It's never too early to get a hobby, especially if said hobby involves spending your hard-earned money on beautiful, high-performance cars that can then form the basis of a future collection. Just ask Sophie Turner.
The actress, known best to fans as Queen of the North Sansa Stark on the hit series Games of Thrones but also as Jean Grey from the latest X-Men film franchise, is what you might call a budding collector. Though she never makes a point of showing off her purchases on social media (actors are not like rappers, after all!), she does occasionally offer a glimpse or two when she's feeling generous.
This is one such time, though her fans are saying she must also be feeling slightly revengeful.
In her most recent social media post, which comes right after her going Instagram official with her new boyfriend Peregrine Pearson, heir to the 4th Viscount Cowdray, she's presumably busting out her "revenge dress," very a la Princess Diana post divorce from the now-King Charles. Turner herself is going through divorce after ending her 4-year marriage to Joe Jonas of The Jonas Brothers last summer.
Celebrity gossip aside, perhaps the most striking part of the revenge dress post is the incredible visual Turner was able to create. She did this by matching the bodycon dress to her brand new 2023 Range Rover Sport, all blacked-out and in perfect harmony with her all-black outfit. The visuals are glossy, gorgeous, moody, and why, yes, a bit vampy in a very revengeful way.

For all those times when female celebrities are criticized for turning gorgeous vehicles into photo props, this is one occasion when it's done right. That's probably because of Turner's above-mentioned habit of not shoving her good fortune – and the cars it allows her to buy – down people's throats.
And she does have quite an impressive collection already, as it befits a hot movie star with an estimated net worth of about $12 million. It's eclectic and sophisticated without being extraordinary but enviable nonetheless.
In recent years, Turner has been seen driving a Tesla Model Y, but she also prefers ICE (internal combustion engine) cars as well, like the Cadillac Escalade and her previous daily, which was an older model of the Range Rover Vogue.
Other cars she's been spotted driving include a Porsche Cayenne Turbo S and the BMW i8. The 2023 Range Rover Sport, which starts at $85,000 but can go as high as $125,000 depending on options, should be in fine company in her private garage. Now, unless Turner agrees to do a show like John Cena's upcoming car-centric talk show or a magazine interview on the topic, chances are this is all we'll ever hear about her latest car purchase.
