Tyga

Tyga continues with his addiction to luxury cars with this classic Rolls-Royce

 

Tyga is getting quite a name for himself in the luxury car world. Photos of him standing along side his recently purchased black Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, also nick named the ‘batmobile’, circulated a few weeks back and now we are seeing him constantly posting on Instagram with his classic Rolls-Royce

Tyga is getting more and more attracted to the classic Rolls-Royce, considering he keeps posting images with a 1959 model on his Instagram. We all know how important the British luxury car is for all these rappers nowadays, who compete each other with the number of Wraiths and Ghosts they own, but in Tyga’s case it looks more like an obsession if you ask us.

Michael Ray Nguyen-Stevenson, known by his stage name Tyga, really wants it all, even though some things should remain for the connaisseurs. Since it’s owned by BMW AG, the Rolls-Royce models seem like they’ve turned into rappers’ favorite luxury coupe. We get that. But what we can’t agree with, is having the old school British ones also touched by this trend.

In the picture Tyga recently posted on social media, we can see a 1959 model, which means we’re talking about the Silver Cloud II. Even though it had little changes on the exterior, as opposed to his predecessor this model came with a 6.2-liter V8 engine, which pushed the weight to 2.11 tones. Performance was greatly improved and top speed was raised to 114 mph (183 km/h). The main improvements came with the acceleration and torque, while power steering became standard and electrically operated windows were now available as an option.

After all, this car makes you feel like the head of state, but that is only because kings and queens all over the world owned these sort of luxury limousines. We understand how rappers nowadays feel better when associated with gangsters, even though most of them are surrounded by bodyguards 24/7 and still play GTA on playstation. But seriously, nobody should joke around with the classics like these fellow wants to.

“Batmobile” Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren bought by Tyga

When one celebrity buys themselves an outrageously expensive and customised luxury car, you can be sure that another will desperately want it!

In the world of the famous and rich, super expensive and stunningly fast cars have become more of the routine than the shocking moments. It’s the case of this murdered-out black Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, also nicknamed the “Batmobile” SLR, that was owned for a couple of months by Scott Disick only to be now bought by Tyga.

While normal people save-up for the every-day rides, celebrities keep switching their hundreds of dollars rides between each other and they don’t even realize it.

Reality television celebrity and businessman Scott Disick, better known as Kourtney Kardashian’s spouse, posted a couple of pictures with the black Mercedes-Benz SLR quoting he owns it, a couple of months ago. Soon after it turned out he decided to sell it and now it was just bought by rapper Tyga. Los Angeles-based Calabasas Luxury Motorcars auto shop, the place he bought it from, recently posted an image of the rapper sitting next to it.

After all, this on and off/selling and buying super expensive and luxurious cars it’s not even that rare among famous people. In fact, when you say Scott Disick you think of flamboyant class and exclusive car-collection, about the same words that pop-up when you talk about Tyga’s rides.

Well, it seems Justin Bieber’s close friend decided to buy the “Batmobile” SLR just because it’s sitting pretty in his driveway, right next to his Rolls Royce Ghost, Lambroghini Aventador, Maybach and his other Mercedes, the SLS.
