Kim Kardashian Spotted Driving Kanye West’s SLR McLaren To The Gym

Kim Kardashian was spotted driving Kanye West's silver Mercedes SLR McLaren to the gym and to run some errands around LA. Kanye West lives in New York, but keeps his car collection at his house in Los Angeles. The two have been publicly dating for a little bit, and they must really trust one another to do such a thing knowing how rare this Mercedes-Benz is! It looks like the car was waxed before Kim drove it, because a car like that can't get dirty!

Kid Cudi Poses Before Peeling Out In His New Mercedes-Benz SLS Gullwing

Kid Cudi was spotted leaving the club in his brand new Mercedes-Benz SLS Gullwing. The white exterior color, with the red interor mixes timeless with modern. This Gullwing is powered by a hand-built 6.2-liter V8 motor, with 563hp and a twin-clutch 7-spee transmisson. Plenty of power for a rapper, which is why he peeled out at the end of the video. Great choice Cudi! Note he is wearing a Human Made jacket, which is Nigo's new clothing line, since he has sold Bape.

EXCLUSIVE: Manny Fresh Spotted In Custom Fisker Karma At LAX

Super producer and hip-hop artist Manny Fresh's Fisker Karma was spotted parked at LAX Tom Bradley Terminal tonight. American Wheel And Tire, located in Dallas, TX installed the black Giovanna Kilis wheels wrapped on Pirelli PZero Nero tires for Manny Fresh. Pretty expensive set-up, and probably the best looking wheel combo on the Fisker Karma to date. Hopefully this one won't break down on Mr. Manny Fresh himself!

Kanye West And Jay-Z “Otis” Maybach Auction Only Fetched $60,000

Last month we posted about the Maybach that was welded and cut carelessly for the Kayne and Jay-Z "Otis" music video to be up on the auction block. The company holding the auction guessed that the reformed Maybach would fetch around $100,000 to $150,000 or more. Sadly, the Maybach only fetched $60,000 in a very short amount of time. Owner and president of DUB magazine stated during an August 2011 MTV news interview that "The thing is, the value of that car is nothing now, you couldn't drive it on the street," due to the extensive work done cutting the roof, welding the doors, etc. Maybe the man who purchased it for purely nostalgia? The fact that he could? Why do you think he bought the car?

Chris Brown Leaving Club With Girlfriend Karrueche In His Custom Lamborghini Gallardo

Chris Brown wa spotted recently leaving the club with his girlfriend Karrueche in his WW2 inspired Lamborghini Gallardo. Pretty crazy looking huh? He has changed the color of the rims from that candy paint blue to a much cleaner dark grey/black color which blends in much better with the overall look of the car. He may have gone all out with the speaker system and the full vinyl wrap, but he should have done something to the hood! It's just left blank.
