P.K. Subban – Bugatti Veyron

The Montreal Canadiens drafted this professional ice hockey defenceman back in 2017. After he won the Norris Trophy as the NHL’s top defenceman, he signed up for a $72 million, 8-year contract with the Canadiens. In 2019, he was traded to the New Jersey Devils, and as credit for his performance, he was given a tribute video on the match held on December 7. He was only 24 when he signed up with the Canadiens, and he did not seem to worry about money. He donated $10 million to the Montreal Children’s Hospital, P.K., after which he patted himself on the back by buying a two-tone Black and Cherry red Bugatti Veyron, estimated to be at $2.25 million.

Ryan Getzlaf – Mercedes-AMG S63

Ryan loves cars. But with three kids now, the Anaheim Ducks captain decided to focus his investments somewhere else. So he is no longer seen all that much in his Ferrari 458 Italia. He also sold his Lamborghini Gallardo at an auction for $95,000. With a larger family to consider, he opted to purchase a luxury sedan, a Mercedes – AMG S63. The vehicle can sit his three children comfortably while still offering that classy look typical of a Mercedes. With an annual salary of $9.25 million per year, Ryan could definitely afford to splurge on his beloved family.

Steven Stamkos – Fisker Karma

With a net worth of $14 million, you would expect Steven to purchase a more extravagant car. But as an athlete who also loves the environment, he chose to buy a hybrid car that would not consume that much gas. His 2012 Fisker Karma is the vehicle he had been driving around since he purchased it. If the Tampa Bay Lightning captain is eco-conscious, he could perhaps consider the Tesla Model S, an all-electric car that is touted as being friendly to the environment. But his American-made Fisker Karma, with its electric range of 32 miles, is more than cool.

Evgeni Malkin – Porsche Cayenne

A Russian falling in love with a German? Why not? Such is the case of Evgeni Malkin who has fallen in love with Porsche cars. Back in Russia, German cars are considered as status symbols. Because of that, he has been seen driving around in a super-fast Porsche 911 Turbo. But nowadays, he prefers his Porsche Cayenne. This SUV has a V8 engine, packing much-needed power when on the road. The Cayenne is also the first off-road vehicle manufactured by Porsche after the Super and Junior tractors back in the 1950s. With a net worth of $50 million, Evgeni could surely afford to buy more Porsche vehicles and pay for the insurance premiums that the expensive cars come with.

Nick Bonino – Bentley Continental GTC SuperSport

Nick plays center for the Nashville Predators and true to his brand as a predator, he likes his cars speedy to get ahead of his prey. He used to drive around in an Audi S4, which is given can take credit as a fast car, but he found it somewhat restrained and supple. So he decided to replace it with a Jaguar XF. With aerodynamic efficiency, the car’s supercharged V8 engine, packed with 510 horsepower, makes the car run on pure power and speed. Nick praised the car right after he test-drove it. He said that it rips and that it’s fun to drive.

Ian Kole – 2011 Cadillac CTS-V Coupe SE

This Pittsburgh Penguins defenceman might not be as super-rich as other hockey players, but he does love speed, a common trait among hockey players. Ian Kole likes everything black, as they lend elegance to cars. So he had put in some investments in a 2011 Cadillac CTS-V Coupe special edition that has a powerful 556 horsepower engine. The coupe, as expected, had black windows, rims, and exterior, making for a stealthy design. He also liked that he can turn off the vehicle’s traction control and “Tokyo Drift” around corners. So if you see anyone drifting around bends, it might be Ian Kole.

Kevin Durant – Ferrari California

Keven Durant has three cars that we know about. He owns a Chevy Camaro, a Range Rover, and a red Ferrari California. It appears that his favorite is the California owing to its sleek design. It is topless, extremely fast, loud, and fun. This professional athlete who graduated with a degree in Sociology likes speed as well. His California is fitted with a V8 engine, which, when coupled with excellent aerodynamics, can accelerate from 0 to 62 in just four seconds. And, of course, to keep everyone safe, it’s also been installed with Ferrari’s brand of traction control. We can say that the legend also has legendary cars at his disposal.

Hulk Hogan – Custom 1994 Dodge Viper

The iconic wrestler is retired, but whenever the word “wrestling” appears in a conversation, his name would inevitably come up. He is a legend, an icon of the industry. Over many years, he has also been able to accumulate various investments, including his car collection. This is apart from the record he has set as a ring-fighter. Many have said that his performance at Wrestlemania 6 against Ultimate Warrior was among the greatest in his career. In terms of cars, he decided to custom-design a Dodge Viper. This car was decked with classic Hulk Hogan red and yellow and featured a Hulkster logo in front. As much as he loved it though, he auctioned it off to charity early in 2020. So we can see that behind the muscles is a soft-hearted man.

Kawhi Leonard – 1997 Chevrolet Tahoe

Perhaps he just loves his American car and is loyal to it. So this basketball legend chose to keep his trusted 1997 Chevrolet Tahoe as his choice of vehicle. With Kawhi earning almost $18 million in 2017, he can afford any car he wants but chose not to. Perhaps he was advised by a financial advisor not to purchase vehicles that are too expensive. There is nothing wrong, of course, in not having a new car. He had kept the Tahoe in mint condition anyway. The first-generation Tahoe models were fitted with V8 engines, with power ranging from 180 to 255 horsepower—a very powerful car indeed.

James Harden – Rolls Royce Wraith

The Houston Rockets player can certainly buy any vehicle or house he wants. His annual salary of $28 million can pay the average mortgage many times over. On the car front, however, he chose to stick to just three luxury vehicles, all made from Britain. He currently is a proud owner of a Bentley Bentayga, a Range Rover Sport, and a Rolls Royce Wraith. As with any Rolls Royce car, the Wraith boasts quality and master craftsmanship. This grand tourer can also go from 0 to 60 in just a little over four seconds. His latest car, the Bentayga, first rolled onto the streets in 2016, revealing that Harden does want the best and the latest.
