‘Highest of highs’: Brad Pitt’s $6m car reveal

Movie superstar Brad Pitt has splurged $2m on an indulgence buy that is part of an ever-growing and increasingly expensive personal collection.

Brad Pitt isn’t just portraying a Formula 1 driver in films — he’s also a true car enthusiast in real life.

The Hollywood star’s collection features a roaring V12 Lamborghini, sleek electric Porsches, luxurious 4x4s and one of the world’s rarest cars.

His car collection itself is estimated to be worth approximately $6.3 million.

Here’s a look inside his extraordinary car collection.

Lamborghini Aventador

One of the most impressive vehicles in his collection is the Lamborghini Aventador, a V12-powered machine capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in approximately three seconds.

It’s unclear which specific version he owns, but with any Aventador, the screaming V-12 engine can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in around 3 seconds.

Aston Martin Vanquish Carbon Edition

Another head-turner in his collection is the Aston Martin Vanquish Carbon Edition, a 2015 model gifted to him by his ex-wife Angelina Jolie.

Audi R8 Spyder

There’s also an Audi R8 Spyder, and it’s pretty easy to see why Brad Pitt owns it.

Packing over 600 horsepower and capable of speeds beyond 320 km/h, it’s a fitting match for someone chasing the F1 thrill even off-set.

Bentley Continental GT

For a touch of British luxury, Pitt has a Bentley Continental GT.

While he’s rarely seen in it, the car is believed to be reserved for special events and award nights.

Porsche Taycan

Brad Pitt has been seen cruising around Hollywood in his 2023 Porsche Taycan.

Depending on the model, the Taycan can have a dual-motor all-wheel drive that’s capable of producing up to 751hp and can accelerate from 0 to 100 in 2.4 seconds.

While it’s unclear which Taycan Pitt owns, photos of him driving it around Los Angeles suggest it could be his new daily vehicle.

Two Tesla Model S

There’s some bad history with one of his two Tesla Model S.

In 2018, one of his two Teslas was involved in a three-car crash in Los Angeles.

The Tesla Model S produces 670HP and has a top speed of around 320 km/h. It can also accelerate from 0 to 100 in just over three seconds.

Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG

Pitt is often seen driving his 2008 Mercedes G-Wagon.

It’s a black Mercedes-Benz G 55 AMG SUV that’s fitted with a 5.5-litre supercharged V8 engine that can do 0-100 km/h in 5.5 seconds.

Audi Q7

Brad Pitt has chosen the Audi Q7 as his go-to vehicle for picking up his kids and everyday tasks.

It’s a popular choice among many celebrities and can do 0-100 in 7.7 seconds with its 280hp engine.

Prices for the Audi Q7 start from just above $100,000 for the 45 TDI that generates 170kW from its turbo diesel engine.

BMW Hydrogen 7

This could be Pitt’s rarest car in his collection.

The BMW Hydrogen 7 has a unique engine, allowing drivers to switch between hydrogen gas and petrol.

These were built between 2005 and 2007 as part of BMW’s exploration of hydrogen-powered vehicles, and only 100 were ever produced.

The car has been described as a “green flex” given it’s astronomical price tag.

It’s said to be worth around $2m.

He was last seen driving this car while attending the premiere of Ocean’s 13.

‘HIGHEST OF HIGHS’

A month on from the release of his F1 film, Brad Pitt has opened up about his behind-the-scenes racing experience, sharing which legendary Formula One circuit left him “breathless”.

While reviews of the movie have been mixed, it’s clear that Pitt received a front-row seat to one of the world’s most prestigious motorsport events.

While filming the F1 movie, he drove on various race tracks that comprise the Formula 1 calendar.

And now Brad Pitt has opened up and shared his experience on which Formula 1 track left him feeling the “highest of highs”.

During a recent podcast interview with Tom Clarkson on Beyond The Grid, Pitt opened up about his new-found appreciation for the world’s most iconic circuits like Silverstone and Abu Dhabi.

However, there was one track that made him feel completely different from the rest.

And that crown belongs to Belgium’s Spa-Francorchamps, commonly referred to as Spa.

“But the high of highs? Spa. Oh my god! 4.3 miles, 100-metre elevation … It’s such a smooth, graceful feeling,” Brad Pitt said.

“And then of course, Eau Rouge, we went to the bottom of Eau Rouge, turned behind, looked up the hill and waited.

“Fernando Alonso went by, and it literally sucks the air out of your lungs. It is unbelievable. It is unbelievable.

“That was that same weekend we were driving, I’d been out, but I wasn’t doing what Fernando was doing!”
