Aaron Paul is a renowned actor best known for his roles in “Breaking Bad” and “Need for Speed”. Beyond his acting career, Paul has a passion for automobiles and owns a few interesting cars that are diverse and impressive at the same time. 

With multiple Primetime Emmy wins and upcoming roles like Black Mirror Season 6, let's explore the unique cars that reflect his personality and style, along with some other intriguing details.


5. Toyota Tercel

The first car on Aaron Paul's car list is the Toyota Tercel. This car was even featured in the show ‘Breaking Bad’, where Jesse (Aaron’s Character) was seen driving. Moreover, this is the cheapest car in the actor’s collection.

Being awarded the ACEA award in 5 categories, the Toyota Tercel was auctioned back in 2013 in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Mike Faris, the owner of Mike Faris Auto Wholesale, has revealed that the car was sold to the highest bidder.


4. 1969 Ford Torino GT

The next car in Aaron Paul's collection is the 1969 Ford Torino GT. Aaron drove his prized 1969 Torino on the red carpet at the Need for Speed premiere in Hollywood with his wife in the passenger seat.

Aaron had the car in his possession for almost three years until he sent it to a mechanic shop for maintenance in Long Beach back in 2017, but he hasn't seen it since. When the “Need For Speed” actor went to retrieve his car, he learned that the previous mechanic had sold his shop and vanished with the '69 Ford Torino GT.


3. Land Rover Defender 90 

Aaron Paul's custom black Land Rover Defender 90

Aaron Paul owns a blacked-out Land Rover Defender 90 in his collection. The rugged SUV seems to have been customized as per his taste. He has been spotted driving the same car multiple times.

Aaron's Custom Defender is not the first that people would expect to see him driving on a daily basis. However, the brand and car have caught the attention of even the highest-ranking celebrities like Justin Bieber, who owns a Defender 110. On the contrary, Aaron uses his Range Rover for family trips, especially when staying in Idaho.  


2. 1965 Shelby Cobra 427

Next up on this list is the 1965 Shelby Cobra 427. An Emmy award-winning actor, Aaron Paul, was seen driving his 1965 Shelby Cobra 427 in Hollywood on Sunday. Aside from his full beard and a slight faux hawk, the 41-year-old Idaho native wore a black and white patterned top and a red bandana around his neck.

This ‘60s classic is not only loved by actors and comedians, but some people from F1 Racing have also found an interest in owning and driving this old-school V8. However, Lewis Hamilton owns a Shelby Cobra 427 from 1967 and has an all-black exterior compared to Aaron’s blue with white stripes Shelby. 


1.  Lamborghini Aventador

Portraying a racer in films is one thing, but actually having the exact kind of car in real life comes as a shocker, especially when it's Aaron Paul, whose car collection is filled with SUVs and old classics. In short, Paul became more badass after he bought an all-black Aventador back in 2012.

Although when compared to Chris Brown's one-of-a-kind Aventador SV with Aaron's first-gen Lamborghini, Chris holds an edge, however, the fact that the actor did spend almost half a million dollars on a car is complimentary. The news blew up during a photo shoot with fashion photographer Terry Richardson in December 2012, where Paul was spotted driving around Los Angeles in his black Lamborghini Aventador.
