The car can reach speeds of 100km/h in just a couple of seconds with a top speed of 350km/h. It's a fast one all right. The car isn't cheap and averages at about $400,000.

The Porsche 911 Turbo is a legendary car in its own right. Therefore, it seems only obvious that car enthusiasts would have one in their collection.
Eminem has one and it’s his fourth Porsche, with the rapper seemingly a fan of the luxury car brand. However, it is the Turbo that is often regarded as one of the best Porsches ever made, mostly due to its top speed of 320km/h.
Eminem loves Porsche so much that he even mentions the manufacturing brand in his music, with the song, "W.T.P" poking fun at his former life, "Pull up the club in a Pinto like it's a Porsche. Garage bag on one of the windows, spray-painted doors."

Supposedly, Eminem has his very own McLaren MP4-12C that's just sitting in his garage collecting dust. Although to be fair, it's not really a car to drive to the grocery store.

Eminem and Ford have a bit of a checkered past, mostly down to the fact that Ford went back on a promise to include a Ford Fusion in one of his music videos after Eminem had publicly humiliated some famous celebrities. However, the bad blood hasn't stopped Eminem from purchasing one of their most beloved vehicles, the Ford GT.
For some reason, the Ford GT often gets overlooked when it comes to treating it like a sports car, with Lamborghini, Ferrari and Bugatti usually getting all the attention. However, the Ford GT is just as good and, like most sports cars, can reach 100km/hr in just over three seconds.

In fact, in the song "Love Me" Eminem mentions the vehicle with the line, "911 Porsche same color as cranberry sauce."

What's a car collection without the Audi R8 Spyder? Yes, Eminem currently owns an Audi R8 Spyder, a car that costs over $200,000, while also being a car that doesn't scream glamorous. That's right, even though it's expensive it is still rather laid-back when compared to a Lamborghini. However, in just 3 seconds the car can reach 99km/h, so it's not that laid-back.

Back in the day, the Hummer was a big deal to those in the music industry, with pop stars, rappers, and country fans all seemingly getting in on the act. However, after a while, the world realized that Hummers were actually humungous gas guzzlers and were not only expensive to run but they were also terrible for the environment. Eminem swiftly got rid of his, and it now stands on display in all its yellow glory.

The Bentley Continental is the epitome of luxury, and a step away from the classic sports car. In fact, the Bentley Continental is probably Eminem's only car that he owns solely based on looks.
The Bentley has undergone a number of changes over the years, with the latest model sporting an enhance in engine power to 528 PS (388 kW; 521 hp) at 6,000 rpm, and 680 N⋅m (502 lb⋅ft) of torque at 1,700 rpm.
