Dana White | Plymouth Barracuda

Dana White is a entrepreneur best known for being the President of the UFC (mixed martial arts organization). Before White became the UFC’s President, he was an amateur boxer and trainer, and from the look of his ride, he still likes to pack a punch.

An old school muscle car with black rims and retro paint job do it for me.

C.J. Wilson | McLaren P1

MLB All-Star and Los Angeles Angels pitcher, C.J. Wilson knows all about exotic car ownership. Despite selling a lot of his auto arsenal, the car addict is still left with a McLaren MP4-12C, an ultra-rare Carerra GT, as well as other Porsches and Ferraris.

Wilson’s pockets are deep but this isn’t always enough to secure ownership of all exotics. After experiencing the way in which Ferrari operate after buying his 599 GTB Fiorano, Wilson vowed to never own a Ferrari again. Although he had the cash on him to buy a brand new Ferrari 360, the Italian company wouldn’t sell him one.

Lucky for Wilson, he’s always had a soft spot for McLaren going back to the days of Aryton Senna. When Wilson heard the rumours about a new McLaren hypercar, he went straight to his McLaren guy and managed to secure a spot on the 375 place list. McLaren simply wanted a cool $1.15M and list of the previous cars he had owned (one being their MP4-12C), and voila, they accepted and Wilson now owns this 903-bhp space fighter.

Here we see Wilson testing the P1, along with all the other lucky owners invited by McLaren to see just what they are getting for their money.

Jon Olsson | Audi RS6 Wagon

Jon Olsson is a Swedish pro skier who’s talents have seen him perform in the World Cup and the Winter Olympics. Boosting his career and profile further, Olsson has also skied in the Winter X Games, where he has taken nine medals.

Aside from his Lamborghini Gallardo and Murcielago LP-670 SV, Olsson has proven his love for cars by running in the Gumball 3000 rally in his murdered-out Audi R8.

Keeping it German, Olsson has just purchased a 2014 Audi RS6 Avant with custom wrap. His new Audi is just the latest in a long list of high-performance cars which have gone through Jon’s garage.

In traditional Jon Olsson style, he swiftly had his new RS6 Avant wrapped grey, black and white camouflage. Before he takes final delivery of it, Jon will have the crew at Stertman Motorsport work their magic on the German super wagon with a Milltek exhaust system the first update on Jon’s planned modification list.

Mark Webber | Porsche GT3 RS 4.0

Although Mark Webber raced his last F1 race with Red Bull Racing in Brazil this season, he is going on to race in the Porsche Cup series. This is a good thing as Webber has Porsches in his collection.

This GT3 RS 4.0 is one of 600 grass roots racers and is best suited for a track session, perhaps when Webber has something to get out of his system. As for his daily driver, this Aussie has the luxury of a very quick white 612-bhp GT2 RS.

Fernando Alonso | Maserati GranCabrio

Fernando Alonso will make a few more appearances on here as he has a few beauties tucked away in his garage. This Spanish champion won both of his titles with Renault, and after a brief stint with McLaren in 2009 and falling out with Lewis Hamilton, he is now very much a part of Scuderia Ferrari.

This is one of Alonso’s latest orders, a stunning Maserati GranCabrio. Pretty much standard but you can’t really go wrong with a Maser.

Felipe Massa | Ferrari 599

Felipe Massa is a Brazilian Formula 1 driver who up until the end of this season is best known for his role as a driver for Scuderia Ferrari. In 2008, having won the Brazilian GP and final round of the season, he just needed Lewis Hamilton to finish 6th or less to win the World Championship by a single point. It was raining hard and Hamilton dropped down the field and scrambled to get back. Massa’s family were caught on film prematurely and embarrassingly celebrating as Hamilton just managed to take fifth on the final corner of the race.

Massa is set to drive for Williams in 2014 and will be glad to drive for himself and not play second fiddle to the likes of his former teammates, Michael Schumacher, Kimi Raikkonen and Fernando Alonso.

Driving for the most famous name in racing obviously has its benefits. Massa owns this race spec 599 and another standard 599 as a daily driver.

Jenson Button | Mercedes C63 AMG DR520 Wagon

2009 World Champion Jenson Button didn’t see much success throughout most of his career with Honda Racing. In 2008 the Japanese team were about to fold until they were bailed out by F1 brain Ross Brawn at the last minute. Brawn GP was born, a team whose cars dominated the entire season, whereupon Button claimed the world championship title.

Now with McLaren, Jenson drives this limited edition Mercedes Wagon. I think powerful wagons are super cool, especially this subtle flat paint finish. It makes for one hell of a sleeper, and for that reason, I’ll score it accordingly.

Adrian Sutil | Porsche 911 Turbo


Force India driver, Adrian Sutil is a German with a penchant for German technology. Despite not being in the fastest car on the grid, Sutil has proved to be a very fast driver, however, consistency and a tendency to be at the wrong end of a stewards enquiry has let him down. When he’s not lapping in a Force India, Sutil loves taking his Techart Porsche 911 Turbo out for a thrashing. This is one of a handful of Porsches he currently owns.

Rio Ferdinand | Porsche Cayenne

Rio Ferdinand is centre-back for English premier side Manchester United. He has earned 81 caps for England whilst plating in defence between 1997 and 2011.

After a hard training session, what better way to return home than in a Porsche Cayenne? Many cars have passed through Rio’s garage throughout his career and he knows a thing or two about car ownership. Not happy with a standard Porsche Cayenne, Rio has gone for this tasteful Magnum Techart addition over the multitudes available.
