Simon Cowell, the X Factor judge and all around Mr Nice Guy, is carving a bit of a name for himself in the world of supercars. Cowell’s wide ranging tastes in luxury motoring almost rivals that of Clarkson and his knowledge of performance cars. With a penchant for blunt truth telling and flamboyance, it seeps through to his choice of the cars. Take a look at the 4shades of Simon Cowell’s car collection:
Porsche Precision
Cowell is probably joining one of around 918 potential buyers of the Porsche Spyder 918, a stunning hybrid car that is going to retail for well over half a million pounds. With all of that X Factor spare change and an American Idol judging in his past, we are willing to be to bet a few quid that Simon will be able to splash out on this unique Porsche which is due in 2014.
Fierce Ferrari
The ferocious engines of Ferrari tickled Simon Cowell’s fancy: the music executive has been spotted out by the paparazzi in a black Ferrari 360. Ferrari’s attention to detail from the interior to the exterior no doubt matches Cowell’s focus on execution and talent.
Bentley Brilliance
You know you’ve made it as a celebrity when you are driving a Bentley. The Crewe-based motor marque can count Cowell as one of their customers after Cowell was seen driving the Azure, a popular model from Bentley.
Audacious Audi
Simon Cowell is said to have splurged on an Audi R8, the superstar car which is loved by footballers. The Audi R8 matches up to Cowell’s exacting standards: it can go from 0 – 60 mph in only 4.6 seconds. The Audi R8 is definitely the car of choice for powerful moguls and mega-stars, something which Simon Cowell is since forging his entertainment empire.
Most people cannot quite keep up with this extravagant list of cars as a personal collection, but with an equally superb collection of performance cars on our fleet, you can at least have a taster with a supercar rental from Signature Car Hire.
