Cristiano Ronaldo Currently Drives a Range Rover Sport SVR and S65 AMG Coupe

Audi insisted on showing every Real player with one of its fast cars during 2015, including Cristiano Ronaldo. However, we know this star athlete isn't the type who appreciates the discreet style of the S8 or its safe quattro AWD.

We did a quick check on his Instagram account. Not surprisingly, the rides he's proud of are among the fastest and most powerful you can buy right now. After purchasing a Rolls-Royce Ghost, the shooter fell in love with the all-new Mercedes S-Class Coupe, the largest and sexiest coupe offered by the German automaker.

It gets you the same respect as the S-Class sedan but in a much sleeker 2-door body. When we tested it, Mercedes could only offer us an S500 with AWD, but Ronaldo has the best of the best, an S65 AMG. Under the hood of this beast is a 6-liter twin-turbo V12 that's hand-built by AMG engineers. It sends 630 horsepower to the rear wheels and is one of the few cars out there that needs its torque electronically limited to 1000 Nm.

We'd also mention the fact that it costs a quarter of a million euros, being one of the most expensive cars made by Mercedes. However, this still just 2% of Ronaldo's annual paycheck.

She is by no means a sportscar, weighing a hefty 2.2 tons. However, the coupe will reach 100 km/h (62 mph) in only 4.1 seconds. Roughly the same words can be used to describe Ronaldo's new SUV. Three weeks ago, he posted a photo of a gray on black Range Rover Sport SVR. It's distinguished by its body kit and the fact that it's the fastest, most powerful car ever made by Land Rover.

We've seen Ronaldo in both a white and a black S65 AMG. So either he has two of them or somebody is taking care of his constant car needs. The irony is that this multi-millionaire is so famous that he gets free cars from major automakers. That's what happens when you have roughly as many followers on Instagram as Kim Kardashian.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
