Kanye West’s and Jay Z’s Maybach “Otis”
Take a $416,000 ultra-luxury high-performance sedan and hack it up into pieces, then reassemble it in odd fashion with an obvious post-apocalyptic influence, and be sure to toss in a Mad Max feel that makes anyone who sees the car want to reach for their musket. Now insert two highly successful rappers behind the wheel of the twin-turbo V12 Frankenstein, shoot a music video that is equal parts gritty and gaudy, and then be sure to collect a Grammy on the way out prior to putting the car up for auction at $60,000. Just another week in the life of the rich and shameless as Autoblog says that, “Despite its overt ugliness, the car certainly has provenance.”
Price Tag: $8,000,000
Guess when you’re on the top of Forbes’ lists every year, you can afford an $8 million ride. The Maybach Exelero looks like the freaking Batmobile! He drives the Maybach Exelero in the music video of his song, “Lost One”. It can reach a speed of 218.38mph, despite weighing over 2.66 tonnes. It is capable of acceleration from 0-60mph in 4.4 seconds. It was originally made as a one-off for Fulda Tires back in 2005, but now Maybach is manufacturing them for the general public. Not like anyone can afford them!
