Usain Bolt, born in 1986, is a Jamaica sprinter. He still holds the record for the fastest runner in the world in the 100m distance. In 2009, he completed the race with a time of 9.58 seconds. In Olympic history, the "lightningning" has won 8 Gold Medals at 3 consecutive Games in 2008, 2012 and 2016.
Hotcars recently discovered Usain Bolt's garage, showing that the retired athlete owns a series of fast supercars. The most notable in Usain Bolt's collection is the Nissan MY15 GTR Usain, which the manufacturer especially dedicated to him.
In 2015, Nissan celebrated its 45th anniversary and launched a limited edition of the Nissan my15 GTR, only 80 units were produced worldwide, priced at around $177,000/unit. This version called "Gold Edition" is painted luxuriously yellow, but only one by Usain Bolt is painted red, as well as some separate designs in LED lights and license plates. The manufacturer launched these two types, one of which was dedicated to Usain Bolt, the other was auctioned to raise funds for charity set up by this athlete.
The Usain Bolt car is equipped with a 3.8-liter V6 twin-turbocharged gasoline engine capable of producing 550 horsepower and 652 nm of torque. The engine power is controlled by a six-speed dual-clutch transmission that distributes power to all wheels. The my15 GTR can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.7 seconds. The engine of the car is attached to the ' Takumi' lot, which shows the name of the engineer who manufactured the manual engine.
In addition to the special edition Nissan, Usain Bolt also owns the Ferrari 458 Italia. This is one of Ferrari's best sports cars, priced from 300,000 USD to 400,000 USD/set. Usain Bolt bought the supercar in 2010, a year after setting a world record for the 100m race.
This model has a light chassis, but is sturdy, designed to be both modern and classic. It is capable of accelerating from 0 to 100km/h in just 3.4 seconds and can reach a maximum speed of over 320km/h. This high-speed supercar is clearly a great fit for Usain Bolt.
Previously, Usain Bolt also owned the Ferrari F450 - the predecessor of the F458. Ferrari stopped producing this model in 2009. This car is capable of accelerating from 0 to 100km/h in 3.4 seconds and reaching a maximum speed of 315km/h.
According to Hotcars, the above cars are just a part of the iceberg. Usain Bolt's garage also has a series of other expensive cars such as Ferrari California, Subaru Impreza WRX STI and the classic Chevrolet Camaro.
