According to Bugatti, “the development of the Bugatti Veyron was one of the greatest technological and engineering challenges ever surmounted in automotive history.” Under the hood of this famous car is a gigantic 8.0-liter quad-turbocharged W16. Being capable of a mind-boggling 254 mph velocity is insane.
The Veyron essentially ushered in the hypercar, and its price of over one million dollars shattered people's expectations of what a car company could charge for their products. Of course, owning the world's fastest car at the time is an experience only the extremely rich can afford, and Kid Rock is one of them.

Kid Rock is the inspiration for what could be the most outrageous Polaris Slingshot ever. The SS-R concept, which debuted at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, is more than just custom-made carbon-fiber body pieces and flashy paint. The three-wheeler included bespoke designs on the new body panels, as well as a 2.4-liter engine with 400 horsepower.
“It's a mix of materials that come together to make a unique statement about the freedom of the Slingshot and Kid Rock's free speech,” Bob Fehan remarked from BOB FEHAN MOTORSPORTS.
The vehicle will be familiar to fans of the singer thanks to his relatively recent “Born Free” music video. Kid Rock paid $225,000 for the vehicle in March 2010. Nudie Cohn, one of the top celebrity automobile customization artists in the industry, provided the Bonneville.
The three Ithaca lever-action rifles on the outside are among the most visible modifications. Not to mention the six-foot horns and revolvers that function as door handles.
Kid Rock, an American recording musician, decided to sign up with West Coast Customs when he needed work done in his vintage 1975 Cadillac Limousine. Kid Rock challenged the guys to come up with a Waylon-inspired vehicle.

This material, which resembles a bedliner, provides the Sierra with a rugged look while also preserving it. A customized rolled steel bull bar with a 20-inch LED light was added to the fascia to complete the look.

The Chevrolet Chevelle SS is a full-fledged beast. By 1970, the Chevelle SS had achieved its pinnacle of performance with the option of the incredible "LS6" version of the 454 V8 producing 450 horsepower. Kid Rock used a Chevelle SS 454 in his music video, First Kiss.
The 1970 Chevrolet SS 454 LS6 was one of the fastest accelerating production road vehicles, clocking in at just over 5 seconds from 0-60 mph. As such it is now a very collectible automobile. In 1970, a total of 53,599 Chevelle SS models (396s and 454s) were born. But locating one in mint condition, like the one owned by Kid Rock, is very difficult.

It was so popular that the Beach Boys even composed a song about it.
Jesse James of Austin Speed Shop and West Coast Choppers fame handled the Rock's bespoke build. The massive 409 V8 with dual four-barrel carburetors and a four-speed manual gearbox unquestionably make Kid Rock's Impala a showpiece.
