Rick Ross is the proud owner of the Maybach 57

Rick Ross

William Leonard Roberts II, known by his professional name as Rick Ross is the proud owner of the Maybach 57, touted as among the fastest luxury cars today. The rapper-actor reportedly paid a total price of US$430,000 for his Maybach 57. It’s not known why Rick Ross chose the Maybach 57 for his use. Perhaps he was attracted by the rear-seat DVD entertainment system or maybe he likes to feel the thump of the 21-speaker Bose premium sound system in his Maybach. He also has a Bentley Continental and a Rolls-Royce Ghost to round out the luxury segment of his fleet. Whatever the reason is, Rick Ross always likes to share the good life and invest in his car collection which also included an Aston Martin DB7 and a customized Lamborghini Murcielago LP640-4 Roadster. The latter is reportedly bought for around US$210,000.

Almost all of them said that they took their car for a ride. Some say they drove on some scenic highways while others say they took their family out in their new car for a treat. Would you like to revisit such feeling once in a while?

Rolls Royce Phantom Sedan

The Phantom stems from the mid-twenties, making it one of the oldest nameplates in the market. The interior is everything you’d expect from about half a million dollars’ worth: plush, comfortable, luxurious. Compared to its priors, this car sports a contemporary design with aggressive curves and edgy cuts. It has 563-hp V-12, 563-hp, and 664 lb-ft. of torque. Its weight of 3 tons isn’t a problem as it can still accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds. Turbo-lag is practically nonexistent.

Rolls Royce Cullinan

This is the car of the wealthy. It is aptly named the Cullinan, after the infamous gargantuan diamond of 3106.8 carats. It is perfect for flaunting off the main roads as well as taking adventurous trails. This 4×4 SUV is right on trend as everyone is preferring cars for adventurous escapades. This car is said to be a strong contender against Bentley Bentayga, Lamborghini Urus, Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged, Mercedes AMG-G65, Porsche Cayenne Turbo, and Bell 206 Jet Ranger.

This 210.3-inch SUV has the Rolls Royce trademark of 12 cylinders and strong first impressions. The large 22-inch wheels can still give you a smooth ride with the updated self-leveling air suspension. Its eight-speed automatic, 563-hp V-12, 627 lb-ft of torque, and brakes are all tuned for smoothness; even at 3 tons, the engine purrs quietly. It retails for $420,325.

It has a spacious interior that has luxury spilled all over it, with wooden trims and a panoramic windshield. The doors can be opened and closed with the use of buttons, as if having an invisible chauffeur. The five-seat option is perfect for a family while the four-seat one has reclining and massaging seats.

Rolls Royce Dawn

This two-door convertible is an eye-candy. The wheelbase is derived from the Wraith except slightly longer and hence more spacious. It has no problems with steep curves and is a good companion in traffic. It has a BMW-derived 6.6L twin turbocharged V-12 engine and 593 hp. Despite being heavier and essentially less powerful than the Wraith, it makes up for it with seamless acceleration. The Dawn is priced at $340,000.

 

Worried that these cars are too pricey for your budget? Worry no more because you can still get the premium experience through car rentals! Contact a nearby dealer who can hook you up with the hottest 2019 Rolls Royce wheels.
