Johnny Depp is a global superstar. A versatile artist, he has been a part of the movie industry for over three decades and has entertained audiences as an actor, producer, and musician.
Depp is one of the richest actors in the world and it's no secret that he is an automobile lover. Among expensive properties, a luxury yacht, an island, a village, a private aircraft, a penthouse, and other things, Depp is a proud owner of a number of expensive cars. His collection is enviable. Depp's personal garage is reportedly occupied by 45 luxury cars.
Let's have a look at some of the stand-out cars that Johnny Depp drives.
Rolls Royce Wraith
The bold style-statement of a personality as celebrated as Johnny Depp can seldom be reflected on an object or a property he happens to own. While Depp has been in the headlines for reasons other than acting, it is no secret that the bigwig of Hollywood knows how to get his cars right.
The Rolls Royce Wraith that the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star often rolls in, is a reflection of his dynamic appeal and exquisite charm. The hyper-dynamic, master-crafted SUV has a top speed of 155 miles-per-hour. It is powered by a 6.6-liter V12 engine which enables a 60 miles-per-hour speed in 4.4 seconds. It comes loaded with advanced features such as an on-board voice control system, satellite navigation, real-time traffic information, eight-speed automatic transmission, USB connectivity, and more. With a fuel capacity of 83 liters, Alice can travel to wonderland without worrying about her fuel running out.
At the time of its release, the Wraith was launched as the world's most powerful Rolls Royce. A bold statement of intent but not surprising considering the very high standards the brand has maintained over the years. But there's more to this monster SUV than just robust features and power. It is the ultimate combination of style, drama, and pace. It has been crafted with style and precision; one look at the interiors and it's evident that the Wraith is unlike any other luxury car. It reportedly cost Depp around $330,000 at the time of purchase.
2015 Range Rover
Next up is the 2015 Range Rover. This bad boy has a top speed of 162 miles-per-hour. Its powerful engine enables a 60 miles-per-hour speed in 4.5 seconds. The 2015 base model features a high-end, 8-speed automatic transmission. Other key features include 16-way adjustable seats, an adaptive dynamics system that monitors vehicle movements, and a four-corner air suspension. It is smart, beautiful, big, and fits about 5 people.
While the 2015 Range Rover has been criticized for its below-average cargo capacity, tricky infotainment system, and overall cost, there's no doubt that it is still one of the best off-roaders in the market. Land Rovers are known for their style and prowess and the 2015 Range Rover is no different. The expensive car that Depp purchased in 2015 was among one of many Depp assets that grabbed headlines when he separated from his wife Amber Heard.
1959 Corvette
Everybody knows that that the Chevrolet Corvette is the long-standing beacon of motor racing, and it is no surprise that the design and features of the 1959 Corvette are tailor-made for motor racing. Johnny Depp being an automobile lover also owns one of these vintage Corvettes. He owns the Corvette, courtesy of a gift from producer Graham King. King gifted Depp the vintage sports car as a token of appreciation for his performance in 'The Rum Diary'. When the movie hit the theatres in 2011, the 1959 Corvette was one of the talking points apart from Depp and the star cast.
The retro sports car is like the finest of wines; red in color and gets better with time. The vintage luxury car is stylish and durable. Unlike other cars, its body is crafted from fiber-glass and plastic - three times thicker than steel. Yet, it weighs almost half when compared to a steel body. Lightweight, strong, and safe, the Corvette is as good as they come. It has a top speed of 128 miles-per-hour. Much has been written and said about the second-to-none looks of the Corvette. It's impossible not to get distracted, every time this vintage car passes by. It's a special beauty adored by car lovers all around the world. The 1959 Corvette also appears to be Depp's favorite car as he has been photographed driving this beauty on countless occasions.
Depp's car collection is stupendous and he drives some of the best luxury cars in the world. Reportedly, millions of dollars have been spent on his personal garage and it's no surprise given the caliber of supercars that he owns. Like Depp himself, his luxury cars grab constant attention from the paparazzi, and it's not hard to understand why.
