Karim Benzema's garage A 7 million euro luxury car collection
When you think of a player of the highest level, you immediately think of the trophies and how much the football career we have contributed to increasing the bank account zeros. When it comes to Karim Benzema, however, the size is completely different. In the field of Coco - as all his friends have called him since the time of the Academy of Olympique Lyonnais - he is one of the most technical center forward in the world; off the field, Karim is simply a millionaire enjoying his assets (estimated between 40 and 50 million euros in 2020).
Fashion is one of its main focuses, along with music, but neither equals the passion for luxury cars of the 32-year-old Real Madrid striker. His garage in 2018 was worth 3.7 million euros. Not bad, you say. In the following two years, however, the value of the same has tripled, thanks to some rather important grafts. In the car collection of the French of Algerian origins there are in no particular order: a Mercedes, a McLaren, three Lamborghinis, a Ferrari, a Rolls Royce, three Audi and two Bugatti.
Mercedez-Benz SLR McLaren Stirling Moss
Let's start in silence, but not too much. This jewel was made in only 75 units and is dedicated to the great pilot Stirling Moss. The 650 hp V8 engine pushes it up to a maximum of 350 km/h and the journey from 0 to 100 km/h is covered in 3.5 seconds. The Stirling Moss SLR is sold only to selected customers: to have it, in fact, you must already have a basic McLaren SLR and pay € 850,000 to take it home.
Ferrari 458 Spyder
A great classic in every self-respecting football garage. The pearl of Maranello is slightly more inflated than those of other colleagues in the department, but not having it available represents an insult to wealth. Also because, in the end, it costs very little: 230,000 euros. Messi, Ozil and Neymar have the same fire red fireball in their garage.
Rolls Royce Wraith
Starting after a Bugatti brace is tough, but Lamborghini's hat-trick is a good way to get your eyes back. Three different cars, three similar prices for a total value that is close to one million euros for one of the most incredible hat tricks of KB's career. The colors are unusual: the Urus, the youngest, is a classic yellow; the Aventador is red, aggressive as it should be; the Huracan Spyder is completely black.
Mercedes-Benz AMG G63
Leaving the Lamborghini Urus as the garage's only SUV is insensitive. Karim, therefore, places one of the most (pre) powerful Mercedes cars in the class next to the majestic product of the Bologna-based San'Agata car manufacturer. The Mercedes AMG G63 is a 585-horsepower specimen, a car of enormous dimensions capable of doing 0 to 100 km/h in just over 4 seconds. All for the modest sum of 160,000 euros.
Audi gifts
One of Real Madrid's main sponsors is Audi. To those who wear the camiseta blanca, the Ingolstadt house gives the car they prefer. In addition, with every trophy raised, Audi spoils the players with some new toys just baked from Germany. Considering that Benzema with the blancos has won 4 Champions League and two championships, the "secondary" garage must be full of Audi. In fact Karim boasts an RS6, a Q8 and an RS3, just something to go shopping comfortably.
