The illustrious journey of Porsche began in 1931, and the brand still rules the automobile industry with its classic, high-performance sports cars. Considered a symbol of luxury and fame, the Porsche is an experience in itself.
Porsche car enthusiasts can be found far and wide across the globe, including some famous Hollywood celebrities. The brand’s popularity represents years of hard work and ingenuity of the creators and their use of the latest technology that has successfully improved car performance with every new launch.
Here are some Hollywood celebrities that drive Porsche cars with style and panache.
Keanu Reeves
Famous Matrix actor always loved Porsche as a kid, a deep love that was inspired by a toy car that his grandmother presented him with. Reeves is an avid collector of Porsches. He owned a Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (Type 993), which was stolen from his home.
The same year, Porsche created a custom 911 Carrera 4S, especially for Reeves. Winner of the 2002 Celebrity Race at the Toyota Grand Prix, Reeves loves driving sports cars and wants to be a race car driver.
Reeves currently owns a stunning collection of cars and motorcycles, including a Porsche 911 and other Porsches.
Patrick Dempsey
You probably know Patrick Dempsey as a doctor on ABC shows “Grey Anatomy,” but his other claim to fame is a stellar collection of Porsche cars. Considered to own the best collection of Porsches in the world, this car enthusiast has excellent taste when it comes to cars.
He bought his first 1963 Porsche 356 during his acting career, and there was no looking back for him from then on. He currently owns 911 models like the Targa, Turbo, and the GT3 RS.
Just like Reeves, Dempsey loves racing cars and also races for Porsche in Le Mans.
Jerry Seinfeld
Comedian Jerry Seinfeld is a true car enthusiast who owns one of the most extensive car collections in the world, consisting of 100 cars, including a Porsche 959 and other Porsches. You can get a glimpse of his love for cars in his Netflix show, “Comedians in Cars.”
Every episode of his show begins with an exquisite car that Seinfeld lovingly describes to his viewers. Among his favorite brands of cars is Porsche, and he has been known to own 46 of them at one point!
Mariah Carey
The diva is the proud owner of a customized Porsche Cayenne SUV. The car has been painted in hot pink, which is Carey’s favorite color. Even Cayenne’s interior has been customized to suit her personality perfectly. From her initials MCC embroidered on the headrest to the premium Alpine audio system, every little detail is befitting the famous singer.
Gwen Stefani
This iconic singer is no stranger to chic and luxurious cars. Known for her expensive taste, she owns a customized Porsche Panamera. While most versions of this car cost around $100,000, Gwen’s Porsche isn’t ordinary and costs almost twice the amount.
