Justin Bieber, The Kardashians Blacklisted From Buying Ferrari
The Kardashians have plenty of swoon-worthy cars to their names, but it appears Ferrari isn’t one of them. According to a report by Marca, a Spanish newspaper, the Italian car manufacturer has a blacklist of celebrities its unwilling to sell to. And on it, is the Kardashian family.
While this can’t prevent the Kardashians from acquiring a Ferrari, what it means is that Ferrari reserves the right to carefully select who it sells its models to, especially exclusive models.
The car manufacturer is also strict about the upkeep and preservation of its models, including disallowing unauthorized modifications on its cars.
The report doesn’t specify if Ferrari is against selling to all of the Kardashians (including the Jenners, like Kendall and Kylie). But it added that other celebs have been blacklisted from exclusives, including Justin Bieber, Nicolas Cage, and Floyd Mayweather.
Justin’s ban stems back to his decision to sell his 2011 F458 Ferrari in 2017 after making unauthorized modifications, including changing its color to neon blue.
In order to preserve exclusivity, Ferrari has a rigorous selection process for potential buyers. As Car Keys reports, the car manufacturer often requests to see history of ownership, and doesn’t “take any buyer under the age of 40 seriously.”
It’s reportedly even harder to get your hands on an exclusive model, even if you’ve owned Ferraris. The publication references the case of Preston Henn, an ex-race car driver and entrepreneurs, who owned 18 Ferraris over a span of decades.
Henn decided to sue the car manufacturer for $75,000 after they denied him purchase of an Aperta (saying it damaged his reputation. However, he later chose to withdraw the lawsuit.
Even if the Kardashians can’t buy a Ferrari in the future, they certainly have some huge luxury cars to their names.
Kim Kardashian– who is said to own a Ferrari 458 Italia– has a Maserati Gran Turismo, Mercedes Maybach GLS600, and Rolls-Royce Ghost to her name
Kylie Jenner reportedly has car collection valued at least at $1.5 million, which includes an a Lamborghini Urus, a Bugatti Chiron, an a blue Rolls Royce. However, her on-and-off boyfriend Travis Scott gave her a Ferrari LaFerrari as a push present after their daughter Stormi’s birth, so her car collection is definitely in the multi millions, if anything.
Justin Bieber, too, won’t have a lack of luxurious options despite his supposed ban from Ferrari. His car collection includes a Lamborghini Urus, Porsche Cayenne, and a Rolls Royce Ghost.
