From the football pitch to the world of hypercars, Cristiano Ronaldo has built a lifestyle defined by performance, exclusivity and extraordinary machines. His collection has been widely reported to include some of Bugatti’s most desirable creations, with the exceptionally rare Centodieci standing at the center of one of the world’s most talked-about celebrity car collections.

THE BUGATTI AT THE CENTER OF THE COLLECTION
The centerpiece is the Bugatti Centodieci, a modern tribute to the legendary Bugatti EB110 and one of the rarest production cars of its era. Bugatti limited production to just 10 examples, powered by an 8.0-liter W16 engine producing 1,600 PS. The Centodieci was introduced with a net price of €8 million, before taxes—placing it in a realm where performance and exclusivity meet at an extraordinary level.

RONALDO AND BUGATTI
Ronaldo’s connection with Bugatti extends beyond the Centodieci. He has long been associated with the marque’s hypercars, and in 2017 Bugatti itself featured Ronaldo testing the Chiron at the company’s test track. His collection has also been widely reported to include a Bugatti Veyron, reinforcing a relationship between one of football’s most recognizable stars and one of the world’s most exclusive automotive brands.
PERFORMANCE, RARITY AND STATUS
For Ronaldo, the appeal of a car like the Centodieci goes beyond transportation. It represents the same qualities that have defined much of his career: performance, precision and an obsession with reaching a level few others can attain. With only 10 examples produced, the Centodieci belongs to an extraordinarily small club—even within the world of multimillion-dollar hypercars.
Collections at this level are not simply about owning fast cars. They are about acquiring machines with extraordinary engineering, unmistakable design and extreme rarity. The Centodieci embodies all three, making it a fitting centerpiece in the luxury automotive world surrounding one of the most famous athletes on the planet
