A Judge With A Need For Speed
Simon Cowell isn’t just a reality TV mogul, he’s a full-blown car enthusiast. With over two dozen vehicles in his garage, his collection screams luxury, speed, and old-school glam. When he’s not judging talent, he’s judging horsepower.
His Garage Is Worth Millions
Cowell’s estimated net worth of $600 million has fueled one of the most lavish celebrity car collections. From vintage icons to modern hypercars, his fleet is carefully curated. It’s not just about fast, it’s about statement-making.

The Ferrari 458 Spider Means Business
Cowell’s Ferrari 458 Spider is a V8-powered head-turner that combines performance with Italian flair. It hits 60 mph in just 3.4 seconds, and its retractable hardtop makes it perfect for LA cruising. He’s often seen taking it for a joyride near his Beverly Hills estate.

Two Ferraris And Double The Flex
Cowell also owns a Ferrari California, which is a slightly less aggressive but equally stylish alternative. With a twin-turbo V8, it still pushes out 550 horsepower. Whether it’s the Spider or the California, Simon Cowell’s prancing horses never sit idle.

Birthday Ferrari Maranello
To celebrate turning 51, Cowell gifted himself a Ferrari 575M Maranello. This V12 grand tourer mixes muscle with refinement and offers top-tier luxury for long drives. Naturally, he made sure to be seen driving it around London.

The Bugatti Veyron Is In A League Of Its Own
The Veyron is one of Cowell’s most expensive rides, costing $1.9 million. With an 8.0-liter quad-turbo W16 and 1,000+ horsepower, it’s one of the fastest production cars ever made. He bought it back when it was the world’s priciest car, and it still turns heads today.
Bugatti Bragging Rights
Only 300 Veyrons were ever made, making Cowell’s model a collector's dream. With a 0–60 time of just 2.46 seconds, it’s more spaceship than sports car. It's not just a car, it's a high-speed power statement.
Rolls-Royce Phantom
Cowell owns not one, but two Rolls-Royce Phantoms. With a 6.75-liter V12, a whisper-quiet ride, and handcrafted interiors, these are peak executive transport. Even his choice of sedans is pure indulgence.

Dawn Patrol In A Rolls
When he wants open-air luxury, Cowell reaches for his Rolls-Royce Dawn. The power-folding soft top disappears in silence, and the interior is built like a five-star lounge. It was his convertible of choice for pandemic-era Malibu drives.

Bentley Continental Convertible
Cowell’s black Bentley Continental is sleek, powerful, and weirdly practical. With a twin-turbo W12 engine and eight-speed automatic transmission, it balances comfort and performance. When he’s not in a Ferrari, he’s often behind this wheel.
Bentley Azure Is Classic British Bling
Another favorite is his Bentley Azure, a luxury convertible with serious road presence. Its 6.8-liter turbocharged V8 gives it both heft and speed. Cowell’s been seen cruising around LA in it with the top down and sunglasses on.

The Bentley Arnage T Is All Stealth Wealth
Cowell’s Bentley Arnage T may not look flashy at first glance, but inside, it's decked out with a cocktail bar and champagne cooler. Under the hood, it’s hiding a massive 450-hp V8.
A Bentley For Every Mood
Between the Continental, Azure, and Arnage, Cowell’s Bentley game is unmatched. Each offers a different experience: sporty, open-air elegance, or low-key luxury.
Aston Martin DB9
Simon’s Aston Martin DB9 Volante brings the James Bond fantasy to life. With a stiffened chassis and a V12 under the hood, it delivers both elegance and explosive power.

He Has A DB7, Too
Because one Aston isn’t enough, Cowell also owns a black DB7. It runs on a naturally aspirated V12 engine and a six-speed manual transmission. It’s slightly older but just as dramatic.

Jaguar F-Type
Cowell’s white Jaguar F-Type Coupe is one of the more understated cars in his lineup. It’s still got style and speed, but it’s not screaming for attention.
Jaguar Eagle Speedster
The Jaguar Eagle Speedster is a modern remake of the iconic E-Type, handcrafted and incredibly rare. Cowell’s model reportedly cost over $2 million.

Porsche 911 Classic
His 911 Classic isn’t just about speed, it’s about history. With a bi-turbo boxer engine and unmistakable curves, it’s one of Porsche’s finest. It might be the most beloved shape in the automotive world.
The Million-Dollar Porsche Speedster
Cowell’s Porsche Speedster 356 is a minimalist masterpiece. Its low-slung frame and double-bubble rear deck scream 1950s race track glam. With a $1.3 million value, it’s as rare as it is beautiful.

Tesla Model S
Among the gas-guzzling beasts is a Tesla Model S. Sleek, fast, and environmentally conscious, it’s the surprising green leaf in his collection. Even Simon Cowell needs to beat LA traffic silently sometimes.

The Smart Fortwo Is Small But Mighty
Yes, the man who owns a Bugatti also drives a Smart Fortwo. It’s compact, efficient, and totally unexpected.
Simon’s Got A Thing For Scooters
He’s been spotted on Vespas more than once, especially in Miami. Whether it’s errands or beachside rides, the scooter fits his jet-set lifestyle. Of course, his are custom and paparazzi-ready.

Three-Wheeled Beast
Cowell’s Can-Am Spyder isn’t just a toy, it’s a 115-hp, six-speed, liquid-cooled trike. Think of it as a cross between a motorcycle and a TIE fighter. It’s exactly the kind of thing you'd expect Cowell to own and never explain.

A Classic Ford For The Collector
Cowell owns a 1966 Ford Bronco, a true icon of American off-road design. Rugged and retro, it's a favorite among collectors and celebs alike. He was once spotted grocery shopping in it, as casually as possible.

He Also Owns A Ford Model B
Because why not go all the way back to 1904? The Ford Model B in Cowell’s collection is fully restored and auction-worthy. It’s not fast, but it’s a conversation starter.
Every Car Is Photo Ready
From paparazzi snaps to red carpet arrivals, Cowell’s cars are part of the brand. He doesn’t just drive them, he showcases them. Whether it’s Beverly Hills or Saint-Tropez, the man always arrives in style.

His Cars Have Star Power
Some of his vehicles have been featured in TV segments, documentaries, and even musicals. One X Factor promo famously opened with him stepping out of a Rolls.
A V12 Lover Through And Through
Simon Cowell’s collection heavily features V12-powered machines, including his Rolls-Royce Phantoms, Aston Martins, and multiple Ferraris. These engines are known for their smooth delivery and high-performance capabilities, often reserved for ultra-luxury or supercar models.

Built For Speed
Several of Cowell’s cars are capable of reaching speeds over 200 mph, including his Ferrari 458 Spider and Bugatti Veyron. The Veyron alone boasts a top speed of 257 mph and can accelerate from 0 to 60 in under 2.5 seconds.
His Collection Spans Generations
From a 1904 Ford to a modern Tesla, Simon Cowell’s garage covers more than a century of automotive history. It’s a timeline of design, innovation, and horsepower.
Malibu, Mayfair, Monaco
Cowell doesn't leave his cars behind when he moves between cities. Whether he's in London or LA, his favorite rides are often shipped with him—because even his vehicles fly private.
One Car And Endless Headlines
When Cowell drove his Bugatti Veyron through Los Angeles, it wasn’t just a drive, it was an event. Paparazzi swarmed, fans stared, and traffic briefly ceased to matter.
Spotted In Malibu During Lockdown
In 2020, Simon Cowell was photographed driving his Rolls-Royce convertible through Malibu during the height of the pandemic. The model featured was likely his Rolls-Royce Dawn, known for its silent soft-top mechanism and handcrafted interior.

Like his career, it’s only gotten bolder with time. He may not have a warehouse-sized garage, but Cowell’s collection rivals the greats.
