It turns out true to his music, he loves fast cars, and his car collection is enough to make anyone jealous. One of the standout lines from Abel Makkonen \u2018The Weeknd\u2019 Tesfaye\u2019s number-one single \u2018Starboy\u2019 is \u201cwe don\u2019t pray for love, we just pray for cars.\u201d It seems that the Weeknd got what he was asking for, as his garage reads like an A-list gathering of exotic cars. From supercars to luxury vehicles, the Weeknd\u2019s car collection is certainly one to be jealous of; We\u2019ve picked out some of the highlights for you to enjoy. The Weeknd\u2019s supercar collection Many fans wondered if the McLaren P1 he sings about in Starboy is his. Well, it turns out he does indeed own the orange McLaren P1 seen in the video. This $1.2 million, 903hp hypercar forms part of the \u2018holy trinity\u2019 of hypercars, along with the Ferrari LaFerrari and Porsche 918. Clearly, the P1 is Abel\u2019s favorite of the trio, as it found a place inside his incredible custom-built, mirror-floored garage. Alongside his P1, he also owns another outlandish supercar \u2013 a Lamborghini Aventador SVJ. This extravagant Lamborghini packs 690hp from its naturally-aspirated V12 engine. Costing over $517,000 the SVJ is one of the most extreme road-going Lamborghinis ever made. Abel Tesfaye\u2019s exotic cars As well as his enviable garage of supercars, The Weeknd also has a number of luxurious \u2018exotic\u2019 vehicles to complement his brash, visceral performance car collection. One particular highlight is his Bentley Mulsanne. This ultra-plush ride is equally suited to driving and being driven in. Costing just over $300,000, it is likely that The Weeknd\u2019s Mulsanne is blue, judging by the line \u201cI\u2019m in the blue Mulsanne bumping New Edition\u201d in the song Starboy. Alongside the Bentley, he also reportedly owns an AMG G63. A typical celebrity\u2019s car, the G63 blends off-road performance with incredible power from its twin-turbo V8 engine, producing 577hp. He also apparently has a love for the more \u2018retro\u2019 things in life too, as Abel reportedly owns a classic 1980\u2019s Porsche 911. While exact details on this car aren\u2019t clear, there\u2019s no doubt it looks stunning sat next to his modern collection. While his collection isn\u2019t the biggest, nor the most expensive at around the $3m mark, it\u2019s fair to say anyone would be envious. He clearly loves his cars, as he sings about them often enough!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Weeknd\u2019s $3m car collection is fitting for a music icon YouTube: The WeekndThe Weeknd is one of the standout musicians of this generation, with several number-one hits.
