Travis Barker, best known as the drummer for Blink 182, is quite the car collector.
He’s had an impressive fleet over recent years, owning at least 16 cars, from a vintage Buick to a real-life Batmobile and a custom Polaris Slingshot.
Plus his fiancée Kourtney Kardashian bought him his ‘dream car’ for his 46th birthday last year, a vintage ‘80s Buick GNX. Allegedly faster than a Lamborghini and costing $205,000, Barker posted the vintage motor on Instagram!
The Rolls-Royce Cullinans (plural)
Barker is known for liking the Rolls-Royce Cullinan so much, he’s had multiple models in his garage. The all-black Cullinan is the epitome of luxury – retailing at $330,000, the twin-turbo 6.7-litre V-12 provides 563 horsepower (592 in the Black Badge model) with a 0-60mph time of just 4.5 seconds.
But it’s the most recent Cullinan that’s making headlines. A key feature on the premiere of Discovery+ show ‘Million Dollar Wheels’, celebrity car salesman RD Whittington showed Barker his white custom Rolls-Royce, with details colour-matched to the Tiffany Blue.
That includes a custom-painted Tiffany Blue Spirit of Ecstasy to go with the fully matched interior and colour trim.
Barker sat in the back seat and confirmed the car had a ceiling decked out to look like the night sky, including 24 path lines that animate the motion of a randomly appearing meteors streaking across the sky.
Mercedes G-Wagon 4×4 Squared
Barker revealed to Men's Journal that his favourite vehicle in his fleet is the Mercedes G-Wagon 4×4 Squared.
The 4x4 Squared, which retailed at $225,925 and was only in production for two years, is a luxury off-road vehicle from Mercedes-Benz, powered by a 4.0-litre V8 with 416 horsepower.
Some 500 models were produced globally, with approximately 300 sold in the US, so Barker was lucky to get his hands on one!
Cadillac Escalade by DUB
Barker also owns a 2007 Escalade – worth around $50,000, this model made its feature film debut in the 2006 Transformers movie after sharing a scene with the movie's leading star.
Custom Polaris Slingshot
The real-life Batmobile was inspired by Barker's love for black cars, and focused on making it look like a ‘villain's car’.
After removing parts of the bodywork, Barker's team added places for speakers on the body, finishing off the interior and customizing it with the “F” badge (a tribute to Barker’s clothing brand, Famous Stars and Straps).
Barker said it was “kind of luxurious inside” – he’s not wrong!
