DJ Khaled is one of the most popular celebrities in the world. He is arguably the hottest music producer in the industry. Thanks to his upbeat brand and collaborations with the likes of Justin Bieber, Drake, and Rihanna, his albums are often right at the top of the Billboard. Thus, the American DJ has nicknamed himself "Billboard Billy": a fitting name for an artist who is the epitome of success.
Thanks to his unparalleled success in the music industry and plenty of other secondary endeavors - such as real estate, restaurants, a publishing company, and more - DJ Khaled is among the richest celebs in the world. For a man as rich as DJ Khaled, it isn't surprising that he owns a bunch of crazy expensive cars. That's right. The American DJ's car collection is well and truly extraordinary, and very few celebs can rival his collection. It is almost as if the star is addicted to expensive automobiles: Rolls-Royce cars in particular. Here's a quote from one of his interviews with Forbes: "You can want a Hyundai if that’s what you want. Me, I want a Rolls-Royce. That’s what I want, and that’s because we the best." His loyalty towards the Rolls-Royce brand is unshakeable. Hence, it is no surprise that he owns a bunch of super-expensive RR cars; the likes of Ghost Series II, Dawn, Phantom III, Drophead Coupe. However, none of them can match the aura of DJ Khaled's favorite Rolls-Royce. We're talking about the super expensive Rolls-Royce Wraith that DJ Khaled houses in his garage. He's been spotted flaunting his special edition Rolls-Wraith Black Badge on a number of occasions.
Let's take a deep dive and find out what the American DJ's Rolls-Royce Wraith is all about.
Stars On The Roof
The Rolls-Royce Wraith is an apt car for a man - in this case, DJ Khaled - who loves all things lavish. The American DJ's Wraith costs in excess of a mind-boggling quarter of a million. But, believe it or not, this special Rolls-Royce is the least expensive RR that Khaled owns.
Here's another excerpt from DJ Khaled's Forbes interview: "I want the drop-top Dawn. I want a Wraith with stars on the roof. I want Phantoms with footrests to massage my toes." And knowing his personality, you know when he says something, he's actually going to go ahead and do it. His Rolls-Royce Wraith indeed has stars on the roof. But there's more to his Rolls-Royce Wraith than just "stars on the roof". His Wraith's interiors are posh, luxurious, and spacious - leather seats and trim that induce a royale vibe, a ride experience that makes the fluffiest of pillows seem harsh, a calm and serene cabin, no matter what speed the Wraith is running at - as you'd expect from a car that DJ Khaled owns. His Wraith is as impressive on the outside, as it is on the inside. The music producer's Wraith model is a sight to behold. A part of the "Discover Bespoke" initiative, Khaled's Wraith is a 2017 Black Badge model that has been designed with utmost attention to detail. It sports an all-blue - Arabian-Blue, to be very precise - paint job that is attractive enough to turn plenty of heads, whether it is standing still or taking on the streets. It is a result of the thoughtful design of the Rolls-Royce Bespoke Team. Hence, it is hardly a surprise that it looks as gorgeous as it does.
A Modern Day Marvel
DJ Khaled's Rolls-Royce Wraith is a modern-day marvel. The full-sized luxury car is assembled in the UK. Its chassis is inspired by another Rolls-Royce beast - the Rolls-Royce Ghost. It has a 6.6-liter twin-turbocharged V12 engine at its heart. The powerful engine is capable of generating 640 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque at 1500-5500 rpm. The engine is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission, and an RWD drive-train to deliver enhanced performance. The fuel economy is an estimated average of 16.1 mpg (13 mpg for city travel and 21 mpg for highways). The frame of this Rolls-Royce model is a two-door pillar-less coupe with "coach doors", where the windows roll down, just like any other special convertible. The front of the Wraith boasts sturdy P255/45R20 tires with disc brakes and an independent, pneumatic, double-wishbone suspension. The rear showcases P285/40R20 tires with disc brakes and an independent, multi-link suspension. The Arabian-Blue Wraith is perfect for Khaled's long drive adventures and weekend getaways thanks to its enormous fuel tank that can store 18 gallons of fuel at a time. The Wraith's acceleration is super impressive - it can go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just 4.6 seconds. With an impressive top speed of 155 miles per hour, it is undoubtedly one of the quickest cars in its class.
DJ Khaled's Least Expensive Rolls-Royce
As we've stated earlier, despite all the supreme features, the Rolls-Royce Wraith is the least expensive Rolls-Royce that DJ Khaled houses inside his garage. Khaled snapped the 2017 Rolls-Royce Wraith model at a staggering price of $285,000. However, that's nothing compared to other Rolls-Royce models that he owns - the likes of 2016 Rolls-Royce Ghost Series II ($311,900), 2017 Rolls-Royce Dawn ($341,125), 2018 Rolls-Royce Phantom VIII ($450,000), 2017 Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe ($533,000) - all of them considerably expensive compared to his Wraith. DJ Khaled has spoken plenty of times about his love for the Wraith model and it is undoubtedly the jewel in the crown when one talks about his crazy car collection.
