Floyd Mayweather Sells Old Rolls Royce Phantom On Ebay

Famous boxer Floyd Mayweather just sold his 2005 Rolls Royce Phantom for the current rate at which these sell, just under $150,000 on Ebay thru a car dealership in Denver, CO. It is a fairly unique color scheme for this car, being a two tone blue with a light grain wood and blue fuzzy interior. Everyone is guessing that Mayweather sold this Rolls Royce Phantom since 50 purchased a brand-new 2012 Rolls Royce Phantom last Feburary for Floyd Mayweather's birthday.

Floyd Mayweather Purchased A 2012 Bentley Mulsanne

Floyd Mayweather recently purchased a 2012 Bentley Mulsanne, which follows with a heart-aching price of $290,000 dollars, stock. Floyd went with the white exterior, and a B/W leather interior. If you notice under the steering-wheel, it gets 11 miles to the gallon in the city, and 16 miles to the gallon on the highway. Not too many people have one of these!

Rihanna Gets A Black On Black Jeep From Roc Nation

Famous Artist Rihanna recently received this custom Jeep as a gift recently from Roc Nation! This photo is kind of hard to see, but the photo of this black-on-black Jeep was taken from her twitter page. The Jeep was customized with black window tint, a small lift kit, and some great looking black rims. There are no pics of the interior, but being the artist she is, I'm sure there is a banging speaker set-up. Who else gets a Jeep from none other thatn Jay-Z? Not too many people. Wonder if this will be used in any upcoming music videos.

Blake Griffin – 2011 SEMA Show – 2012 Kia Optima Hybrid

The 2011 SEMA Show featured this Kia Optima Hybrid that was inspired by Blake Griffin whatever that means. The car features his name on the hood and a basketball hoop in the trunk. The build was completed by West Coast Customs in Los Angeles, California. The sensible hybrid was placed in the official Kia Motors booth with this basketball style wrap. This whole build was probably a nice thank you present to Blake Griffin of the Los Angeles Clippers after he did this with a Kia Optima at the 2011 NBA All-Star Dunk contest. In case you missed the video, watch it below:

Poker Player Vanessa Rousso Selling Her Lamborghini Gallardo

Up for grabs is a sweet 2007 Lamborghini Gallaro owned by the attractive Poker player Vanessa Rousso. This car has a clean title, and has just under 13,000 miles on it. The only customization she had done was painting the stock rims. Vanessa Rousso, is a very interesting person though. At age 26, she is a french American law student, who is sponsered by PokerStars. That basically sums up to being able to travel around the world, and compete in all the major poker tournaments at no expense. Vanessa said she purchased this car as a 'small gift' for herself with all those poker winnings. I wonder what she will buy next!

Phil Ivey and his Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren

Phil Ivey Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren

The guys over at AskMen asked the Full Tilt Poker star how he came about this silver Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR seen above. The story is quite entertaining and hopefully one day the keys to this won't wind up in the middle of a poker hand. An excellent choice from the Mercedes line was made even though it was an impulse purchase.

We know you’re a sensible young man, but what’s your most extravagant purchase to date?

I went with a friend to help him buy a car, and there was this Mercedes McLaren SLR in the parking lot. I asked the salesman how much it was [and] I said, “That’s too much money for a car!” He said, “Take it for a test drive.” I got back and I’m like, “Where do I sign?”
