With a net worth of $400 million, Los Angeles Lakers and four-time NBA champion Shaquille O'Neal's collection of cars consists mostly of personalized and custom-made ones because of his athletic body.

Owning around 30 cars, the first in his collection is a Ford F-650. The massive truck with a black outlook was later customized by Shaquille, who spent an extra $60,000 for a Terminator-themed look.

The Ferrari 355 F1 Spider of 1998 with black and grey interiors was inspired by the Formula 1 355 car for its paddle-shift transmission. The striking feature is the 'Shaq F1' license plate.

This Cadillac Escalade, was bought by him after his 3 consecutive winning streaks of championships in 2002. It was customized with a Superman logo in the grille and the seats with two butterfly doors.

Bought in 2007, the Silver Lamborghini Gallardo is customized with an addition of 12 inches at the car's wheelbase for the 7-foot-1 NBA player done by the Gaffoglio Family Metalcrafters.

With a customized open rooftop and leather seats, the 'Shaqcat' or Dodge Challenger R/T Convertible of 2016 is the next one on the list, with 707bhp engine and V8 underneath in a silver look.

The 2017 Polaris Slingshot or the 'Sling Shaq' in a stunning red and black color, is a customized three-wheeler and 4-seater car with no doors and an additional sound system of 18 speakers.

In the 2016 DC movie Suicide Squad, in the scene driven by the Joker, the Vaydor Roadster car was customized in terms of the seats, pedals, and dashboard for Shaquille.

Among his recent ones is the 2020 Rolls Royce Cullinan with very limited customization, including just a bit of length, increased in the front seat of the car for the player's comfort.

The latest one in O'Neal's personalized collection is the 2021 Nikola Badger nicknamed "The Diesel." The monster-looking truck is an electric hybrid with a 906 bhp engine and a hydrogen fuel cell.
