Celebrity Rides: Diddy

Posted by Cory Lowe - 06 June, 2014

Sean Combs, known to the world as Diddy, is one of hip hop’s most notable car collectors. Diddy’s impressive fleet of luxury, exotic and one of a kind vehicles are a direct reflection of the mogul’s lavish and fashionable taste. 

Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe

No one should be surprised that Diddy is the proud owner of the most expensive car Rolls Royce has in its collection. Diddy’s white convertible coupe costs over $400,000 and combines the Phantom’s iconic platform with styling reminiscent of a concept car Rolls Royce unveiled in 2004. The ultra-luxury four-passenger car has an air of opulent class with its polished wood interior and aluminum convertible bonnet. Custom built in the United Kingdom, the Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe convertible is arguably the crown jewel of Diddy’s car collection.

1958 Corvette Convertible

Diddy’s personal favorite car is his pristine red and white 1958 Corvette convertible, which he boasts could land any man a date if driven slowly with the top down. The beautifully restored car is eye-catching and endlessly cool in its traditional bright red and white paintjob. Diddy has been seen showing the car off both on the road and at car shows with his other prized vehicles, and always makes it known that his beloved classic Corvette is his pride and joy among the collection.

Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder

The Gallardo Spyder is the most popular super car Lamborghini has ever made. You know a car is insanely fast and powerful when its top speed is 198 MPH when electronically controlled. Diddy has owned not one, but two, Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder super cars. When the wealthy superstar decided to replace his white Spyder with a newer Silver model, he gave the former to his pop star protege Justin Bieber as a birthday gift.

Maybach 57

The Maybach 57 is the height of lavish vehicle luxury, despite its recent sales slump that lead to the car being discontinued in 2013. Daimler AG created the Maybach 57, and its sister car the Maybach 62, in order to compete with Rolls Royce’s Phantom and the Bentley, which have been the longstanding cars of choice for the rich and famous.

Diddy made some waves when he gifted a black Maybach 57 to his son, as a reward for achieving honor roll in school, before the boy was old enough to drive. Parenting criticism was shrugged off, and Diddy made it clear that no one can fault him for using his enormous wealth to positively reinforce his child’s hard work. The $360,000 car came wrapped in a red bow with a driver on standby, to operate the car until the teenager reaches driving age.

Diddy has spent millions of dollars on jaw-dropping cars over the years, both for his own use and as gifts for others. The legendary hip hop mogul’s known collection of cars includes a range of rides, from whip-fast supercars to a classic convertible meant for slow, easy cruising.
