Luxury cars owned by the world’s richest actor Adam Sandler, how he spends his money and other things to know about him

Cars owned by Adam Sandler

Even though he does not own private jets or yachts, with his net worth of over USD 400 million and consistently revenue-generating movies, it comes as no surprise that Adam Sandler owns a fleet of luxury vehicles.

He possibly also spends millions on gifting cars to those close to him. One evidence of this: the actor gifted a Maserati worth USD 200,000 to each of his co-stars of Grown Ups (2010). Those who received cars were Chris Rock, David Spade, Kevin James and Rob Schneider, which means that Sandler spent USD 800,000 in one go.

At least two of Sandler’s cars are Cadillac, the luxury car brand that is one of the four divisions of American multinational car maker General Motors (GM). There are two others — Dodge Challenger SRT and Ferrari 488 Pista — which are known for their speed. There are speculations that he also owns a Lincoln Navigator and a Lexus LS.

Sandler has been seen driving around Los Angeles in a jet-black Cadillac DTS car. Cadillac produced the DTS series from 2005 to 2011, which means that Sandler’s car is at least 12 years old if he bought the final year’s model and still owns it.

The 2011 make DTS Platinum Edition, which Cadillac described as having a “distinctly higher level of premium luxury,” was fitted with a 292 hp Northstar 4.6-litre V8 engine under the hood.

It came with a choice of two unique interiors: Light Linen over Cocoa and all-Ebony. Tuscany full leather upholstery, handcrafted, leather-wrapped heated steering wheel, chrome rings, French seams, illuminated platinum badge and hand-cut-and-sewn leather were part of the car’s embellishments.

The car also had a sunroof and LED interior ambient footwell lighting. Since it was 2011, a DVD navigation system was present as well.

Cadillac Escalade

His other Cadillac is an Escalade. Some reports say that the actor owns an Escalade Hybrid variant, but there is no confirmation on the exact type of the car that he has.

The Cadillac Escalade is a full-size luxury SUV and looks quite like a beast on the road. Due to its strong build, it is preferred by celebrities both for their personal use and as a personnel carrier for their bodyguards. Among the many celebrities who own a Cadillac Escalade is BLACKPINK’s Jennie.

The car has been in continuous production since 1998. Over the years, Cadillac has produced three other variants of the vehicle, including the Hybrid and Escalade EXT sport utility truck.

A 2023 model of the Cadillac Escalade has ultra-comfortable interiors defined by natural wood finishes, hand-finished leather, a Console Refrigerator with Freezer Mode, heated and ventilated Full Semi-Aniline leather seats with massage settings, an UltraView sunroof and ambient interior lighting with 26-colour options, among other features.

The car has a 38-inch total diagonal display, which Cadillac says is the “industry’s first” curved OLED display with “twice the pixel density of a 4K TV.” The car has all the advanced technology that one can expect in a 2023 model, such as an augmented reality-enable navigation system and heads-up display like those in fighter aircraft. It also has Super Cruise, a hands-free driving system for certain kinds of roads.

The 2023 model starts at a base price of USD 80,795 and can go up to USD 150,000, depending on the model of which there are six, starting from Luxury to V-Series. The Cadillac Escalade may have a 6.2L V8 engine with Dynamic Fuel Management or a 6.2L Supercharged V8 engine, depending on the model.

If Sandler has a Hybrid model, then it will have a two-mode hybrid system, consisting of an advanced, electrically variable transmission and a 300-volt nickel-metal hydride Energy Storage System. The electric systems will work alongside a standard 6.0L V-8 Gen IV gasoline engine with Active Fuel Management.

Dodge Challenger SRT

The Dodge Challenger SRT is an American muscle car, extremely popular for its power, looks and legacy. It has the distinction of being one of the most famous cars that appeared in movies and TV shows.

Its 2023 make starts at USD 31,965 for the base model known as SXT. Its highest-level model, known as Super Stock, starts at USD 91,000. The price easily goes past USD 100,000 for any version with configurations.

The Super Stock variant comes with an 807hp 6.2L High-Output HEMI V8 engine. It has a top speed of around 270 km/h. Dodge says that the 2023 Hellcat Redeye Widebody variant in the line has a top speed of 326 km/h. In any case, experts call the Dodge Challenger SRT the fastest muscle car in the world based on its acceleration of 0-96 km/h in 3.2 seconds.

The exact model of Sandler’s Dodge Challenger SRT is not known. But some reports suggest that his wheels are from 2018.

This is perhaps the fastest car in Adam Sandler’s collection. Reports suggest that he bought the Ferrari 488 Pista in 2020 and has been seen driving it around quite often.

The Ferrari 488 Pista is fitted with a 3.9L twin-turbo V8 dry sump engine, which Ferrari says is the most powerful in the carmaker’s history. It has an acceleration of 0-100 km/h in just 2.8 seconds and a top speed of more than 340 km/h.

The two-seater Pista can cost around USD 330,000, making it the most expensive car in Sandler’s garage.
