The Cars Of A Fashion Design Icon
Armani suits are known for being some of the world's best-made suits. Original designer and fashion icon, Giorgio Armani has not only curated a wardrobe of exquisite suits over the last several decades, he's also curated a stunning collection of cars. From Italian classics to German-engineered brilliance, his collection has it all. Let's explore the car collection of one of the world's greatest fashion designers.
Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano – A Red Hot Classic
In 2007, Armani slipped behind the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano's wheel, a grand tourer that redefined Italian excellence. Powered by a roaring 6.0L V12 engine, this beauty delivers a heart-racing 612 HP and can rocket up to 205 MPH. The sleek lines, aggressive stance, and luxurious touches make it a staple in any style icon’s garage—and a true celebration of velocity in velvet gloves.

Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe – Quiet Luxury On Wheels
Armani embraced the Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe in 2015, drawn to its balance of discretion and opulence. With a twin-turbo V8 offering 449 HP and a top speed electronically limited to 155 MPH, this grand tourer whispers elegance rather than shouting for attention. It’s the automotive equivalent of a monochrome Armani tuxedo—sophisticated, understated, and impossible to overlook.

Maserati Quattroporte – Italian Power In A Designer Suit
The Maserati Quattroporte entered Armani’s collection in 2011, reinforcing his allegiance to Italian craftsmanship. Don’t let the suit-and-tie styling fool you—beneath the hood lies a bellowing V8 engine generating 425 HP, capable of pushing the car to a thrilling 177 MPH. It’s the kind of refined brute you’d expect to see chauffeuring a fashion mogul through Milan’s cobbled streets.

Audi A8L – Tailored For Subtle Sophistication
Ever the fan of minimalism, Armani added the Audi A8L to his fleet in 2016. With its whisper-quiet 4.0L V8 producing 450 HP and a top speed of 130 MPH, the A8L is a rolling boardroom with the soul of a sculptor. It’s a car that blends perfectly into the night, yet still makes a statement when it glides by—a precise metaphor for Armani himself.

Fiat 500 Jolly – La Dolce Vita On Four Wheels
Armani’s playful side emerges with his 1960s Fiat 500 Jolly—a car that swaps horsepower for heart. With just 22 HP and a breezy top speed of 59 MPH, this beach cruiser was made for slow rolls along the Italian Riviera. Its wicker seats and cheerful design are a charming departure from his usual sleek aesthetic, but no less stylish.

Bentley Continental Flying Spur – Understated British Nobility
In 2008, Armani introduced a Bentley Continental Flying Spur into his garage, adding a touch of British restraint to his otherwise Italian-heavy lineup. This gentleman’s missile hides a W12 engine that churns out 552 HP and launches the car to a serene 195 MPH. It's a rolling reminder that power and poise can (and should) coexist.
Ferrari FF – A Four-Season Fashion Statement
Breaking from Ferrari’s norm, the FF joined Armani’s collection in 2012 and brought with it a sense of versatility wrapped in Italian leather. Packing 651 HP from a naturally aspirated V12 and boasting a top speed of 208 MPH, the FF is a rocket-powered hatchback for those who refuse to compromise—perfect for a fashion mogul with a penchant for alpine getaways.

Jaguar XJ – Cool Britannia Meets Milanese Chic
The Jaguar XJ became a garage mainstay in 2010, thanks to its clean lines and stealthy personality. Armani’s supercharged 5.0L V8 variant produces 470 HP and comfortably cruises up to 174 MPH. In this feline, there’s no need for growls—it purrs with class and glides with the kind of confidence that only British engineering and Italian tailoring can conjure together.
Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione – Italian Art On Asphalt
In 2009, Armani secured one of only 500 Alfa Romeo 8C Competiziones—a car that’s more sculpture than machine. With its 444 HP V8 engine and a pulse-quickening top speed of 181 MPH, it’s every bit as powerful as it is beautiful. Dressed in a custom slate gray to match his signature color palette, it’s a moving masterpiece worthy of a Milan showroom floor.

Land Rover Defender – Rugged Meets Refined
Armani took delivery of a custom Land Rover Defender in 2021, and while it may look rugged on the outside, it’s been tamed for urban sophistication. The P400 model produces 395 HP and tops out at 119 MPH, but the true appeal lies in its tailored matte sage paint, bespoke leather interior, and unflappable attitude. It's Armani’s idea of off-roading—in style.

Mercedes-Benz G-Class – The Power Suit Of SUVs
In 2018, Armani added a G550 to his fleet—an SUV as structured and commanding as a double-breasted wool blazer. It’s got the muscle too, with 416 HP under the hood and a top speed of 130 MPH. Boxy, bold, and unmistakably elite, this is one of the few vehicles that can keep up with its driver in terms of presence.

Ferrari Portofino – Sun-Kissed Sophistication
For his 85th birthday in 2019, Armani gifted himself the ultimate coastal cruiser: the Ferrari Portofino. With 591 HP and a top speed of 199 MPH, this convertible grand tourer is both graceful and exhilarating. Clad in a deep navy finish with cream leather seats, it captures the essence of relaxed luxury—just the way Giorgio likes it.
Rolls-Royce Ghost – Where Elegance Takes The Wheel
Acquired in 2013, the Rolls-Royce Ghost represents peak discretion for Armani. Despite its near-silent cabin, it commands 563 HP and can waft up to 155 MPH without disturbing a single hair on its driver’s perfectly styled head. It’s the definition of "power dressing" in automotive form—quiet, controlled, and utterly distinguished.

Lexus LC 500 – Futuristic, With A Flair For Fashion
One of the newest additions to the Armani fleet is the Lexus LC 500, added in 2023. A bold departure from the classics, this Japanese GT coupe offers 471 HP and hits a top speed of 168 MPH. With its dramatic lines and avant-garde interior, it’s a forward-thinking statement piece—just like Armani’s own fashion empire.
A Fleet That Mirrors A Fashion Legend
From vintage charm to contemporary muscle, Giorgio Armani’s car collection is as immaculately curated as his runway shows. Each vehicle serves a purpose—whether it's to turn heads, disappear into the background, or simply indulge in the art of movement.
