The car even got featured in the W Magazine and was photographed by Juergen Teller.
5. 2012 Lexus LS
Given George's status as an A-list celebrity, you would not expect him to own a regular luxury sedan like the Lexus LS.

A traffic jam in Los Angeles back in 1982 kindled a dream for Rick Woodbury which took more than 20 years and finally made it to the industry in 2005.

Clooney even purchased the first production model and even endorsed them back in the day.
3. 1959 Chevrolet Corvette C1

Chevy Corvettes from the late ‘50s always bring attention to the public and more if they belong to a celebrity. If we just consider the originality of the car, it is hands down Clooney’s ‘59 Corvette but in terms of beauty and value, the winner is the owner of Hart House. Yes, Kevin Hart and his Restomod ’59 Corvette “Mint Condition”.
2. 2008 Tesla Roadster Singature 100
George was among the first to get behind the wheel of the original Tesla Roadster. It was launched in 2008. It was the first EV that the actor had driven. However, later he decided to say farewell to the Roadster finished in Obsidian Black Metallic since he wasn't impressed with it.

Due to Clooney's contribution to the project, the President and Founder of SSP stated, “We admire and respect Mr. Clooney’s talent and dedication to making a difference in our international community…”
1. 2021 Mercedes-AMG E53 Cabriolet
Lastly, the most recent addition to Clooney's car collection is a Mercedes-AMG E 53 Cabriolet that “The American” actor purchased back in 2021 after moving to his 18th-century property in France. Spending a sprawling $8.3 million on the mansion looks inferior when you have $500 million in your bank account, thus George decided to spend another $84K on this drily drive convertible.

One of them is a 2017 Harley-Davidson Dresser Touring Ultra Limited FLHTK which he sold back in November 2018 for $25,000. The money was donated to the “Homes for Our Troops Veterans Day” event organized by Ben Stiller, Jake Tapper, and Kenny Chesney.
George Clooney again made headlines after he declared to step out of being a motorcyclist which involved his horrific accident back in July 2018. According to sources, he was thrown over the top after a Mercedes in Olbia on the island of Sardinia crashed into his Yamaha scooter, hitting him head-on. George revealed that he was approximately flying over 30 feet and told his friend after the accident, “good to be alive”.
