Does Conor McGregor Have The Most Expensive Car Collection?

Yes. And we would like to leave it there and be honest with you. That would be the most Conor McGregor answer out there. However, we owe it to you to take you through the top 5 cars in his collection and you can judge for yourself.

Before we start, though, an honourable mention must go out to the £3 million yacht which he splashed out on in July 2021. It may not be a car, but this yacht was designed by Lamborghini and is a thing of beauty.

After reading this article, you'll know for sure what someone with a net worth of $120 million spends his money on---cars. McGregor’s collection is nothing short of extraordinary and we are super excited to get right into today’s Celebrity Cars episode. 

The celebrity cars blogs are super popular with you guys reading, and we love to create them for you, so here you go with one for today

Who is Conor McGregor? 

Conor McGregor is an Irish MMA fighter and one of the main reasons for the rapid rise in popularity of the UFC. Over the course of his career, he has fought in the featherweight, lightweight, and welterweight categories, becoming a champion in two of the weight classes.

In 2017, he fought in possibly the biggest sports event ever against Floyd Mayweather where he unfortunately lost, but gained a lot of respect from the fighting community. 

McGregor took naturally to the superstar lifestyle that he developed being the world’s most recognised MMA fighter. However, it wasn't something into which he was born. He came from the suburbs of Dublin.

McGregor journeyed his way through childhood gyms, a stint as a plumber's apprentice, and eventual worldwide fame as the most "notorious" fighter on the planet. Below we will give you our opinion on his top 5 cars. 🚗

Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe

You have just knocked one of the most feared men on the planet out in 13 seconds. What do you do with all that money, and the KO of the Night bonus? 

Get yourself a Phantom Drophead, that’s what you do.

After McGregor’s brawl with former reigning champion Jose Aldo, he treated himself to a Rolls. He was reported to earn $1 million for every second he was in the ring, so the £305,000 he splashed on the Coupe wouldn’t have even scratched the surface of his winnings.

McGregor made a popular choice. With luxury car collections, in our time of writing these blogs, we have found time and time again that celebrities do go for Rollers more often than not. I mean, we totally understand why.

The Phantom Drophead has the standard luxury interior combined with precision engineering from the factory in Sussex. Truly a work of art.

Lamborghini Aventador Roadster

Lamborghini Aventador-1

Yes, it’s the Aventador again. If you guys have been following the blog for some time now, you know that the Lamborghini Aventador Roadster is very popular among celebrities, especially athletes.

We think the Roadster is the perfect car to flex on Instagram, and McGregor does it well, with multiple pictures on his social media channels sat on the bonnet, or cruising around town with Dee Devlin, his partner.

But, if you are paying £275,000 for a car, why wouldn’t you show it off? This isn’t McGregor’s only Lamborghini either. He owns a second Aventador and previously owned a £185,000 Huracan in the past. 

BMW i8

BMW i8-1

The i8 is an impressive car. In a period where hybrid and electric cars are still developing, we can really only think of Tesla as the one that spearheaded developments in the electric sports car space. McGregor thought the same but didn't go for a Tesla.

McGregor expanded his car collection and delved into the hybrid space with the £114,000 investment into the i8. We really don’t blame him either, the car goes from 0-60 in 4.2 seconds and generates 369 BHP to give it a top speed of 155 MPH. If he wanted to splash out some money on a car, he was right to do it for this one!

McLaren 650S

McLaren 650S Spider

Much like Rowan Atkinson's car collection, McGregor got himself a McLaren. The car came to the limelight though when McGregor was stopped and questioned by police in Dublin. The paparazzi were quick to get some shots, and then we found out he had a 650S.

The BMW i8 sure is fast, but the 650S, like a lot of the McLaren’s out there blows that out of the water. It can go 0-60 in 3 seconds with a top speed of 207 MPH. McGregor is often spotted out in Dublin waving at adoring fans. 

Rolls-Royce Ghost

Rolls Royce Ghost-2

Can you tell McGregor is a fan of Rolls-Royce yet? And this isn’t even where his RR collection ends. He is the proud owner of a Rolls-Royce Wraith worth £253,000, a Rolls-Royce Phantom 8 worth £340,000, and a Dawn worth £285,000. What a great customer to have.

Rolls-Royce realised that when they actually reached out to Conor before his brutal TKO on Eddie Alvarez at UFC 205. His gift? An amazing custom-made Ghost that had his name and fighting image blazoned across the side.

This was obviously the deciding factor between the two, as McGregor took Alvarez apart to become the only simultaneous champion in two weight classes. This motor really does make McGregor stand out, just like he does in the Octagon.

Takeaway

Yes. McGregor does have one of the most expensive car collections. We barely touched the surface of his current collection and had to skip a lot of the cars to keep this post from getting too long! 😂

However, Conor started from humble beginnings and didn’t always have this fortune. He probably even got his first car financed just like us mere mortals. Now, if you are looking to get your next car using finance, don’t look further than Carmoola.
