These are the cars that Donald Trump will have to leave parked for being President of the United States
Like it more or less inside and outside its borders, the reality is that Donald Trump is already the new President of the United States of America, having won the presidential elections against the other candidate, Hillary Clinton. In Motorpasión we are not going to go in to assess Trump's victory because that is already done by other sister publications better than us.
What we are going to do is review the cars that Donald Trump will have to leave parked in his garage when he moves to the White House and he has no choice but to use the Cadillac Presidential Limousine that Barack Obama released with the appointment of him. Because these jewels will stand still now that Donald Trump is the President of the United States.
The tycoon is a great lover of cars and has been so throughout his professional career until reaching the White House. For years it has been relatively common to see Trump posing with different cars, from large luxury sedans to traditional American sports cars, although he also has a few exotic European cars in his collection. These are.
Lamborghini Diablo
The first that stands out is an electric blue Lamborghini Diablo that Trump acquired in 1997. The Italian supercar, with which he came to pose for a photo accompanied by one of his three women who, who was going to tell them, today He would be first lady if it weren't for the fact that he married Melania Knauss-Trump in 2005, a former Slovenian model a little younger than him. Or is she the one in the photo?
Mercedes SLR McLaren
Another car that stands out in Donald Trump's collection is a ** Mercedes SLR McLaren ** in silver, with which he has been seen several times on the streets of New York. Apparently it is a unit from the year 2003 that Trump acquired new and that has very few miles on the meter. The detail if you have noticed the photo, is that when he received it he had a red bow on the ceiling. Gift from him to his wife or vice versa?
Rolls-Royce Phantom
Perhaps the car that best suits Trump's personality is the Rolls-Royce Phantom, that luxurious giant that we had the opportunity to exclusively test a couple of years ago (part 1, part 2 and video). The super-luxury saloon is also part of his private fleet of vehicles, and he could perfectly use it for his representation tasks in front of the White House, but he does not have the necessary security measures and of course, he does not represent the important North American automobile industry. .
Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud
Trump also has a certain fondness for classic cars, hence he owns a Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud from the 50s. Some gossips say that this 1956 model was his first car and that is why Trump has forged that personality somewhat arrogant and haughty. Who would not be like him having a Rolls-Royce as his first car ...
Chevrolet Camaro Indianapolis 500 Pace Car
Perhaps this is the car with which Trump has generated the most controversy. In 2011 Donald Trump was chosen to drive the Pace Car of the Indianapolis 500, a decision that aroused great controversy among fans, who did not see why he and not a driver would do that job. Finally Trump did not come to the race due to scheduling problems and was replaced by A.J. Foyt. Anyway, Trump received the car and posed with it for photos, which are still in the General Motors archive.
To close, let's not forget that Donald Trump defines himself as a defender of the North American automobile industry, hence during the electoral campaign he came to charge against Ford for moving the production of the Focus and the C-Max to Mexico, which forced the company American to announce that the Ford Bronco would be manufactured in Michigan to alleviate the criticism derived from Trump's comment. Ladies and gentlemen, at least for the next four years the show from across the pond is assured.
