But among all of them, one star who stands out is Jason Statham. He rose to fame in the Transporter film series, before going on to star in a series of action movies like Crank, Death Race, The Expendables and the Fast and Furious franchise. His love for beauty, power, and sophistication has carried over to his personal life.
He has a garage full of cars most of us can only dream of: foreign machines like Audis and Mercedes; exotic supercars like Ferraris and Lamborghinis; even cars like Jaguars and Aston Martins. Ferrari built this car to replace the GTB—and to be both a supercar and a hybrid—and they did an excellent job. According to Evo, the F12 Berlinetta produces a whopping horsepower at rpm, all from its V12 engine.
This results in a top speed of mph and an acceleration of 0 to 60 mph in only 3. One of his cars is the Audi RS 6. The RS 6 comes in two versions. The first is the Performance model, which is built to have tons of power; this is the one Statham owns. The second is the Avant, which is an estate with looks, practicality and more than enough power. Jason Statham clearly has a thing for Audis.
So, it should come as no surprise that the actor is the proud owner of an Audi S8. This is a luxury sports car made for people who want to go fast while looking stylish; in short, it was made for Jason Statham. The car has been produced in four generations, from until today. And it has only gotten more powerful, with speeds that let it keep up with the latest sports cars and an interior on par with the best luxury cars.
The Aston Martin is a car usually associated with James Bond. But heck, Jason Statham is as good as any Bond we know. He might even make a nice Bond one day. It was originally manufactured between and as the convertible version of the DBS. It came with a motorized retractable fabric roof, a Bang and Olufsen speaker system and a 6. In case you were wondering if that was simply his movie persona, we have some good news: he truly loves fast cars.
During its year production run, Lamborghini built 4, Murcielagos before replacing them with the Aventador. He must have enjoyed the feel of driving the car because he was seen in it lots of times around Los Angeles. The GT2 is one of the finest cars the German manufacturer has made. According to Autocar, the car goes from 0 to 60 mph in 3. Not bad for a car powered by a 3. The Jaguar E-Type is a car built for people who have class and who want a timeless car that will turn heads without the need to go over the speed limit.
It was made for people like Jason Statham, who can be classy when he chooses to. And he did when he showed up in this dazzling classic for the premiere of his film, The Mechanic. His goal was to promote the brand, and he undoubtedly succeeded. When Jason Statham starred in The Transporter, he allegedly loved driving the foreign cars so much that he became a lifelong fan.
The Audi R8 is the sportiest Audi in his collection. Powered by a V8 which produces horsepower, the sports car can reach a top speed of mph, not to mention going from 0 to 60 mph in 4 seconds. Statham owns two Audi R8s: a black one and a white one. They were also 2 of the few females to be highly associated with Audi. They both also happened to be some of the rare non-white Audi drivers in movies. However, as a 32 year old, Ed Skrein is below the average age of individuals associated with Audi, An important aspect of Brands in entertainment is the context in which they appear.
This includes both where they are shown and how they are used. A bottle of champagne being served at a black tie event will be remembered very differently from one being chugged at a college party. Similarly a car being used in a government convoy will seem quite different from one being used to pick up kids from school.
When Brands appear in entertainment they receive certain associations. These can come from the location in which they appear but are mostly due to how the products are used. A camera used by a journalist will be remembered as professional. Yeah, exactly. All three have racing experience, which came in handy in the specially modified S8. Modifications which the eagle-eyed car enthusiast will spot the first time it flagrantly oversteers at high and low speeds.
Now if only we could remember Audi's famous name for its four-wheel-drive system…. We got rid of the power steering too, as well as the anti-skid and ABS systems.
