Football, the most famous sport in the world enjoys follower-ship more than any sport and when it comes to cars, the top notch here have their way of showing it off. Their game gets them the  fame, which gets them the moolah to enable them to buy just about anything they desire, and they do. These people spend amounts that are insane for us, and buy the tastiest rides out there on sale. 

Thierry Henry

This Classy French striker, who made it big playing for the British football club Arsenal, is known to get down to business with a highly unique and exhilarating style. Much like his collection of cars it is . He owns an Aston Martin Vanquish S,A rather modest but fiery Renault Clio Sport , a Lincoln Navigator SUV , also the Anglo-German hypercar SLR McLaren  and that’s not all. The highlight of his collection is a very special  Porsche Carrera GT, one of the 1270 of its kind ever made, equipped with a monstrous V10 engine with a 5733cc displacement and a hand-crafted carbon fiber monocoque chassis, that would have set him back by $440,000. Too much? well, not for him.

Cristiano Ronaldo

This 25 year old football star has been playing some of the best football in his last few years of his career, which earned him FIFA footballer of year -2007 award, the most coveted award for any footballer in the world. His fleet of cars are certainly no less impressive, take for example his $443,000 Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupé that boasts a 6.75 liter V12, quite a ride isn’t it? but that’s a start he also has a Porsche Cayenne Turbo, and for his daily runaround a Bentley Continental GT Speed parked in his garage. Also , not to mention the complimentary Audi R8 that he got from the endorsement deal with Audi. Its sad that he no longer has the Ferrari 599 GTB thanks to the infamous crash close to the Manchester Airport and also the numerous cars that he sold in the past. Lets hope his recently ordered $1.6 million, Bugatti Veyron does not share the same fate.

 
Lionel Messi

Being the best certainly has its advantage, and Messi has touched this mark a little early than most in his career with his tomcat like speed and crazy skills. Destined to be one of the greatest and with all those fat paychecks, he like any other Star loves to spend his money to buy some of the coolest cars available. Messi’s garage is filled up with cars like Dodge Charger SRT8 – Orange, Maserati 2009 in black  , a Lexus 4×4 , the hard-to-ignore Audi Q7 , and the spotlight of this impressive collection is a silver Ferrari F430  Spider which uses  a 4.3-liter V8 engine , and does a 0-100 Kmph in 3.6 seconds. Fast enough ? we think so!

David beckham

Football’s very own king of bling shows everyone how to live it up in style when it comes to cars. The man owns an extravagant fleet of cars, which he changes regularly.He once owned an Aston Martin DB7, with the registration plate ‘DB7′.He drives his gorgeous open-top Aston Martin Vantage V8 in Madrid when going out with his wife Victoria while back in Manchester, he uses his gleaming Rolls Royce Phantom to pop out for his weekly shop. One of Beck’s latest acquisitions was a $206,400 Lamborghini Gallardo which he wasted no time putting through its paces, a colossal $103,200 and additionally spent $33,800 (£18,000) on extra lavish accessories. he also owns some ‘sensible’ cars, including a Mercedes S500 and a $312,080 (£166,000) Bentley Arnage which boasts a 6.75-L V8 engine . Hold on to your breath, this gets better-  a custom built Ferrari 360 Spyder costing around $215,550 , a Ferrari 550M, a Porsche 911, a Range Rover Vogue, an Aston Martin DB7, a Lincoln Navigator, a TVR Cerbera, Porsche 911 Turbo cabriolet on which he spent an extra $150,000 on its customization, a Land Rover 4.6 HSE, a Chrysler Grand Voyager, a Jaguar XKR and a bunch of armor plated BMWs (750i, 540i, X5) and a  Porsche Boxster too. PHEW!

Didier Drogba

The Côte d’Ivoire(Formerly Ivory coast) national is the highest ever scorer for their football team and also one of the highest ever for his club, Chelsea. Now, this kind of a portfolio isn’t cheap and so it is. With all the money , he is more than willing to shell off big amounts on anything that catches his eye. The star currently owns a Porsche 911 Turbo, Ferrari 430, Porsche Cayenne, Mercedes McLaren SLR convertible and a little odd for this kind of line-up, The Mini Cooper S.

Wayne Rooney

Despite of England’s early exit from  the World Cup, he remains one of the most prolific goal-scorers around and is Manchester United’s primary striker. The no. of endorsements that he has , and his payroll is more than just enough to enable him to have one of the most expensive arsenal(wonder how he’d like the sound of that) of cars among his fellows. It includes an imported Cadillac Escalade, a BMW X5,an Audi RS6 wagon(the fastest wagon in the world),an Aston Martin Vanquish S and above all, oh yeah, a lamborghini gollardo spyder . Oh and he also bought his girl friend a Porsche 911!
