5 of Donald Trump's coolest cars.
Donald Trump is not only a politician and businessman, but also a true car collector, having owned and continuing to own many dream cars.
1. Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud 1956
Rolls-Royce is one of the two luxury car brands favored by Donald Trump, and the 1956 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud is believed by international media to be the first luxury car Donald Trump ever owned.
According to Rolls-Royce, only 7,000 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud models were produced, and the car owned by Donald Trump is reddish-brown.
In addition to the 1956 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud, Donald Trump purchased a Rolls-Royce Phantom in 2015. It is known that he spent approximately half a million dollars on this model. This was also the car he frequently drove before being elected President of the United States in 2017.
2. Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren - "The Silver Arrow"
The Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren was first introduced in 2003, during the period when the German automaker held a 40% stake in the British supercar brand. In the seven years leading up to its discontinuation in 2010, a total of 2,157 SLRs were sold, comprising two main variants: coupe and roadster.
The Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren uses a supercharged 5.4L V8 engine, producing 626 horsepower and 780 Nm of torque, paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission called AMG Speedshift R with three manual modes. The car can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in just 3.8 seconds before reaching a top speed of 334 km/h.
Donald Trump also once owned a 2003 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, but some sources say he has since sold it.
3. Lamborghini Diablo VT Roadster 1997
Only 132 Lamborghini Diablo VT Roadsters were distributed to the North American market between 1997 and 1999, and Donald Trump's car features a special Blu Le Mans paint scheme that he commissioned.
