Coast Customs team. It features a grill from a Nash truck, a custom hood, sleek body panels and a very chopped top. Fully air ridden, equipped to drop the chassis to the ground with the flick of a switch, the 350cid small block is paired with a Turbo drivetrain surrounded by a NASCAR-style exhaust. One-of-a-kind construction by a one-of-a-kind builder; it was one of the few things that Monster Garage didn't hack.

16 Pink Passion Paris Hilton

When you are born with a silver spoon in your mouth, you grow up a little different. Little Hilton, the eldest daughter of the developer, was persuaded to participate in modeling shows in her youth. Having various members of the extended family in show business helped her to a certain extent, but it wasn't until the tape bomb fell that it really made her break out. If you remember, this was one of the biggest cassette scandals to date; since then, many celebrities have had their own "accidental" cassette leaks over the years.

Rarely do you meet a more stupid person who has so little to offer, but has achieved such fame. It's not enough to just buy a Bentley to make it stand out on the streets; Hilton had to refit it from roof to rubber with embroidery, interior, matching rims and her initials on the grille where the Bentley logo is. She has a special tint on the windows to keep out the camera flash, but maybe if she wasn't driving down the quarter-million-dollar road, there would be fewer paparazzi.

15 Jay Leno's Seagull Wing Road Queen

Some are born with a penchant for things that seem natural. To Jay Leno's talking chin, it was a comedy. A note from his teacher on his report card when he was in fifth grade read, "If Jay spends as much time studying as he does becoming a comedian, he'll be a big star." This strange prophetic entry on his report card should be framed and hung in his garage; he had undoubtedly moved his comedy forward through years and years of resistance from teachers and could not be silenced.

His success has given him the dream of many men since the advent of the automobile; a vehicle garage large enough to fill the entire display. Of the 286 units he owns, 169 are cars; other motorcycles.

From rare one-offs and limited editions to vintage cars and even steam-powered cars, he has a large toy collection. Among the $50 million worth of equipment is a super rare Mercedes Benz 300SL gullwing roadster that sat in a container in the desert for decades before the owners contacted Leno to see if he would like to adopt it. He made the adoption, as many machines do, and began the painstaking process of restoration. This rare race car is valued at around $2 million and is considered by some to be the finest race car ever made.

14 Iki Aventador Nicki Minaj

The Trinidad-born music legend came to America when she was five and settled in Queens, New York. Her father, a violent drug addict, at one point set the house on fire in an attempt to harm her mother. Nicky's drive to succeed, fueled by her desire to give her battered mother the voice she never had, led her to where no one else in the music industry has been able to.

She has awards and nominees in more categories you can count and a net worth in the region of $75 million. Not bad for a previous Red Lobster employee who got fired for being rude to customers, right?

From Red Lobster to Pink Aventador, the 5ft 2in singer has never backed down or gone unnoticed. This can be seen in some of her other luxury cars, including a pink Bentley Continental and a bubblegum-colored Range Rover. You would think that after a few rides painted in this color, you would want to up your $400,000 Lamborghini investment a bit, but not this time. Style is not cheap; but it's not synonymous with value, and with so much money, you'd think these people could do a little better for themselves!

13 Super Sport by Funkmaster Flex

Aston George Taylor Jr., better known to the masses as the Funkmaster Flex, is a multifaceted entertainment industry talent. His rap and DJ career is probably what he is best known for, but he has dabbled in acting, hosted a radio show, and been a record producer. This resume list goes back to the age of 16 when he was DJing at local nightclubs. He began hosting his own show in the early 90s as the urban hip-hop movement began to re-emerge, and has had a successful career in entertainment.

Entertainment and rhythms are not the only two things he is attached to; Aston also loves their cars. Most celebrities do this, but the difference is that Aston has taste. Instead of $300,000 exotic cars, he prefers his American muscle, and plenty of it.

Funkmaster has a garage full of classic muscle cars restored to pristine condition: a '71 Torino GT, a '69 GTO convertible, a '67 Chevelle, '69 and '69 Camaros in the works, and a Galaxy 67 th year, which is being restored for myself along with a few builds for some friends such as Danica Patrick.

More than anything, he loves his iconic '70 Chevelle. This is a real Super Sport. The original 396 big block has been replaced with a 502 that rolls like thunder under mirror-smooth red paint with black stripes. Instead of bling and shows, Funkmaster prefers his old and classic style, something you can't buy in a new car.

12 deadmow5

Deadmau5 (pronounced "dead mouse") is an electronic house music composer with trendy tunes that will spice up any rave or your work urge as you vape and bigger clouds blow out the window than a house fire. No matter what you think of his music, this man has amassed over $53 million towards his net worth; this is the ultimate measure of success in my book. I can really enjoy his music; there is nothing better than spinning your car to uplifting music to get you moving, at home or in the store.

But musical style and aesthetic style are two different things, and often musical taste has nothing to do with the ability not to completely mess up or mess up everything about a car. This Zimmerman learned the hard way that his Ferrari styling was called "Perrari". The cat creating rainbows on the door and side panel, as well as his custom badges and floor mats, brought him a cease and desist letter from Ferrari's lawyers, apparently unhappy enough to threaten him with legal action. That's how bad this car looks; the claim is alarmingly bad. I've never heard a car manufacturer take such a great interest in modifying their customers' cars, especially when said car costs as much as a house. Kind of makes you want to see the offending badge now, doesn't it?

11 Blastolin Jay Leno Special

Leno needs no other introduction; it wasn't needed in the first place. Everyone, for as long as I can remember, has always at least heard this name and knew that he had "The Tonight Show". However, most people may not have heard of one of his concoctions, which is so unique that I don't know what category to put it in. Is it fried meat? Is it a racing car? Is this a getaway car? Maybe it's a tank? But this is stupid, you say; doesn't look like a tank! To that I would say it's true, but it sounds exactly like a tank because it's powered by the M47 Patton tank engine. Yes, to be precise, Continental AV1790 5B.

This, my friend, is an American 90-degree V-12 with over 800 hp. and torque of 1,440 ft/lb. The giant 5.75 cubic inch (5.75 L) engine with a bore of 1,791 inches and a stroke of 29.4 inches weighs 2,500 pounds dry. This engine is so big that when accelerating to highway speeds, the driver and passenger are exposed to more than 100 decibels. It's a rock bank/loud jackhammer. But it takes all the power to roll an 8,900-pound tanker, and it takes a Goodyear garbage truck to support that weight. Why did Jay do it, you ask? Well, he's Jay Leno, that's why.

10 Tyga's sick job in a semi-house

It's one thing to spend astronomical sums of money on cars; when you buy a $200,000 sports car, you get a $200,000 sports car. When you're overwhelmed with cash that you don't know what to do with, if that's your prerogative, by all means buy as many cars as you want. What doesn't make sense is buying a $112,000 car and adding an extra 65% to that cost for absolutely zero mechanical gain. For me, a car is a car; and while beautiful machines are good, performance is better. If I invest $75,000 in my $112,000 sports car, it will have a fan bigger than a trash can sticking out of the hood, I will ride on rails and go through 8 seconds for a quarter mile at a trap speed of 160 miles per hour.

If your name is Tyga and you're a rapper, you're going to be spending $75,000 on a Versace-style Connolly leather interior, liquid silver paint, forged aluminum wheels, and a titanium exhaust.

Of course, there are ECU mods here and there and a few other fools, but for shouting out loud, this is worth half a house of fools on a car that is barely worth a quarter of a house! The paint process is actually very cool and it is necessary to use an expensive liquid silver base coat to give the chrome look a mirror finish. But for this, I could show much more than a paint job that is expensive for daily driving.

9 Sunny Usaina Bolt

newsroom.nissan-europe.com

Jamaican athlete Usain Bolt is a real beast. The eight-time Olympic champion and 11-time world champion in running has repeatedly set world records and earned the nickname "Lightning". He was born in Jamaica in 1986. He was 12 years old when he became the fastest runner in his elementary school. At 16 and 6ft 5in tall, he competed on the world stage in his own Jamaica in the then biggest event of his life, winning the 200m 0.03 seconds slower than his personal best. His 200m victory instantly turned him into the world's youngest junior gold medalist.

An athlete of that caliber wouldn't ride with anyone, no sir. A suitable Chevrolegs replacement would have to be something that could blast off the track at unmatched speed, grip the corners like it was on rails, and still be classy. The answer to that little question lies in the Nissan GT-R, with its 3.6-liter twin-turbocharged V-6 engine producing 565 hp. Its 6-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and all-wheel drive system keep this little monster moving at lightning speed. Quick steering ratio and adjustable suspension put this Mini Nismo right where you point it. When you need to run, 0 km/h in less than three seconds is at your fingertips.

8 G-Class Anton Kasabov is going to serve his sentence

The Mercedes G-Class has a military background and was converted to a civilian version in 1979; the early G-class truck was sometimes referred to as the "Wolf". The Model 461 military truck first entered service with the Argentine army in 1981. Its medium-sized four-wheel drive body was attached to the frame for truck-like handling and rigidity. Despite the availability of a civilian version since the late 70s, it did not appear on the US market until 2002, and even then, since the 90s, its sales were estimated at six figures. Due to the prohibitive cost, annual sales in the US have ranged from 3,000 to 3,900 from 2002 until recently, so you won't see too many cars on the road; and when you do, it's rare.

As rare as it is, you still can't just do whatever you want with it and expect it to be acceptable. Actor and martial artist Anton Kasabov is an international gold medal winning Bulgarian who, using all the existing car paint colors, decided to accent his G car in pink and black, put low-profile tires on big pink rims and turned it around. into a shameful, rolling eyesore. Of course, it's still a cool truck; modified 600 hp engine accelerates the car to 0 km / h in 60 seconds, but I do not understand colors. It looks so stupid.

7 Tom Cruise's Crusin '58

For a person who needs no introduction, a car that also needs no introduction will do. Why else would he choose a '58 Corvette? There are probably several good reasons for this, namely because you can; but the rarity of these cars makes them attractive anywhere. Throw Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes into the equation, and the only thing you can go on a date with is an F-14; but since even this Maverick can't handle this mission impossible, the '58 Vette is a worthy replacement.

Armed with body restyling for the '59 model year, the Corvette received a longer front end with four headlights, which were fitted to several other Chevrolet models of that year.

With body lines smoother than those of Cruz's pickup truck, this magnet senorita features classic paint styling, stock wheels and even clear windows. This is one of those cars where you don't have to throw in a bunch of goofy flair and flamboyance to show you're a man. You are a man only to drive him. It needs a cool car, and the Top Gun instructor seems to have taken the hint.

6 H1 by Dennis Rodman to hide his kids from

This is Dennis Rodman's personal car. Do I need to say more? Where can you even start with this? Uh... how about eight different explicit images of women that had to be censored to show it? A completely tasteless paint job is nothing more than a shoddy expression of automotive art that barely goes beyond body painting. As for nude ladies, I have seen much better pictures.

But wait, there's more! Look under the monster's hood and find a 6.5-liter Hummer turbocharged Detroit Diesel engine nestled peacefully in the engine bay. A nest of unkempt-looking wires chimes wildly into battery terminals and other electrical devices nearby. Amplifier cables are seen winding back to his ghetto audio system, which was willy-nilly placed in the cargo hold. If I went outside and found the crappiest car to pull the audio out of, I'd probably walk away with that setup.
