LeBron James is one of the most accomplished athletes of his time.
The three-time NBA champion has had a storied career in the league so far, and his success has allowed him to indulge in some of his favorite hobbies, like collecting cars. His glamorous collection includes a 1975 Chevy Impala and a custom Lamborghini Aventador.
LeBron James has been called one of the greatest athletes of all time and has the car collection to show for it.
It's no surprise given the shelf of awards he has received during his 16 years (and counting) in the NBA, including two Olympic gold medals, three NBA championships, and four NBA MVP Awards.
These accomplishments, along with his various endorsements and other business ventures, have earned James some large paychecks. In 2018, Forbes estimated James' net worth to be roughly $450 million. Here's the car collection he's spending some of that money on.
LeBron James respects the classics, including his fully restored 1975 Chevy Impala convertible. The original MSRP for a 4-door version of the car in 1975 was $4,215. The list price for the 2020 model is $31,620.
The Ferrari 599 is one of three Ferraris LeBron owns. Production of this model ran from 2006 to 2012. The base MSRP for a new model at the time was $310,543.
LeBron James and his Ferrari F430 Spider was featured in a 2008 episode of "Unique Whips," a television show about celebrities and their cars. The vehicle was customized to fit LeBron's 6'8" frame.
The MSRP for a convertible model in 2009 was $217,310.
LeBron was a Kia Motors luxury ambassador, but claims to have been driving the Kia K900 since before he partnered with the brand. The list price for the most recent model in 2015 was $60,000 at the time of its release.
King James reportedly spent $670,000 on his custom Lamborghini Aventador. James had the car wrapped to match one of his lines of Nike kicks, the LeBron James X1 "King's Pride" floral shoes.
The base price for a 2019 Aventador S Roadster is a cool $460,247.
The Mercedes-Benz Maybach 57 S LeBron owns reportedly has a license plate that reads "KNG OF OH," paying homage to his time with the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The list price of the most recent model in 2012 was $376,300.
The 57S isn't the only Maybach LeBron owns. His S650 has made several appearances on his personal Twitter account. The base price of the 2018 Maybach 650 was $198,700.
Fellow basketball star Dwayne Wade gave the public a peek into his and James' car collection when he posted a picture of their Porsche 911 Turbo S vehicles side-by-side. The base price for a 2019 model is $190,700.
